...why would anyone pay more for a medium or large?

Drinks to go account for the majority of drink sales.

My dad drinks anywhere for 1.5 to 3 glasses of tea per meal. If a small is less than the size of a regular glass, that affects the number times he has to get up to refill his cup.

So, pure laziness?

I am asking about the customer’s reason, not the reataurant’s reason.

If you're on a long road trip it could make sense to get the biggest size but generally yes only lazy people get anything other than the small.

Getting up 4 times to refill a kid-sized cup is just weird. Plus you have to account for the ice necessary to make the tea cold when it comes out of the machine hot, so it would probably be more like 6 trips because the kid-sized cup would essentially be filled to the top with ice and the tea would only account for maybe 40% of the volume.

Filling up a kiddy cup 8 times to save 40 cents makes you look immature, greedy, and cheap all at the same time

Maybe if Americans drank soda like the rst of the world — without cramming ice to overflowing then adding what is already superchilled-soda — it would be better.

What part of hot brewed tea needing to be chilled didn't you understand?

And I was talking about tea, so why did you cite me with commentary about soda?
