WINNIPEG, MB
Area man Frank Fehr, 72, has been using the very same McDonald’s cup for the past fifteen years, all under the assumption that he can get free refills all he wants.
“I haven’t paid for a Coke since about 2009,” said Fehr. “You know, me and this McDonald’s cup have been through a lot together. My kids got married, 7 or 8 grandchildren, Anne’s passing–everything. And all the while I’ve been getting free refills.”
The cup is a little worse for wear, but that hasn’t stopped Fehr.
“I’m sticking with this cup until the duct tape doesn’t hold anymore,” said Fehr. “Only suckers and Englishers pay for Coca-Cola.”
Some McDonald’s locations have enacted a no refill policy to prevent Frank from taking advantage of the system.
“Yeah, well, with a Sharpie and bit of ingenuity, I’m guessing this cup will also do wonders at the Wendy’s across the street,” said Fehr. “It’s no problem. I can take my business elsewhere.”
Fehr has already rewritten his will and plans to leave his entire estate to his beloved Coke cup.
