Many shops have pre-set weights for food items and in the case of McDs drinks a pre-determined amount which doesn't actually see it filled to the brim. This is what you are buying. So if you order a medium and they put it in a large cup, doesn't entitle you to a full large cup - just equivalent to a medium.
Particularly in the case of coffee shops i'm all up for asking it to be filled to the top and making sure my chip carton hasn't been short changed - but seems to me you take it to far with too high expectations.0 -
If you don't like it, drink and eat at home.0

Do you do the same in the pub if your wine glass isn't filled to the brim? Coffee cups are probably the same; you pay for an *ml serving and the cup is a bit bigger so it doesn't have to be filled to the brim.0

I wonder what the value of 20ml of foamed milk is?
Or was it an Americano and you weren't getting all the water you'd paid for?0 -
So if u got a pint of beer not filled to the top and it had frothy top......“Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.”

Scalded hands, not burnedOne important thing to remember is that when you get to the end of this sentence, you'll realise it's just my sig.0
