Ice water......

[skateshome]

You can get ice water from any quick service location at no charge.....correct?

 

[bc7ate9]

Yes. We usually carry a water bottle and get a cup of ice and add water from a fountain.

Cool.....thanks!

Liking this.....we usually bring a case of water when we drive but this time we are traveling by plane so I am looking forward to those free ice water stops & a lighter backpack!

correct. Just ask nicely and they will give you a cup of water.

Anywhere that serves fountain drinks.

It's a must do on any trip where we don't have the dining plan! Savings add up big time if everyone in your party gets a free ice water rather than a soft drink

as others have mentioned - it's free and you can get it anywhere that has fountain drinks. If it is hot we will ask for one cup of ice water and one cup of just ice (it melts quickly!)

just make sure to ask for a CUP of water. Just a heads up too, in Aug, I found that only MK had "good" water, so I had some water flavor packets that I added to the water at other parks and it helped it taste better.

And it's not on the menu. By DBro didn't order it for DSIL because 'it wasn't on the menu'. I said, 'um no. They want to sell you a $3 Coke but will give you water if you ask.' DSIL wasn't happy with him.

As an added note, my wife and I once needed some ice water and decided to stop at a quick service corral and the lines were achingly long. After moo-ing our way in for 10 minutes, when we got to the cashier, he kindly informed us that, for future reference, skip the line and go up to the food-receiving side of things, get a CM's attention, and as a previous poster said, "ask nicely."

It seemed to work just as advertised at another stop later on, but I thought I felt the prickle of a glaring guest stare from my aft direction. It could have been my imagination, or just my own empathic vibrations from knowing what it's like to be hungry and waiting for food. I don't think I slowed down anyone's order but...

Anyone else been told this from a CM or tried it?

Yes. I do this all the time. And I ignore the looks. It's just water.

 

[surfcruiser]

Thanks. I don't want to be "that" guy.

But I did it anyway, after all, the CM's had my back, right? *chuckle*

I suppose somebody could decide you are cutting in line and want to do something about it, but, when they figure out that you are just getting water it makes no difference anyway.
