Free Rootbeer Floats at Sonic tonight for the next few hours till midnight
Edited on Thu Jun-07-07 09:32 PM by greenbriar
hehe...me and family just had 3


granted they are kinda small, but we have 3 sonics within 5 minutes from our house so we made the rounds.


I hadn't had a RB float in YEARS

1. Don't EVER post about Sonic again, or things will get VERY ugly
right about in the region of my taste buds.

The cruel bastards advertise on some of the cable channels here, and the closest Sonic is 400 miles away!

(Yes, I've eaten there, and dearly crave to be able to do so again, in case you haven't figured it out.)

6. Bah! Try 2400 miles away
assuming they have them in CA. (Root beer float lovers appear to have crashed their site, so I can't check.)

I remember Sonic from long-ago summers in Berryville, Ark., also home to one of the first Wal-Marts. It seemed like (and was) just a plain old discount store...

12. That location was ready for me
and the others like me. They had a waitress outside with them premade on a tray. I was in their parking lot less that 20 seconds.

4. Bastards!
The closest one is still way too far away. Why, oh why do they advertise here?

10. I wish they did coke floats
There are few things I dislike the taste of more than root beer.

And to think the original Sonic is less than a mile from my place.
