Lots of competition + high volume of services brings the price down. <BR/><BR/>Sonic--Sonic is great. From 2-4pm it's "Happy Hour" and soft drinks and limeades are half price. The reason why I couldn't figure out the ordering thing is because I went inside and there's no counter--since it started as a driveup restaurant, and where they have walk in they make you use a telephone to call the staff and give them your order, and then they walk it out to you from behind closed doors. <BR/><BR/>The cherry limeades have a cherry at the bottom and they squeeze fresh lime juice over the red mix.

I once went into a nail shop w/ freshly waxed brows (a facialist had just shaped them the day before) & the manicurist asked me if I wanted a brow wax!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
