We don't think your order is really what you want, so we're making changes! It's a very hot day so we' think you'll be happiest with a $10 medium coke with extra ice! We cooked too many fries for lunch and we don't intend to toss them at closing, so you're also buying two large fries with that! And we've added you to our new autopay program!"
