[quote=Anonymous]Just found out my parents will go to random restaurants or places with fountain beverages, purchase the smallest cup, and then will proceed to refill it enough times to fill a large jug they carry into the establishment. My mother just bragged about it to me. She told me she doesn’t think it counts as stealing because they pay for the cup and are allowed free refills, plus they often order food. I guess they do this a few times a week. It can’t be financial because a 2-liter jug is larger than the jug they bring to the restaurant, and they pay for the cup they use to fill it. They are mid-70s. I don’t even know what to say. Neither have cognitive decline, both just had check-ups. I’m so embarrassed and honestly sad for them. My friend once told me her parents do this with napkins and the rolls of plastic bags from the produce department. [/quote]
