strawberry OP , 30 minutes ago to nostupidquestions in Instead of having customers donate a dollar and giving them a coupon book "worth" $30, why doesn't KFC just donate those $30 themselves (or even half)?

hm actually profits on drinks aren't as good as I was expecting. if I'm seeing correctly, a 5 gallon box of Pepsi syrup costs $105

if I do my math correcy that comes to $3.5/gallon (1 part syrup, 5 parts water)

we sell that (best price) $8.38/gallon and worst price ~$20/gallon

so yeah actually for the medium drinks that's a crazy profit margin of what like 85%? add to that the fact that there's ice, so you're not actually getting the cup full, I wouldn't be surprised with a margin of like 95%

that's why I give those for free half the time lol

can't really find anything else, not sure how to read these charts

only reason I go for that is if I'm paying cash because I'm willing to pay that little bit extra to not have change in my pocket

definetly true. I need to look at the next truck order, I'm curious what they're paying for this stuff. see what sorts of margins they've got.

I know that on cake for example they've got a ~50% profit

never bothered to figure out the other stuff

not losing profits? some of those coupons are half off, no way their profit margins are that high. but I'm sure that its outweighed by the extra foot traffic or something
