Got to read this scam on ...The Loaded Potato soup.. So today my daughter and I went out to get our Wednesday loaded potato soup and I decided to try this little test at home since I've caught other restaurants cheating us out of our money when it comes to how much food we are really getting for the dollar in ounces.
I purchased 2 large loaded baked potato soups at 5.59 each that is before taxes. The soups come out to $6.17 per large soup that's taxes included.
If you order the "Quart" , Which is the "largest" "value" more for your buck deal.
it is $16.53 with tax.
The difference is $4.19
According to Panera the quart is 2 1/2 large. That's actually not quite the case. You're paying $4.19 more for not even half a cup of a measuring cup.
Because they don't fill it to the top so really you're getting only 2 cups and you're paying $4.19 more if you buy into the "Quart purchase"
if you guys don't believe me go to Panera check it out for yourselves. I used water at home just to prove a point of how much it will hold. 2 cups equals 1 quart. in the picture I'm showing my index finger that's how much room is left in the cup and that's how much you get because they don't fill it to the top anyways. So for $4.19 more you're buying AIR LOL.
The whole time we've all been getting scammed.
Corporate you guys need to redo the math because you've been BUSTED!!!!
by the way I called the Penera location tonight in Goodyear and notified them of this Little scam they got going on they mentioned they would bring it to the managements attention let's see if that's really true.
4/13/17 after further review you're actually getting less than half a cup there is an arrow inside the quart which shows where the cut off is and it's actually less then so you're actually really only getting about 3 tablespoons more for $4.19 SHAME...
According to Peneras customer service website they claim to sell 8oz 12oz and 32oz= quart soup's. I would say somebody needs to go back to school to take a little more math because you're paying more money for less food bottom line...
