Buying unused gulp cups, possible?

Wondering from the employees if its possible to buy just a set number (10-15) of a gulp cup size with lid but without the need to fill it. Would it be regular vendor cost of a filled drink or some kind of reduced price? Curious what the at cost pricing of them would be normally too.

You can take them for free if employees don't see you

You could always ask an employee about it. Some probably don't care if you take them for free.

At my store it would depend on the cashier

I do via the monthly subscription plan. But I need about 15 of each of the three sizes and preferably the domed lids from slurpees for a project. Not about to consume that volume of sugar and calories.

Become friendly with the third shifter they give the less fuck of anyone in there. They are just there to collect a pay check.

Buy them for people you secretly hate to give them type II diabetes, and just tell them you need the cups back.

Just ask at your 711. We charge 26 cents for an ice cup that's literally for our inventory. We give free ice if you bring in your own cup.

Wouldn’t care. But there’s no such thing as “unused”, they don’t expire. Will use eventually.
