:thumbup: I got mine. Just wish I would have been in TV to get it and not stuck up north. Although I bet it was less crowded up here in the middle of the day when I got mine. Not as many retirees and a lot more stores around us to go to.

If you get the Wawa app, they also give you other freebies and discounts throughout the year.

I wonder if they bake their bacon in the oven on sheet pans. Making bacon extra crispy might require they put it on the grill and baby sit it until it gets more crispy or frying separate pieces. Just a guess. Maybe this is to discourage people from ordering it when they hear it is sixty cents extra. I know when I order extra salad dressing and if they tell me it is an extra charge it makes me think twice.

all they do is throw it in the deep fryer for 20 seconds---what a rip off. Metro diner is the way to go plus they give 10% off for vets

How about 10% for policeman, firefighters, nurses, etc.

Calling BS on this

Only free Coffee on Thurday’s @ WAWA. Is that relevant to an extra 60 cent charge for crisp bacon? That’s how I always order my bacon “crisp” - - never charged extra and will send it back if not served the way I order it.

Are we really having this discussion over 60 cents?

rivaridger1 04-13-2018 05:36 PM

One of the earlier posters is correct ---- $ 0.70 for a well done steak and maybe $ 0.30 less for rare. Fried egg over easy, how about $0.10 less ? Crispy hash browns, lets upcharge $ 0.25 since they take longer to cook.

Surcharging for crisp bacon simply tells me the restaurant managers are novices or Harvard MBA(s). Both are equally likely to fail at business which requires a lot of personal attention to really succeed.

An establishment which " bills " itself as a " country club " surcharging for " crisp bacon " ? Only in The Villages.

I don't even like bacon. I ask them to leave it off but I still have to pay for it.

Darells, Rae Rae's, Keke's......no additional charge for crisp :)

barnard2204 04-13-2018 10:15 PM

No way that is why we go to restaurants it ain't fast food

Was at Cane Garden today for breakfast and didn’t see anything on the menu about a charge for extra crispy bacon. Breakfast was great as always.

As a direct result of this thread, Pork Belly Futures bottomed out yesterday. Let's all hope their legs get longer.
