Wonder what they'll have at the soda fountain to drink (I used to always get a Diet Coke as shopping makes me thirsty)
Thank God they'll still have Churros! :D:

Pepsi! Pepsi! Pepsi! Or maybe RC.

It's all a game of leverage. Coke and Costco will eventually agree on a price and the world will begin to rotate again.

I heard that the coke beverage that they have in stock, they will sell. They are still waiting on if there will be any more being ordered in the future. I might change my mind and go to Smart and Final or wait for a store that has a beverage sale.

Hey, if Coke can get our Pizza Hut here to serve Coke products (Only one in the world that does so), they can agree with Costco.

Also, I am one of those that can know Mickey is a person in a suit but also know for sure he is real at the same time.

The Pizza Hut down here (Savannah) sells Coke products as well.. Could just be a Georgia thing. In fact I can only think of one restaurant in town that serves Pepsi products..

Wouldn't surprise me really... (if a parent put them up to it).. I've heard many questions for crush, and seen the parents egging the kids into asking them... Everything from 'how do turtles pee?' to 'where do turtle babies come from?' and the like.....

Some parents lack the scruples to know what they are doing could damage someone elses child.. They only know 'I paid my admission just like anyone else, I can do whatever I want...'

some SGT's are done as a puppet act, you see :)


and, FWIW.. My 9 year old 'knows' the realities of characters.. She says as much, but in the parks , she wouldn't dare compromise the situation.. and she still enjoys the hugs and personal time with the characters :)
