'Pocket-packing' trend has some customers taking advantage of free condiments and utensils
Some fast-food diners are squeezing a little too much out of the condiment station

As inflation squeezes wallets, some diners are squeezing a little too much out of the condiment station – a trend now dubbed "pocket-packing" – and restaurants are feeling it.

Guests who "pocket-pack" at restaurants or fast-food establishments help themselves to an excessive amount of items such as plastic utensils, straws, napkins and condiments, including sugar and ketchup packets.

Victor Carvalho, owner of the original Dunkin' Donuts location in Massachusetts, recently told Boston television station WCVB he's seen people taking an abundance of items every day.
"People will be people. Their habits don't change because of where they are," Carvalho told the station.

While Carvalho said there's no set policy that limits the amount people can take, he said the business winds up paying for it.
Carvalho said he once saw a woman take a Dunkin' sugar packet out of her purse, sharing that it was "for emergencies."

A Maryland man who asked not to be identified told Fox News Digital he likes to grab extra napkins for his vehicle and has been known to load up on extra Chick-fil-A sauces.

California-based etiquette expert Rosalinda Randall said most business owners want to believe their customers won't take advantage of them, though some do.

"As a customer and a member of a community, keep in mind that nothing is free, like the shopping cart. It is a courtesy provided by the business to make your experience a more pleasant one."
Some people take it too far, She cited examples of people filling a personal 16-ounce thermos with coffee creamer or taking an entire canister of stir sticks for a child's school project.

>completely normal behavior for all of time makes the news

Top signal?

>>516658749 (OP)
I do this whenever I go to a gas station. I have not bought ketchup, mustard, relish, or mayo for years.

>>516659163
No, grabbing 50 packets of whatever at a restaurant or emptying out an entire container of coffee creamer is not normal. Normal people don't do that, just like how normal don't empty out baskets meant for trick or treaters.

>woah, free plastic straws and sugar!!! gimme gimme gimme
when are we going to acknowledge that we are in a recession.

>>516658749 (OP)
these people aren't poor
they just like the thrill of abusing a system
a kilo of sugar costs 1 euro
you're not rescuing your home budget by stealing a handful of 5 gram packets

Jeets got common.

Ghetto blacks and jeets take all of anything offered for free until it is no longer affordable to allow access.

Condiments, utensils, cups, toilet paper, jeets even make videos to teach everyone in Canada to abuse food banks just to save money.

Eventualy you end up with employees having to add ketchup packets and napkins to orders because a percent of customers in some areas take everything.

i can guarantee most are 3rd world migranters

>>516658749 (OP)
They used to give the same amount of sugar/sauce/napkins/whatever to everyone and a lot of it got wasted.
Now they let people take what they need and some take some extra as they already did before. The only difference is now the company saves a lot of money and gets to complain about freeloaders.

>Pocket-packers
Add it

>>516658749 (OP)
Hey, I do this with their jelly and honey packets.

>>516658749 (OP)
>a trend called pocket packing
You mean nigger stealing just like
Halloween candy and then they ape out when you tell them they can’t do that?

>>516658749 (OP)
Free condiments in a country that tips huge amount of condiments on everything they eat? In a country that costs everything for profit, im surprised they havent already ended it or limited it, giving fat mutts free range to shovel condiments into their pockets is a bad idea

i do this at my job except with furniture, electronics, kitchen appliances and customer data. i've fitted out my entire living room and kitchen, next i'm going to complete my home office. it's complementary and if you don't, someone else will. only works in super large orgs where there are tons of people coming and going though. small business cucks could never under the boot of mom n pop

>>516658749 (OP)
Yeah I do this, it’s one of the few nigger behavior I allow myself. I’m not spending $15 for 12 plastic forks for the office when I can snag them at chipotle

>>516659470
I used to take a few packets here and there, not nigger tier amounts but enough brown sugar for a cup of tea/coffee and a couple of sachets of tomato sauce.
I commit the greatest sin of buying mcdonalds tomato sauce packets because they're well portioned

I only do this with the taco bell diablo sauce. Goes great on breakfast sandwiches

>>516658749 (OP)
So now are thet finally going to go back to having this shit not packaged individually for easy theft and instead be in jugs and tubs and shit? Can we go back to a less wasteful and more cultured approach?

In her defence, sugar is a feel-good drug for our brains, and elevates our mood, so it doesn't surprise me that people are carrying around sugar packets in niggerworld. Poor them, God comfort us in this dystopian nightmare.

All my spare monitors for Lan parties I've taken from ewaste at work.

>Pocket-packing
This is just frugal-lite.
Get on my level, I take all sorts of shit from work and public places from toilet roll, cleaning stuff, condiments, even small furniture.

>>516660369
was expecting a jump scare but it's just kots, phew

>>516659163
>normal
You meant to say 'nigger'

>>516658749 (OP)
Guarantee its boomers. I keep an eye on my grandpa and this dude has stolen thousands of pens from the bank, I’ve found boxes of small hotel soaps and shampoos, the funniest was one day out at lunch he tries to snag a salt shaker. What’s retarded is that he never uses these pens or soaps/shampoos. I dont know why they’re like this

>>516660858
based. unironically you can make easy money from ewaste and facebook marketplace

That's because you're a nigger.

people are hoarders by evolution
old people are extra hard hoarders
always been this way

>take 1
the nigger litmus test

>>516659298
Ok but the number isn't specified. Taking 4 napkins every time you visit a store is normal. Taking a few extra straws is normal.

The article is not talking about the spastics that fill 5 gallon jugs with slushy, they are talking about

>Carvalho said he once saw a woman take a Dunkin' sugar packet out of her purse, sharing that it was "for emergencies."

>A Maryland man who asked not to be identified told Fox News Digital he likes to grab extra napkins for his vehicle and has been known to load up on extra Chick-fil-A sauces.

Equating then with "taking it too far"

If anything this is just evidence of the cowardice that surrounds DC.

>This is just frugal-lite.
it's an illusion of frugality
the frugal thing would be to NOT eat at the establishment at all but cook at home

>>516661176
If I meant to say nigger I would have said nigger nigger.

jobs are fine, spending habits are fine and loans are fine. Where's that recession you're talking about?

my mom has 50 packets of sugar in her glove compartment. glad she saved $1 and now probably has a permanent bug issue with her car
