So picture this: It’s Veterans Day. My son-an actual veteran, not just a guy who owns camo shorts-rolls up to Sonic ready to enjoy the 1/2-price shake proudly advertised on the We Salute website.
Seems straightforward, right?
WRONG.
The moment we asked about the discount, the energy shifted faster than a cherry limeade hitting hot pavement. The “We Salute” program apparently turned into the “We’ve Never Heard of That In Our Lives But Good Luck To You” program.
In the end, no shake discount, no salute, not even a confused shrug. Just vibes-and not the good kind.
Honestly, I’m convinced this Sonic location is beefing with happiness, patriotism, and maybe dairy itself. I don’t know what they’re going through, but I hope they heal.
Until then, we will be getting our shakes from literally anywhere else, including but not limited to gas stations, vending machines, and possibly a blender at home.
Do better, Sonic. Veterans and milkshakes, deserve justice.
