Left is the DQ near my office. Consistently does that. Right is the DQ in the next town over.
Nah I'd just buy none and find something better closer. Or if I was desperate buy two of the shit one.

I'd take the five minute trip to the store and buy a half gallon (really 1.5 quarts, assholes) for the same price.
How often are you buying blizzards?
I wouldn’t drive to a dq just for a blizzard
How often do you get ice cream?
20 minutes each way? No. 20 minutes total? Yes. Though, not if I'm working. I'm not getting off later just to get some ice cream.
No.
I wouldn't buy either though because you're paying dollars for something that costs pennies.

Nah, for the obvious gas reasons. Now, is it was a Foster Freeze... still nah, but I'd certainly consider it if I had other business in that town and could get a Boss burger alongside it.
The only place I've seen Foster's Freezes are in California.

It looks like they never expanded out-of-state, so probably not an option for OP.

I keep seeing your comments tonight with kagis used as a verb. I've been interested in trying kagi for a while now. How do you feel their indexing stacks up to Google? I like them from an ethical standpoint, but paying for a browser that doesn't work well might be difficult to pallete I'm afraid.

Ten years ago? Maybe. Not regularly but as a treat. I might talk with the manager about my concerns. Might even take it to corporate if I'm still unhappy. If I still don't like it, then I would just probably go without instead of exerting extra effort.
Now? No way. I'm so fed up with companies giving us less for more, I participate as little as I possibly can.
Without a doubt yes. Why? Because I bet the customer service and wait time at the 2nd one is better.
I’m too damn grumpy for that.
honestly, why would anyone pay for a blizzard, when the only thing they do to it is mix candy with ice cream in a blender? you do that yourselves.
You don't pay for any service you could do yourself?
I don't pay for a lot of services I couldn't do for myself.
I have to drive an hour to even get the blizzard on the left :(
No. For starters I'm a metric kind of guy. Secondly I'm not that into blizzards.
the neat thing about measurements of distance is even if you drive 20 kilometers , you're still driving for miles .
