>I never knew a drink could be SO small

8oz = about 230ml
That’s a regular coffee in Japan!
12oz=350ml! Is that considered a normal sized coffee in America? It’s too much, I think.

(For a beer, on the other hand, only at least 500ml will do! )

Anyways, McDonalds in Japan is giving away coffee starting today. But not only on Mondays.
And not mocha.

OMG…finally got my free Mocha on today and they were totally “Greta-sized” but tasted even better than I remembered! Long live la McCafé!

Ha! That is hilarious! Even funnier (and stranger!) is the fact that I have not yet taken advantage of this super cool offer. I guess I’m gonna have to make up for it next week ten times over!!

And how funny that you called it “Greta-size”, I am totally gonna steal that line. Awesome!

After waiting a whole long week with anticipation of this iced Mocha quenching my thirst, I stopped at my local McD’s on my way home from work excited at the prospect of a free tasty treat. It was a hot day (well for Santa Cruz it was hot), and when my drink order came up…..I stood there looking stunned!!! I never knew a drink could be SO small…it was the perfect “Greta-size”. I thought I was Alice in wonderland and everything had shrunk. But that won’t keep me from a repeat freebie next Monday

All the neighbors’ children in my apartment complex! Hey, there’s no minimum age requirement on those free mochas, right?

Ha, Elyse, I can totally see you doing that! Who are these non-coffee fan friends of yours? I need them to come with me next Monday too!!

Thanks to your post, I promptly went out and got one. It was delicious! But the free size is too stinkin’ small so I had to upgrade, which, of course, was their strategy all along.

Next Monday, I’m gonna recruit some non-coffee-drinking friends to come with and just have them give me their drinks once we get outside.

Thanks for the tip. Next Monday, with McD’s right around the corner from my house, I know where I’ll be headed for a beverage that suits my budget!
