    Yeah, I worked at a fast food place and we got our soda syrup basically free if we served the drinks in Pepsi cups instead of the restaurant’s branded cups.

      The margin difference is significant when you factor in the retail price of the soda is $2.59 and the retail price of the milk at $1.50.

      Culvers can’t pull off a 500% margin with the milk like they do with the soda and likely uses a standard margin of about 20%-25% which still comes out cheaper than a soda. (I have no idea what their margins are, so just guessing.)
