Pop Century Icee Machines Gone??? Say it isn't so!!

[Mickey91]

I just read on facebook that the Pop Century icees are gone. Is this true??
Have to say that the icees on the beverage island are a big selling point for us.

my gradkids loved those ice's ;it was the last thing we would do when we came in at night,hope they reconsider...

[caryrae]

Yeah there have been a few threads about this before.

Welcome to the Woderful World of Cutbacks

[Mickey91]

Yep. The cutbacks are really getting to me. Especially considering the increase in prices.

They were replaced with iced tea machines. From what I read on the message boards, the icee machines were constantly breaking down. I imagine it had more to do with the costs of maintaining them in running condition.

For what it's worth, the icee machine at our local 7-Eleven always seems to be out of service too. Maybe they need a better design.

.....tell Disney to run out to Walmart...and get one of those machines made in China. Then we can have the icee machines back and they can save money too.....

.....the Cola icee was the perfect mixer for cognac....making a great poolside sipper!!!

.....beginning to wonder about our annual return trip to see the mouse?

Because of the lack of an icee machine, I think that might be a first . There is a Walmart in Kissimmee if you wanted to purchase a machine while you're down there. You could probably make a few bucks selling icee's out of your room .

I don't think I've seen seen a working icee machine whenever I've been there. It seemed like the machines were out of order a majority of the time & there was always a sticky mess in that area.

TammiMcMan, tell us more about these iced tea machines--are we talking flavors, sweetened, unsweetened...? I just had Arby's diet blackberry iced tea & I'm on an iced tea kick

Regular tea, sweetened and unsweetend; Green sweetened and White Citrus. Not sure if they'll be switching up or adding more flavors.

It's sad. They were the best reason to get a refillable mug!

[MushuGrl]

When we went in December, there was always one down, and the other wasn't working properly.

Sad. I loved the icees.

However, I love me some sweet tea too!

I agree
and they made good mixers

[KnowThySelf]

To be honest, every time we got the machine is broke anyway.

But with the prices going up, and things being taken away it does get annoying.

[caryrae]

It's nice to just go to the local Super America just down the road anytime and get a frozen coke or cherry one for only 89 cents for any size. I like to get the 44oz cherry one.

[alliekat]

Just came back from a stay at Pop Century, which was great, but I am sorry to report they no longer have the frozen icees as a drink option in the food court. This may have been posted here a while back, but I didn't know. They replaced it with Gold Peak iced tea in several flavors.

[Madame Leona]

I'm sorry that it's gone for those that liked the icees but I'm pretty excited about the tea. My mom is going to be totally geeked about it. She's pretty much addicted to the stuff.

I love flavored iced tea. If only POFQ had the nice drinks that POP has!!
