New Applebee's Shops

Ours are $25 reimbursement and $8 fee for the curbside. I don't have time to sit down in the restaurant so I have not done those. I saw an Applebee's commercial that said that Steak was now on the 2 for $20!
Don't the 2 for 20 entrees seem a little on the small side? Just wondering if the inside dining entrees are larger. Not complaining since it is still a good amount of food.
My 2 for $20 lasts me for 4 days, and I end up throwing out something on day five.

The boneless wings only last me about a day but I did end up throwing out some oriental salad. Probably should eat the salad first but I am crazed about their wings.
Here, it is 2 for $22, and $25 in the city. So, after tax, there is no money left for beverage, and only $1 for tip. The reimbursement is the same regardless of the location in the US? $25 reimb and $8 fee? Is it the same for all locations? By the way, gas here is also higher, $3.71 at the cheapest place in town, Costco. And bridge toll is $5-6. Don't you think MSC's should adjust their fees at higher priced cities?
Here in a DC suburb, I can get a 2 for $20 and a fountain drink for $23. The rest is the tip. If you don't want to go over reimbursement, get the menu items that will keep you under.
Yes, it would be nice if the MSC covered our expenses to do their shops, but they don't. The shops still fly off the boards, so they have no reason to increase the reimbursement. I don't even see them bonused.

I am saying that they should look at adjusting the reimbursement for higher priced chains in certain areas, not just expenses.

Everytime I go to a place like this I get water. Unless it requires a non-alochic drink then I get tea.
For the take out, we have to get a drink.

When I did my I did not have to get a drink
I’ve done several curbside pickups and a drink was not required.
You both are right...I'm thinking of my sports bar!

I have four scheduled in one week. Time to break out the elastic band pants.

I got 2 as well. The 2 for $20 food lasted three days.
The rotation has changed to 90 days in my area. Bad news for me. That means I can't do any in July. (Well, maybe one at the very end of the month).
They got snapped up in my area.

The 3 Cheese Chicken Penne pasta was so good.
I hven't tried that yet/ From the reviews on this thread, it seems really good!

Three in one week? Why?

I did 5 Denny's in one week. Ugh. It was interesting that the slower the restaurant, because they were further away from the city center, the worse the customer service and the food. It was also interesting that the manager's styles lined up the same. The truck stops and the ones next to a nicer hotel had the best customer service and freshest food. Same for Applebees. I didn't know that many have a wife/husband team of restaurant manager and kitchen manager and they can be transferred together without choice sometimes.
Because it's a LOT of calories.

Ah, I don't count calories, LOL. But even so, I eat small portions--one of those Oriental Grilled Chicken salads is 3 meals for me... I never get their awful dressing and a nice vinaigrette is low calorie, if that's a concern for others besides you. There are all kinds of low cal options if you look for them.
JAS, I spread my meals out over 3 or 4 days as well. If I did 3 food shops in one week, I would be too tempted to eat. I try to only eat when I am hungry. I liked the Grilled Chicken Salad! And you were right; the dressing was awful.
Applebee's makes it easy to do low calorie. Instead of fries with my Riblet Basket, I get green Beans. I always opt for a diet soda or unsweetened tea. For the chicken entrees, I ask for less rice and more veggies (a Chipotle trick).

Last time I asked for a side to be substituted, I was charged extra and was not served the right item. Made my evening of reporting a living hell. Why won't folks just follow the instructions?
Some thing they are not allowed to substitute, and others require a charge. For instance, with my riblet basket, instead of fries I get the green beans. They gave me the fries on the side and no green beans, and they charged me for the green beans. Thankfully, I can smell a fry from 30 paces. They made it right before I left.
