Quicktrip 291 hi , Independence, Mo. I have a problem with their statement of fresh Donuts and then the 1/2 off after 3pm. My first comment is that at this location, you go in before 8pm and the 1/2 price is not provided because they claim the donuts were just put in the case. My question is how is 1/2 price after 3pm determined. Some say its automatic in the register and only goes into effect at 3pm. If so, how can they charge full price after that and when does 3pm discount end. The cashier says the donuts are fresh and just put in the case, which brings My second comment. If those Donuts are put in the case as fresh before 8pm on say Wednesday, HOW can they call them frresh at 8am Thursday Morning. 12 hour, or actually more from the time they were actually baked are not fresh donuts. So basically QT sells day old dounts at full price and two day old donuts at 1/2 price, sometimes. At Quick Trip you don't know how old that Donut your buying are. Thats why Dunin Donuts lost business. They started selling donuts that were old and stale instead of the way it use to be with donuts being less than 3 or 4 hous old. read more
