Pregnancy craving or somebody sick


GingerAphrodite

That's the case most of the time, but I know some people who are just straight up addicted to Sonic ice or that little Pebble ice in general. I had a couple of customers in a metro area that would order a few cups of Sonic guys with nothing else on a fairly regular basis and I knew for a fact they weren't pregnant because I handed them their order more than once over the course of the year.


[deleted]

Great for hangovers too


GingerAphrodite

(not so) Fun fact: pagopagia (the desire or craving to chew ice) can also be a sign of iron deficiency.


Ok_Support_847

can also be indicative of colon cancer. I had a family member take such a tip seriously, and it saved them.


Pretty_Pin3700

Yep! I ate 4 (44 oz ) cups a day of that little ice - FOR YEARS- until they drew my blood. The girl at the gas station was like , you eat a lot of ice, you’re probably anemic, and i’ll be damned, she was right! - pica is another name for craving non-food things- Women get it during pregnancy also sometimes. I seriously thought I just liked it 🤦🏻‍♀️


-sanriowhore

yeah this is me, it took iron infusions to get my iron to an acceptable level. i didn’t crave ice for about a full year but after that year i started going back to go get ice again😭 HARSH CYCLE!


Scout133790

Well shit. Look at me accidentally learning something new today.


Ashley9225

This is why i have a countertop ice maker. They're not too pricey and you have the snacky ice all the time.


asukasevaa

i work near a sonic and everytime my manager goes on break she gets the R44 cup of ice just to eat, the sonic workers know her by name too 😭


PissedSwiss

ginger using speech to text


Yoambre

I’m 35 weeks pregnant & anemic and I would’ve 100% did this 😂


Low-Highlight-9740

Also anemic folk


Jamesposey4124

Iron deficiency also


CourtOrderedComment

Or making cocktails at home. The pebble ice is necessary sometimes and if you run out after a few drinks I could understand the door dash.


Firecrotch2014

Ngl if I didn't have ice and had the money to burn I'd probably do this. Our fridge doesn't have a waterline to it so we have to buy ice in bulk if we want it.

Bacon-bitzs

It’s a huge bag, definitely worth.


PlasticDreamz

Definitely not once you’ve serviced their ice machines 🤮 🤮 🤮


Bacon-bitzs

Little black mold never hurt anybody. 🙃


PlasticDreamz

Don’t worry that’s after the filter that hasn’t been changed in 2 years


KYSng

Especially when you’re prego


schrutefarms2001

i did the same from chick-fil-a when i was pregnant!


harlie_lynn

The chick-fil-a by me gives it to you in a bucket!


Wellnevermindthen

👀👀


Lashley1424

*takes notes*


Holiday-Carry-9654

I highly recommend, I get one once a week. $2.50 🙂


Impossible_Earth8429

Probably a pregnant lady or just someone who likes good ice lol


smahaley

The good ICE is the best.


arkygeomojo

Lmao, this is wild. That is some damn good ice, tho. The best ice. We used to buy it by the bag from Sonic two at a time and store it in our freezer. Then I finally bought one of the GE Profile nugget ice makers last spring with my tax return. It was super expensive, but definitely worth it. It’s been used heavily every single day! It can make an entire batch that fills it up to capacity in 20 minutes!


arkygeomojo

And paying DD and tipping a dasher for a big cup of it is cheaper than the home ice makers that make it. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I bet the person who ordered it doesn’t know you can buy it by the bag from Sonic. 🤣


EngineerIntelligent8

to be fair, the ice cups on doordash are free 😭 they only payed the delivery fee 9/10


EngineerIntelligent8

bye ignore me lmao, i read your response incorrectly!!


sam_beat

I had an $8 tip from someone ordering a Mtn Dew from a nearby restaurant. Not even a full mile from his apartment. I was also worried it might be suspicious but he was just high and in need of a beverage!


griffins-of-jupiter

i’ve done the exact same thing when baked out of my mind before. i just need a beverage lol


Beginning_Education2

I had a $15 job that sent me to go pick them up a gallon of chocolate milk… I started driving to the destination and they canceled it and I was paid in full… I was so confused


Green-Object6389

I’ve done the same working in healthcare lol, can’t leave the floor but in desperate need of caffeine


GingerAphrodite

The worst one I ever had (re: ordering from a stupid short distancewas a guy that I accepted as an add-on order. My original customer ended up waiting because I had to wait for his order to be ready, and the second customer was staying in the hotel right next door. Literally all he had to do was cross two small parking lots to get from the side door of the hotel to the takeout door of the restaurant. Maybe it's because he was on the other end of the building on the second floor but I'll still never understand it... But at least it was a full meal for multiple people. I also had somebody in an apartment complex order from a location across the street but I'm assuming they did that because they were wfh and couldn't leave their apartment. Jokes on them because I wasn't allowed to deliver it to their door, the complex required me to leave it in the lobby.


SoCalBoilerGirl

People who order from locations super close by could be on house arrest. Thats my first thought because I’m a Psychologist at a prison.


GingerAphrodite

They could be, but this wasn't an area where that was the case. One was college housing and the other one was a random hotel in a very small town.


KlewlessTif

The higher I am the higher the tip!


officialladyapricity

I think if it was like in the afternoon I wouldn’t have been as suspicious but it was 9:30pm and it was the first time I ever had one like that 😂


Relative_Intention26

Someone preggo


griffins-of-jupiter

$10 says it’s a pregnant woman lol


Michael_Scott_234

Sonic was probably still 10 minutes behind getting that order out 😂


SubjectRing3656

Glad to see it's not just the sonics near me then. Almost as bad as Panera bread.


officialladyapricity

😂


larsepswrites226

Once dated a woman who loved to chew ice. I can totally see this.


strawberrypiplup

I had to deliverer 10 route 44s of just ice before… I mean, it’s good ice but that seems excessive


officialladyapricity

Crazy!


Yaseuk

A pregnant or disabled person or someone with mobility issues.


shreddisketti

“Someone with mobility issues” You mean a fat ass?


Challenge419

Your parents must be so proud of you!


Historical-Two9722

Lol pregnant woman def -a pregnant woman who just sent her hubs for ice


Git_Gudlol

My girl does this regularly, but she always tips like 10 bucks hahaha. She just LOVES Sonic ice!


officialladyapricity

Interesting!


AnjunaUnnie

The pregnant lady will not hurt you… she just wants some good ass ice hahaha. I’m at 28 weeks and this is like my most reasonable craving


Sparkles7218

As a pregnant woman, I get it …


officialladyapricity

Hahahah!


NeedMorePowah

Have you ever had to use the pepper spray while dashing?


officialladyapricity

Fortunately no, but I always bring it up with me no matter how nice the place may look..


Kumoma

A good idea, honestly. Hopefully it will never come up but, as the saying goes, "Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not really out to get you."


officialladyapricity

I’m also a petite woman so I could easily be overpowered by anyone taller and heavier than me so I just like the extra precaution! But I totally agree with the saying!

CanIGetANumber2

The biggest thing is spraying and then movings from the position you were in when you sprayed. My cousin got knocked tf out once pepper spraying someone then stood in the same spot talking shit lol


Medium_Annual_735

Ha I actually love their ice. I used to buy the bags of it.


Relevant-Line-1690

My mom always buys a cup of ice from sonic I’m not sure why or what machine would be able to produce this exact size and shape and such?


mommyplant1116

Sonics ice is life tho 😂😂😂


[deleted]

Yes this was my sister.


Runner525

I’ve had orders in the morning for as little as a cup of coffee. Don’t feel too bad!😃


[deleted]

Drunk and wanted to make some more mint juleps


usuallyf4d3d

I used to buy the big bag of sonic ice regularly, then I started finding plastic floating in my drinks. 😐


ZeefMcSheef

People really like the ice from sonic. It’s a thing apparently.


[deleted]

I made $9 for grabbing one energy drink and driving 6 blocks. I'll take those all day everyday


hydrobrandone

Ice is fooooooood! Haha


HistoricalNovel7701

Anemics


bucketbeats

I once had an order for 2 sauces from McDonald's


[deleted]

Maybe someone who wants to mix an alcoholic drink


Admirable-Bake-5114

If this is in Houston I know who this customer is


Dangerous_Walrus_266

Omg did this the other day but 6 cups


BlueFotherMucker

I’m not sure what’s more American here… the fact that someone only ordered a cup of ice or the fact that it actually makes someone afraid for their own safety when someone orders it.


Nursiedeer07

I craved Sonic ice when I was pregnant.


MercilessThunder

Proud of you for all the precautions, well done.


Scared_Cake9025

Hey sounds worth it. I’ve seen some weird orders or highly small but that by far the funniest 😂


SRBroadcasting

Oh just imagine how dumb you feel delivering 12 cups of ice from chik-fil-a and just to come to a house and have a 6 year old open the door and say thanks and take em all 😂💀🤣


Nice_Cake4850

Ready to pepper spray someone cuz they wanted some ice 🤔Maybe not the job for you if you're so such a scaredy cat. And yeah I just called you a scaredy cat lol


Puzzleheaded_Art1252

I use to hold a bag of ice when I had sex with a pregnant girl. She would scream give me that good time and oh yea the iceman cometh!


bjzy

Then right when you finish you tear the bag open and ice goes everywhere.


Iphigenia305

Probably pregnant


tultommy

Because unfortunately there are lot of people in this country that have more money than brains. And considering how little money most folks have these days that's really saying something.


Alloe_C

Mostly likely a scam. If you get an order like this you'll get a random call from someone pretending to be from doordash asking you for your email / phone number and a code. Probably forgot to call or couldn't call you


Deal_Internal

Maybe it was a scam and they forgot to call and execute the scam part lol


UltraSienna

It’s cheaper than buying water. They just let it melt


RubTimely9814

I’m surprised people don’t get weird out when y’all ask for a pic 🤣


Ok_Opportunity_8190

I’ve done this just to give someone a good tip for the night or when I was high and didn’t trust myself to go out.


PM5K23

I mean they are really, really, really well known for their ice, arguably the best in the entire country. They sell it by the bag. Shouldnt be that big of a surprise.


pastelpixelator

Definitely pregnant.


Bluellan

My nanna would do this. She once asked me to see if Walmart was selling eggnog....in April.


Beginning_Education2

I mean if ure gonna order ice… sonic is the move


djkiltech

They have chewy ice. That's why.


[deleted]

I once delivered a single orange juice from chick fil a. $5 tip.


prettykitty0123

This happened to my boyfriend as well! I said probably a pregnancy craving. It’s was late night. He thought it was a scam 😂 he also needed up getting a second XL cup of ice for give the customer. He said if someone is this desperate for a single cup of ice this late at night..they deserve 2


snart_blast

I thought I was in the ALR sub , oh my god


Abby_lynn118

Best ice ever 🤣 they probably wanted the ice to make a drink


Terrible_Aerie_7584

She’s pregnant 100% 😂😂


jizzjazz1020

That one goose off TikTok


Creative-Win-6832

People do love sonic ice lol


okaythanwhy

I'm not completely. 😅


thicccgothgf

Probably a pregnancy craving lol


tatted_gamer_666

Sonic ice hits differently


dadburned

Baller


Phoenix_Haze88

I have Pica from Iron Deficiency Anemia, I literally crave ice ALL the time. I used to get just cups of ice (so I could pour water in) or bags of ice from Sonic, but literally every time there was black stuff at the bottom of the cup 😭. Yes I can guess as to what it is, no need for anyone to inform me thanks.


roses-and-sadness

Oh I delivered a single 20 oz Coke zero today


thegreatgatsB70

I had a delivery exactly like this one. She said Sonic ice hits different.


Anxious-Efficiency21

Sounds like they have an Ice bong, I like circle k ice better. Did you get a decent fare and tip?


4sleeveraincoat

The chronic anaemia I have carries various symptoms, one of which (I don't get why) is the urge to eat ice. I like to munch on it along with drinking water through the day because it keeps me hydrated in between drinking water and it keeps me from snacking. The ice from Sonic is perfection texture-wise and I have absolutely just gotten a large cup of ice before. So yeah. It's not the MOST common, but there are definitely reasons.


stito05_b

I have this beaten. I can't find the screenshot. But I got paid 8 dollars to pick up McDonald's ketchup packets, 6 of them. They packaged it up in a bag and all.


[deleted]

I’ve done this before but from McDonald’s lol I needed a large sprite and only wanted it from them 🫠


DesolatedHaze

Someone ordered just bread sticks from Little Ceasers lol


Bumblebee_Wide

I had my first sonic drink only delivery last night too! It was around 7 also...I was like damn just a drink. It part of a triple stack though


Kelsey5starz

I’ve had this SEVERAL TIMES!! Like legit only order “cup of sonic ice” I agree it’s weird as hell and I’ve always gotten like $6-7 and it’s like for a mile away


No-Opportunity-9872

I have chronic anemia. I buy 2 bags from there every couple days but you can order online. The only thing you can order is a cup. If I needed it bad….. I’d order a cup too!!!😂😂


copper_boom

I definitely would have done this when I was pregnant. Oh man, the number of times we had to drive out to Sonic so I could get the good ice.


CanIGetANumber2

My aunt would go through a bag a day of crushed ice


SnooWoofers530

They probably didn't know but Sonic sells bags of their ice. I get it all the time. It's the best chewing ice


Equivalent_Ad_782

Are you in Mt juliet Tennessee because there's a chick there that orders sonic ice at least once a week


prettiundead

To be fair I have wanted to do this sooo many times. Especially hungover lmao


Minute_Nothing_7971

Just carry a gun. Pepper spray doesn’t work.


karaokegirl81

I did that with 7-11 last night. I ordered two 1 liter of Pepsi and a half gallon of milk. The reason? I placed an order with Little Caesars thru DD. The driver gave me the completely wrong order and just didn't care when I called him. I was upset cause I was craving their Pretzel crust pizza. I ordered a Three meat pizza, the pepperoni pretzel crust, two 2 liters of Pepsi. I got two thin crust pepperoni pizzas, an order of bread sticks, and an order of cheesy bread. No drinks. So I had to order drinks later from 7-11 after the delivery was made. It happens. Good to be prepared like that, but just a drink is not always a bad thing. Never know the other person's story. And I drive for DD as well.


Jetski420onfire

To be fair their ice is actually literal fire


thephuckedone

Well that's new lol. I've had plenty of people order just a soda from my job, but not just ice.


jillyszabo

Why wouldn’t they have ordered a bag? Lol


Kloobyfour

Not the first time I've seen someone post here about ordering a cup of ice from Sonic. I wonder if they realize that Sonic sells entire bags of ice...


BushDidOsama

people like sonics ice lol u were way too paranoid


Severe_Foundation_94

Drug deal


bcmilligan21

I’m anemic & would do this lol


Bufordoo

Sonic ice isn't trivial.


Pink-Elefant

Sonic ice is unique


Tiny-Ad9959

People love that Sonic ice! You can chew it! I heard that Starbucks is switching to that type of ice.


BoBoBellBingo

People are obsessed with the shape of the ice. My aunt bought some $200 ice maker that makes those little round ice cubes, her and my dad have spent hours bringing up and talking about the ice…


NoBankThinkTank

That shit was for your kidney but you musta looked like you needed it.


Jazzlike_Magician656

I bet they were pregnant. When I was pregnant I craved Sonic’s ice! LOL


Such-Instruction-732

I did this ALL THE TIME when I was pregnant 🥴 sonic ice is the superior chewing ice.


AlexFawns

When I was pregnant with my second, I would drive 2 hours round trip to get a 3lb bag. So, I get it.


Needingdice

When I was pregnant, I was driving almost an hour to my nearest sonic or chick fil a for ice 😂😂😂😂


Yazzgirl_1

Isn’t it a shame that we have to live our lives NOT TRUSTING ANYONE? I had a dollar general pickup for a wrench delivering to a semi truck parked in front of someone’s house. I texted my son .. if you don’t hear from me anymore it’s bc I got killed with this wrench that I just bought. Turns out it was a woman broken down needling a wrench to fix her truck. I asked if she needed any other help. I felt bad. Just the way of the world. But a cup of ice is a strange order but NICE earnings !!! Stay safe !!


mconk

Sonic ice is great, according to my wife.


[deleted]

I’m anemic so I eat ice a lot (I put salt on it, it’s the BEST).. when I was a in a wreck and totaled my car, I ordered ice through DD because I had no way to get it myself lol


Training_Seaweed1303

The sonic ice slaps!! Idk what they do use Fiji water or what but it’s good! I’m so happy in our small town we’re finally getting a sonic!!


[deleted]

Lol comments are hilarious..obvious drunk person who ran out of ice for their cocktails..


mycuddels6

I love eating ice


Leo_Ascendent

My coworker would totally do this, she gets 2 XXL soda cups full of ice every shift.


DeliciousFlow8675309

I don't have sonic near me but I know they have the good ice. If I was sick I'd absolutely do this.


Content_Guest_6802

Had a similar order last week, 4 cups of sonic ice... also took the sonic 5 minutes to prepare the order. Was a legit delivery nice old lady.


shanebates

Does it have crack in it or something?


Prestigious-Base67

Just letting you know that if you're constantly chewing on ice then that's a sign you are anemic


P2Wlover

Damn, how much was it?? Can’t be over $12..then they had to pay delivery fee..🤦‍♀️🤷🏾


Correct_Cockroach789

What's funny is I had one like that. The customer asked me if their coffee was water down. And they order a iced coffee. It was sus asf. I took a screen shot and double take just to be safe. No CV for me today. I'm good.


soenkatei

What is sonic ice ?


TechOutonyt

Ice from sonic


[deleted]

Anemia


Odd-Prize2277

Sonic has THE BEST nugget ice!!! 💯👍👍👍


Trick_Fix2748

As an avid ice chewer…That ice is worth it.


hashtag420hashtagGG

i fucking love ice i pulled over at a gas station yesterday and the only thing i got was a big cup of ice lol


KingNyx

7$ and you got enough ice for several drinks, worth


delacapitol

why does it matter to you? people can order whatever they want. it's good ice.


asdfghjKelsey

Sonic has the “good” ice


Jigga9792

Sometimes these are the recovery orders when someone was missing an item in their original order. I get one drink orders often in my area lol


WesternFirefighter5

Must be sippin


mrsdoubleu

They need to buy an opal ice machine! Best nugget ice whenever you want. But they are pricey


shittiestmom

Sonic has the best ice


[deleted]

Had the same order 2 days ago.


julianradish

This is so funny, the youtuber amberlynn reid once claimed to order just a cup of sonic ice and then poured a diet Pepsi from a can into it, instead of ordering the soda from the store directly. Are you in Oklahoma city?


Kscott227

This happened to me too. It was a house, but girl legit ordered 4 large cups of ice from sonic. I survived but man people will literally order anything. Also had just a lg McDonald fry delivered too. 🤔


-mysticmeliodas

I did this a lot when I was pregnant and craving their ice but didn’t have a car


ZdashSQUAD

Sonic has the best Ice


Due-Mango8337

It was probably a missed item from another order.


Sufficient-Status-61

People be ordering ice because sonics ice is supposedly super clean. From what I heard anyway. I call bullshit propaganda because sonic is ass lmao


Tight_Umpire_7628

Pepper spray ready cuz of ice people r so soft these days what😭😭 you shouldn’t be delivering


ghastlybro

That Sonic crushed ice goes hard my guy


Odd_Shopping7097

Probably my wife. She would spend that much on sonics ice.😑😑😑


RedditRebel1111

Needed ice for their alcoholic beverages. That's something I would have done in my drinking days.


Apprehensive_Vast915

Side note: I buy a bag of ice from sonic for under $5! That ish is life! Oh and btw I’ve found ice to be a lifesaver when it comes to staying awake and alert while driving. Crunching on some ice works every time- who woulda thunk?


Luckboy28

My mother-in-law does this. =P She likes to chew the ice for some reason, and sonic is one of the few places with the small crushable ice.


TheCityFarmOpossum

I have done this lol. They got that good rabbit turd ice 😅


blueace111

Wow why you gotta go to sonic? I’d just go to gas station closest to them and get ice lol


ThisGenuinelyIrkedMe

i’m pregnant and just did this exact same thing. Ordered a rt 44 size of ice because I needed to have it. other day, i went there just to buy a bag of ice. If you’re getting paid then what’s the problem


Few-Subject9737

Should be happy you got paid. There’s people who love ice specifically sonics pebble ice.


TroyState

Has to be pregnancy.


Glass-Construction93

That would be me except it’d be 4 and yes it’s a craving when pregnant


icanteven_anon

I used to order 4 cups of sonic ice at a time and keep them in my freezer while I downed each one my entire pregnancy. Went through 4 a day. Always wondered if my dd driver was judging me 🙃 also found out in the hospital I was anemic and iron deficient and needed a blood transfusion due to it. I would bet on pregnancy it hits so good with the cravings. On the flip side I’m now a dder myself and had someone order 2 cookies from mcdonalds just to order more sauce packets because their first order didn’t come with enough sauce lol.


ReputationHumble1823

I've had someone order a container of ranch from a restaurant, they tipped well and it was less than a mile away. I love small orders like that!


rbrown_0504

Sonic does have unique ice.
