Speaking of Rita's, the one at 15th and Spruce-ish has indoor seating. What is going on?

Hey, that's not bad. When's somebody going to do a Wawa milkshake machine Google maps hack?

They have 'em at the 11th and Arch Wawa, as well. They may have had the machine there for a while; I wouldn't have noticed it if I wasn't looking for it. They're actually $1.99 w/tax. And not great, but not bad, either. If you're desperate for a shake-like treat and happen to be near a Wawa, it's a good deal.

I think they were a very reasonable $1.99 + tax. Comparable with McDonalds, but much tastier. (In my opinion -- but then I was raised on Arby's and Whataburger's milkshakes, and these are much more similar to that...)

how much was it? if it's close to what i'd normally pay, i might prefer the old fashioned type of milkshake. good news to know in any case. thanks.

Oh, man. That's so exciting. I need to check the Wawas near me for this thing now. Field trip!

There are a few Wawas in the burbs that have those machines as well. I haven't tried it out yet, but I've been meaning to. Also, I just discovered that Rita's has a Vanilla and Strawberry custard twist. Mmmm!
