KFC Taxes on drive thru promotion Columbus Ohio
5/8/2013
This evening, I was a patron at KFC in Linden, on Cleveland Ave, Columbus, OH. I drove thru the drive thru and used a coupon for a 2 piece boneless box with a side, biscuit and drink for $4.99 as a buy one, get one free promotion.
This prompted me to attend this restaurant in a flyer I received at home. Upon getting to the pickup window, I was told the price was $5.22. How and why was I charged an extra amount than advertised, when I didn't "dine in" to get the tax added?
I think the Management or workers are manipulating the cash drawers to charge tax on the receipt when no tax is collected on April 15th of each year. I did pay the extra $.23 cents, but was reluctant and hungry.
I believe many patrons are paying more than is required by law, as these taxes aren't collected when I frequently enjoy a Wendy's on my lunch break.
Thank you for your interest in fraud.
Sincerenly,
