What's your favorite drink you can get with the Coke Freestyle cup??

We were on the fence about whether to get a Coca Cola freestyle cup or not, but changed our minds about getting one for our trip after watching this video. This was so convenient. We are use to drinking water all day and this saved us a lot of money. It may have been cold out, but we were still drinking a lot of water all day. Thanks to Universal and the freestyle cup, we now know what a Strawberry and Blue Raspberry Icee tastes like. Both were good, but was like the Blue Raspberry more. Thank you so much for all the information.

@chrishibbs839 3 года назад

Hey guys, love the videos! I was just there last week and purchased the Freestyle cups for my fam based on your recommendation from a previous video. It is totally worth it. And those cups are great and absolutely don't spill! We used the hell out of them the whole week were there. The only frustrating part was when the machines ran out of ice every afternoon. It happened every day. I was also frustrated that they did not work in the hotel. They have different cups that you have to buy to use the hotel machines. That doesn't make sense. Thanks again guys!!

@ThePughTwo 3 года назад

They’re not perfect, but it’s better than spending $50/day on bottles! Lol we agree about the hotels, we always make sure to fill ours up in Citywalk before we head back just for that reason. We also usually bring a few bottles of water in our suitcase just for the room. We’re so happy our videos were helpful!

@largol33t1 2 года назад

Chris, sorry but that's an unwritten rule Universal has implemented since they started the refill program. If you buy your cups from a restaurant/cafe in the HOTEL, it will not work in the parks. If you go to the parks and buy the cup there, it will NOT work in the hotels. I couldn't make up my mind but figured because I didn't want to lug an empty mug in my small messenger bag all day, I got the hotel mugs. But again, everyone's needs are different. I bet Disney is just as restrictive with their refill mugs.

@madbart214yomother7 2 года назад

@@largol33t1 Walmart is around the corner maybe a 10-15 minute walk. I drove there so i used my car and bought a case for the room and packets to flavor the water if I chose to. Sucks that they couldn't use the same cup for everywhere but if you fill up on the way out, you get to drink while your waiting for the shuttle which is like 5 mins when I went last week.

@ThePughTwo 3 года назад

We never take enough cash to pay for stuff, just for tipping! A card is really all you need!

@madbart214yomother7 2 года назад

Card or the app. I had a lanyard I brought, my ticket, hhn ticket, room key and my card in one of those zipup holder things they sell for a dollar and that worked well. Also can link your card to your room at a universal resort and you will just pay it on the departure day or put the card into the app and pay it that way. There's just so many options, love it.

@blackandgold0726 2 года назад

Also if you are staying at an onsite hotel, you can charge with your room key: it just gets charged to your credit card on file at the end of your stay. This makes it so you don't need to have any extra cards handy

@lauralu9570 3 года назад

Just found your channel and LOVE your content! Question about the fanny pack/bum bag. Are you able to wear it on rides? Does it have to be around your waist or can it be put crossbody? I heard you can wear one on most of the rides, but can't find any more detail about max dimensions, if it can have a water bottle attached, etc. Thanks! :-)

@ThePughTwo 3 года назад

As far as we know there aren’t any size limitations with the fanny packs. The one we have is pretty big and we’ve never had an issue. We’re not sure about how you wear it. On rides that it would interfere with the restraint, they might make you move it to your waist but we’re not 100% sure. Also, Universal does require it to be a 3 prong closure on the bag, which just means the closure has 3 pieces sticking out instead of 2. As far as rides, you have to take it off for Hulk, Velocicoaster, and Rip Ride. The rest of them you can take the fanny pack on. They’re sometimes weird about MIB, but we haven’t had any issues lately.

@madbart214yomother7 2 года назад

Just returned from a 4 day trip and I also can confirm as long as it gets the restraint bar on and keeps you safe along with being 3 prong, your good to go. Even if they say something to you, it'll just be to turn it to your side. Had to do that on gringotts cause the seats are awkward shape and of course hulk velocicoaster and rip ride are nothing on you, even hats go in your shirt or attached to something cause you WILL lose it. Also, freestyles will give you water even if the machine says your out for the day. Had lemonade mio bottle in my pack and just used that on day 4 and turned out great. Had a great trip and want to go back asap...👌

Planning a trip to Universal in January from El Salvador...and its quite pricey to say the least. Your videos have helped me be more excited about spending that kind of money for a week! From getting the best deals to must do things around the parks. And Universal can thank you two for me upgrading from the value resort to the Hard Rock lol. Question about the icees. I was reading that only certain locations allow you to get icees in the freestyle cups...is it only the outdoor kiosks you mentioned or are there other locations that participate as well? Thanks again for your videos!!

@ThePughTwo 2 года назад

Hey there! We are so excited that we have been a help to you! You are going to love the Hard Rock! So most of the icee machines are located outdoors! We are trying to think of any that are indoors and we can't right now, which might be why they say select locations! You are so welcome!

We were just there last week for three days and found out that you purchase the cups on the first day and get free refills. On the second and third days we did not have to purchase the refill option. The water and ice is free all day long wherever they have water option on the freestyle machines. This was a great option because I had liquid water enhancers in my backpack.

@ThePughTwo 3 года назад

Yes! Some of the machines will give you water regardless of what cup you have. This is a great option for people that just want water! Also, the water enhancers are a nice touch, too!

I bought a freestyle cup when I was there two years ago and apparently you could buy two or more days at a time? We were in the parks a total of three days and apparently on my second day whoever activated did it for two days and I had no idea! So, the first thing we did on our last day was go to get it activated and she told us we were already set for the day! I was like 😲 cool! It could have been a fluke thing but i think it’s a great idea to be able to buy multiple days. I stayed at endless summer and I thought since it was a resort I could also fill my cup up at the resort but they said you had to pay for the drinks there so that was a bummer. 😞 You guys do a really great job in all your videos! I was wondering if you guys could show us around the resorts you stay at when you go? Ik a lot of other people do those types of videos but some of them are hard to get through and don’t give as much information as you guys! Thanks so much! I watch your videos with my morning coffee 😂

@ThePughTwo 3 года назад

Awh that’s so sweet! We’ve definitely talked about doing resort videos and even considered doing live streams from the resorts in the future, so definitely stay tuned for that! It sounds like you got lucky with your cup! We’ve had that happen once or twice before, but no one has ever mentioned purchasing multiple days to us! That’d be so convenient to not have to worry about it! We’re so glad you’re enjoying our videos and we really appreciate your words of encouragement!

My mom and I have reusable cups we fill with ice from the hotel and then refill from the water fountains around the parks. I know some might be meh about tap water but we have no problem with it. Plus we have had the same issue with water in the machines. The one by the mystic fountain didn't have just plain water. They had the flavor or sparkling water and they have the fake sugar. I've only used mine on long days or days I know we are going to have multiple meals. Also, you either got lucky or I am unlucky. The lid on my freestyle cup leaks. I keep mine in a holder and as I'm walking it will splash up and out the breather hole and get everywhere!!!

@ThePughTwo 3 года назад

It sounds like you’re referring to the quick service dining plan that includes the freestyle cup? If so, those are individual so if you purchase it for four people, that would include 4 separate cups. When we go to the parks, we share a cup between the two of us just for ease. If you’re just purchasing the cups by themselves, we would recommend sharing to limit the number of cups you have to haul around with you. We hope this helps!
