When I was paying for my large shake today ($10+), I asked the girl for one of their loyalty cards and if she'd stamp it for my purchase. She told me they didn't have any cards because they were stopping doing it. (It was a small business size card with 10 rectangle boxes and you got a stamp in each box for every scoop of ice cream you bought and three stamps for a large shake. Once your card was filled with 10 stamps, you got a one scoop cone for free.) I think that's the greediness of the owner that's halting their loyalty rewards program. The girl even told me the Dave's in Aiea is still doing it. So I've decided I'm not going to patronize Dave's Waipio anymore. Their loyalty program and their friendly and courteous workers is what kept me a customer. You can get a real shake at Jack in the Box for around $6 for a large and for around $7 at Baskin Robbins. So why would I continue to pay close to $11 + tip at Dave's when they don't give a rip about me. I SUGGEST A BOYCOTT OF DAVE'S WAIPIO UNTIL THEY START SHOWING THEY CARE A LITTLE ABOUT THE PEOPLE THAT WERE SUPPORTING THEIR BUSINESS. I'D SUGGEST DOING THE SAME FOR THEIR TEA BUSINESS NEXT DOOR TOO. IF THEY WANT TO STOP SHOWING APPRECIATION FOR US THEN WE NEED TO STOP SHOWING APPRECIATION FOR DAVE'S WAIPIO AND THEIR TEAPRESSO BUSINESSES. ALOHA DAVE'S WAIPIO!!! YOU'VE LOST THIS ONE LOYAL CUSTOMER BECAUSE OF YOUR HIGH PRICE GREED FOR SURE. As for their shave ice.. Mountain Magic Shave Ice in Waikele is bigger, better and has way more flavors to choose...
