I'd have to agree with Alun. Here in Belgium we get soy milk pretty easily but the thing is people aren't used to putting soy milk in there coffee (At least not down here). Spillage is thereby pretty big and we just have to ask some money in order to get the bottle of milk paid in the first place

We've never had any compunction about charging extra for soy. It's almost twice as expensive as milk. In the past four years, I've only heard one person grumble about it.

Same here... it is a service out of the norm (soy as opposed to whole milk) and costs a good deal more for us to provide that service, so we charge 60 cents. Never had any complaints. As for rice milk... I think it turns a drink into something similar to dirty laundry water... but I haven't honestly taken the time to experiment across the board with the rice milk... I feel another discussion topic comin' on.

Does it cost YOU extra? Then charge extra. If not, then pass the savings on.
