You aren't getting your money back on endless salad and breadsticks.

That salad bowl cost them 2, maybe 3 dollars of ingredients and those breadsticks are even cheaper. Unless you are eating 10 bowls of salad or 10 pounds of breadsticks, olive garden is winning here.

Companies don't offer "unlimited" stuff if they don't know how to extract more money from you than you can consume.

This is exactly how the power users do it at olive garden. People even smuggle in tupperware. You only need to beat the average to be in the money, which isn't hard to do if you go hog wild.
