9 dollar ginger ale

This evening I went to The Whoopi Monologues. My friend was in line for the bar, he said he was getting a ginger ale, I said don’t do it, they’ll charge you $10, as a joke. The bartender said 9 dollars please. This is madness. This is criminal, it’s a scandal and an outrage. I knew it’s crazy overpriced, but my goodness they have taken it to a new level. I knew the alcoholic drinks are expensive but even a damn ginger ale is now almost $10 in the basement of a non profit theater company. Whoever’s paying for this, you’re a fool and a part of the problem.

While I agree with you about the price being nuts, it is not surprising anymore. The solution is don't buy one because the cost is not going to get cheaper. In addition, the profit margin on the ginger ale is huge.

In other news, gas is too expensive.

Yes, it is but also depends on where you live. I got gas the other day for $3.34 a gallon which included my 10-cent discount for using my Exxon card.

We complain when theaters get greedy with ticket prices - we're allowed to complain about drink prices too.

It's the messenger.. Who has surely known this.
