Went to the buffet at Treasure Island today with a friend. I thought the buy-one-get-one coupon I had would make the buffet relatively cheap. Instead, it made it reasonable.
$16.99 per person?!?!?! I'd expect it to be half that price. Then again perhaps I've simply become accustomed to the buffets I typically hit for lunch. For lunch, if the price gets too close to $10, we don't go back.
The Blenders, an Acappella group, are going to be in town in December for a holiday show. Sounds like a great time, if I can find someone to come along! Then I look at the ticket prices... - $32.50?!?! An acappella group can pull in $32.50 per seat for a show?! Tickets for Rock Band Live started at $35, and that's for FOUR AWESOME bands! (well I can vouch for 3 of them, but Amber assures me The Cab is great too)
Nice to see that gas jumped 20 cents too, in the name of Hurricane Ike. It's funny... gas prices didn't fall so quickly because of the impending hurricanes. So now that one's actually hitting, let's raise prices too. Comparing the price of a barrel of oil to the price of gas... it's way out of whack. Could someone please whack it back into whack? Let's get gas prices back into the $2 range! C'mon! It's realistic!
Then again, look at Europe. $2.75/liter (or litre, depending on your country), which is way freakin expensive (how does $8/gallon sound?!)
I want a Prius. I can only imagine how awesome the gas mileage would be for me living here in the city :) In the country, the Prius wouldn't get gas mileage worth a hoot, cuz it's all cruising... but in the city, where I use the brakes all the freakin time during my commute... it would be worth it :)
