Did you mean to quote my post? Cause your response has nothing to do with my post?

Seriously though, learning at 27 years old that things may be more expensive due to convenience means you are a failure at life, there is no arguing this fact. Pop being $2.49 at the liquor store is the same as chips being $7 a bag at the gas station. I

If the OP thought this was news enough for a thread then I stand by my "if you're 27 and just figuring this out, you're a failure" comment.

Thank god for this thread, I now won't buy pop at the liquor store. Anyone notice how expensive the ice is there? It must be better quality ice.

Sorry, no. I was saying the OP was silly. I have no idea why I quoted your post.

Because you are old and do not have a complete grasp of the interwebz.

Well, it's only free if you don't get it from the Superstore liquor store.

The real question is why did you need 4 bottles? I seriously doubt you drank enough rye to require that much ginger ale, unless you're making b*tch drinks.

Then you deserve the price gouge.
