We eat lunch out every day, and I order either a small caesar side salad, or a cup of soup at our favorite restaurant.
About two weeks ago the cup of soup went up from $4.75 to $5.50!!! AAAGH. At least they didn't use any sneaky wording.
Today I ordered the soup at lunch. Previously, with tax and tip I paid $7 for it, and this time it was $8.
But gosh, $8 for a lunch I love? It's so good - - lots of seafood (fresh crawfish in season, otherwise crab), and corn in a perfectly spiced, thick chowder... yum. I decided it was well worth $8 all along. Instead of being upset by the price now, I just figure I was getting a bargain before.
