The $13.50 7Up

Yep. You read that right. $13.50 for 7Up. I was ripped off. Here’s how it happened:

The wife and I enjoyed a few days alone in Las Vegas las week. We stayed at the Aria, the newest resort/casino. Wanting to impress my wife with a fancy dinner, I made reservations at Jean-Georges Steakhouse. It did not disappoint. I had a killer filet mignon and my wife enjoyed perfect soup and salad (she’s not much of a meat eater). Since I don’t drink, I ordered a 7Up. It came in a small glass that was 3/4 full of ice. It still tasted good, and I quickly downed it. The server offered me another and I finished that during my meal. I had one final glass of 7Up after the I finished my steak. In total, I had 3 glasses of 7Up (and my wife had one).

Then the bill came. Four glasses of 7Up at $4.50 each. I drank $13.50 of 7Up. Apparently, free refills on soda is only for high end establishments like McDonalds, Subway, and Applebees.

At least the steak was worth the $38 price tag.
