But they’re not robbing you? If you agree to it buy then you agree to pay for it. Irish people tend to complain about things being a rip off but it’s human nature to charge as much as the product will get.
If it’s too expensive then don’t buy it. If the punters stop buying then the price will come down or the pub will close.

Well said, Appendage. For example, the famous 51 boycott of 2008/09 forced the price of a pint of lager down from €5.20 to €5. applause

Thats a very simplistic way of looking at it Appendage and does not take into account qualitative factors influencing purchases. If for example some lovely girl had asked Farmer to meet her Peter’s Pub, what is he to do? Drink tapwater and appear miserly and frankly, soft?
mate, how much does a pie cost in Sydney?
Paid $25 for a vodka and red bull last night.
Was the sex any good?
The sad thing is it wasn’t even a sex club. Just some shit box in the meatpacking district.
Lost my credit card for good measure too.

Ouch
First of all BT that’s not a pint and secondly 18 euro for a vodka and red bull in the one of the most expensive citys in the world isn’t bad,your credit card is probably behind the bar
I saw that last night-bigger fools who pay it.

Shows where our priorities lie anyway… :rolleyes:
Coors and Carlsberg!! Delighted they got shafted.
I was charged a fiver in there for a Guinness in 2006 and promptly tried to start a row with a drunk English cunt in an attempt to get myself barred from that cunthole of a place. I’ve never darkened it’s door again I’m proud to say.
Why did you do that? Why not just not go in there again?
So that if I was ever in a group that was heading there that I had a valid excuse for getting them to go somewhere else. To be fair, I was drunk at the time.
A fiver in Kehoe’s. Greedy cunts.
FAO of Thrawneen: I was in Dalkey last weekend and witnessed two (presumably) lesbians engaging in repeated kissing and heavy petting in public in The Tramyard Cafe.
Enjoying your time off Thraw?
Were they attractive?
