Counterpoint: a lot of people on ski slopes make enough money to legitimately not even concern themselves with prices

I came here to say there was probably a context clue or three, namely the price.

I don't know this fella, but he is either so out of touch with how much things cost that he doesn't pay even the slightest attention, or (gasp) he is making up a story for the Internet.

Looks to be about 90 beers and they're all tall boys. Don't know where you're from, but at the cheapest -we're talking dog piss beer or malt liquor- around here, that'd be at least $150. I imagine the markup at a ski lodge would make it at least double that. Your point still stands. OP gotta be full of shit.

I mean, going skiing costs an arm and a leg to begin with. $10 for a large beer at the mountain doesn't sound outrageous to me.

1. I don't know where you are that a sled full of beers looks like $50. I don't think I could even get that many Coors banquets for $50.
2. Beers at a brewery or stadium can easily be $10-20 each. I wouldn't be surprised to find similar prices at a ski lodge.

“It's one banana, Michael, how much could it cost? 10 dollars?”

I mean you’re probably right but at least for where I live, your numbers are WAY off. Looks like this is four 24 packs, which where I live goes for around $60 on the cheap end. So that’s $240 at a minimum. Assuming they do a bulk discount, maybe an even $200 if it’s cheap beer. On the other extreme, basically any restaurant here charges $9-10 for standard domestic beer, and obviously more for imported or premium. So that’s looking at close to $1,000 for all that. A bundle discount might bring it down to $900 or $850 or something. And then I guess you could go even further and talk about higher end beers which are oftentimes $20 here, or more probably too. So double the previous numbers.

All that’s to say, even on the low end of $200, that’s still nuts for 5 beers. That would be $40 per beer, which even high end at a specialty restaurant I wouldn’t expect to see that high. Hell, even at a stadium, I think I’ve only seen as high as $25-30 for a single high end beer. I just checked online actually and I could get a 5L keg of Heineken at my local liquor store for $42. And for high end stuff, the most expensive individual beer I could get right now is $34, and that’s for 750ml which is larger than what’s shown in the picture.
