Aunt Polly's to reopen for limited time!

20 ounce bottles of Coca-Cola are now $4.19!!!

That's exactly why I've stopped going to Disney. You all can have the place.

A bit OT but this is something that really grinds my gears about Disney as well. I understand we are a captive audience but the price gouging on things like a bottle of Coke seems beyond excessive to me. It’s a shame and sours me at times

if you a buy a bottle of coke from a cart outside it's 4.50, water is 3.50

Part of that is. Make the circle smaller and move it to the HM end of the structure

Then maybe you're not the demographic that they're catering to these days. Target audiences are usually groups of consumers with large amounts of disposable income.

A 20oz soda at my local professional Baseball stadium is $5.25. Disney is cheap.

Queue the people who will now say that’s somehow different since you’re not at the stadium for multiple days.

That's OUTRAGEOUS.

At Six Flags with their heavily discounted gate and giveaway season passes I expect them to gouge you. At Disney however you're paying a high gate price for admission. I don't mind paying more for the convenience, but I have a MAJOR PROBLEM with being ripped off!

Until recently I've for the most part thought that food & beverage and concession prices were generally fair. That's not the case anymore! That's a blatant rip off.

At this point...I'd rather patronize Six Flags, despite the inferior park experience.

That's exactly why my television is my stadium. I give sports stadiums the middle finger and on the rare occasion I attend I generally buy nothing while inside!

While I think WDW prices across the board have become largely obnoxious (like a good chunk of their target audience) and I've stopped going, I really don't think 4 bucks is that bad for a Coke in that kind of environment. Once they get over 5 (probably by next year at this rate), then we can talk.

But yeah, good to see Aunt Polly's back open, for however long it lasts.

Thank you and have a nice time at Six Flags. This board is not about Six Flags.

Keep in mind the logistics of operating a restaurant on an island are a certified PITA.

Any pics of it open?

Well it's true.

I'm sure you had a great week's vacation at the stadium. It's certainly on my bucket list.

 

[disney4life2008]

People will pay $7 or more for a cupcake. I doubt spending $5 on a pop is nothing.

Yes obviously it’s true that most people don’t spend multiple days at a stadium. But length of visit really is irrelevant when referencing the price of a good that is the same product in either situation. You can’t justify one and and not the other. In both cases you are a captive audience purchasing the same product. In fact the stadium is generally worse because at least in Disney’s case you have the option of bringing in your own beverages.

I don’t normally comment on things like this, but I don’t see how that’s an invalid argument. Doesn’t mean I like paying that much, but it’s in line with industry pricing and amusement park pricing in general.
