Yum vs. Ick

Here I sit in what I've taken to calling The House of Changing Prices.
You may recall a previous post about this bagel shop that sells milk
for market price. Well the new thrill in this capitalist funhouse is
the random pricing. Three days in a row I ordered the same thing: a
toasted bagel with cream cheese. The price went from $2.05 to $1.95 to
$2.05. I assumed the first change was due to the alignment of the
stars or coffee beans or somesuch. When the price increased again, I
decided to question it.

The asst. manager's comment to me: we depend on you guys to tell us
about these differences.

I have no idea how this place stays in business.

And should "lemony" be a descriptive term in a coffee?!?
