[BC] Absurd markups!

$3.75 will get you a cup of coffee at Starbucks.



I don't even like paying 5X Willie. I frequently stop at Burger King on the
way to work in the morning, and get a croissanwich. I used to get a bottle
of milk as well. Then I realized I was paying $1.00+ for about a cup of
milk. So I bought a 16oz bottle of milk at the grocery store, and saved the
bottle. I refill it each morning before I go to work. I haven't worked out
how much it costs me to fill that bottle from my gallon jug, which is about
$3.75, but it's a whole lot less than $1.00, and I get more milk to drink
with my sandwich. Since BK buys in bulk, I'm sure that small bottle of milk
costs them about a quarter or maybe even less.
