Starbucks prices at Vegas airport is at least 20% higher on everything

[JEDI]

Tall coffee = $2.65, $1.65 on the Strip
Las Vegas coffee cup = $12, $10 on the Strip

fortunately, water is still free. (and Starbucks usually outfits their stores w/a triple water filtration system which, supposely, makes their coffee taste better).

ok, i can understand the drinks being slightly higher.
But on the merchandise as well?!

Should have seen what they cost in Tokyo.

Yeah, I was there at McCarran in September.

It's worse in other international airports. I'm used to NYC pricing.

 

[FoBoT]

everything at all airports costs more

right?

 

[HamburgerBoy]

lol. Airports are always much more expensive. Added cost of transporting materials into the safe zone of the airport + monopoly status = $$$.

Same reason why food/drinks are expensive at theme parks/fairs/movie theaters/etc.

That's because rent at the airport is helluva lot more expensive.
