Don’t Count On The Customers Being Able To Count

At my theater, we have a $5 deal — $5.35 after tax — that is a small popcorn and drink. Normally, when people order these, they order a lot. This is what normally happens.

Customer: “Can I have fifteen of your $5 deals?”

Me: “Yes, that’ll be $80.25.”

Customer: *Angry* “How is it that much?!”

Me: *Pause* “Math?”
