Speaker 1 (00:01):
What do you think should be free?
Speaker 2 (00:03):
That is not I mean, and I'm sure that's a
that's a loaded question. So eight five five five one
three five What are this is a video that Kiki
sent me this morning from TikTok from a creator the
Morgan Gordon. What are things that should be included in
the price. So it's not even it should be free,
(00:23):
it's that if I buy something, I'm not paying extra
for this, like.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
Should be included in the price. I'll go first. Number one.
Speaker 4 (00:29):
If I buy a ticket to a concert, I should
automatically get merged. I should have a little voucher that
gets me a free sher That's.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Not happening, okay, because.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
I mean a little trinket or something the key chain.
Speaker 5 (00:40):
Like I paid three hundred dollars to come see you,
bottle owner twenty five dollars for parking.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
Now that's one thing that should be included. Parking.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Oh yeah, that's true. I agree, you got me, ay no,
but you've got everybody. I mean, it's it would be nice,
but you know, the parking people that's a different usually
different company than the arena people. So these are all
people with their hand in this. They're all making money
in different ways.
Speaker 5 (01:02):
Well, you need to put the money all in one
pot and include it in my ticket price, and that's it.
I mean, I shouldn't have to pay for the concert ticket.
Paid ticket mats are seventy five dollars. On top of that,
sixty dollars to part. Can't get a popcorn or a
shrink it when I get to the BIGU, I.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
Need like a shrink You want a shrinket? Damn.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Yes, well they were doing that for a while, weren't they,
Where they would like package stuff to make it seem
like it wasn't as bad, Like, all right, well it's
three hundred and fifty bucks for a ticket, but you
also get you know, a shirt and a hot dog
when you get there or something, and you still paid weight.
You paid for it, right, but you felt like you
were getting a value, right, Make me feel it okay?
Speaker 1 (01:39):
All right?
Speaker 4 (01:40):
Because I literally just paid to you give me the shit.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
I just feel like, even if it's not even if
you're not paying for it, you're paying. If you don't
think you're paying for what you're paying for it, you know,
So it's okay, the contains tickets three hundred bucks. So
then the next route it will be four hundred bucks,
but they'll give you something. But you didn't necessarily need it,
because you know I would have paid the three hundred
bucks and then I bought this.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
You you know what I mean. So I don't. I don't
think anything's gonna be free.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
It works, I'm telling you, it's a mind treak.
Speaker 5 (02:06):
Just like Southwest Airlines used to give us two free bags.
Everybody ran at that, like, oh my god, two freebacks.
Now you're probably paying for the bags included in the price,
but it made me want to buy.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
There, give me something. Maybe you think it's free. They're
so greedy.
Speaker 4 (02:19):
Number two sauce. I should never have to pay fifty
since extra for a sauce. I don't care if you
make your own sauce with this, and I don't care
if it's just the regular catchup packet from the store.
I shouldn't have to pay for it. Just give me
the sauce. I don't need to pay extra for that.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
I agree with this, and so does Krista Christa. Dipping
sauces should be included with the meal at no extra charge.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
I agree.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
I mean, okay, so make it twenty five cents more.
I guess sneak it in there if you have to,
But you're right, I don't want it. Okay, So I
got chicken fingers. What sauce do you want? I want
ranch extra fifty? Said no, what do you mean right?
I was supposed to I supposed to raw dog these things?
Of course it was, Yes, CHRISA, it's brilliant. When's the
(03:04):
last time you can think of that? You were charged
extra for sauce? And did you throw it back at
the their face face yesterday?
Speaker 1 (03:11):
Where'd you try and go?
Speaker 2 (03:14):
So?
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Actually I went to Hersarti's pizzauce.
Speaker 6 (03:16):
Okay, you went to a pizza place, yes, And I
ordered a large pizza and then I ordered, you know,
the chicken tuners. And as I'm ordering them, I want
that buffalo, I want that.
Speaker 4 (03:28):
I want that Sarvi permesan.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
It was fifty cents extra each.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
I think the problem is is you've got the people
who took like eighty seven sauces for their meal and
threw most of them away.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
It's kind of like do you ever notice it? Subway?
I think they still do this.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
I haven't eat a subway in a long time, but
they would give you two napkins. That's they give you
two napkins as part of the deal, and there aren't
napkins in the store. They're not just little dispensers everywhere,
because if you ever think about the last time you
went to get napkins, you probably took four times more
napkins than you needed. You just keep taking them out
of the thing, the little dispenser, right, and then you
threw most of them away. So Subway says, no, we'll
(04:06):
tell you how many napkins you can have, and if
you want more, I guess you can probably go up
there and ask them for it. But I bet you
they saved millions of dollars a year across all their
restaurants by rationing the napkins because people take this crap
and they wasted. So I guess we have those people
to thank Chris for this sauce to the sauce Shenanigans.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
And you know what's the worst part is I paid
for it and I didn't get in. Oh now that's criminal, Yes,
it is.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
It.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
We got a problem christ to thank you. Have a
good day. Well, she just used down. She hung up.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
Hey Cheryl, hey ho hey, good morning. Credit card fees
at restaurants, wait tell me about this.
Speaker 6 (04:46):
Okay, it's started in COVID. Everybody was penny pension and
they're putting on their credit card fee whatever. Well guess what.
It's six years later and they're still doing it. And
I will not go to a restaurant if you're gonna
not just put it in your feet.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
Interest the taco. Yeah, I'm sure if I've ever seen
it that blatant.
Speaker 6 (05:08):
Oh oh yeah, look at the receipts.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
Oh it's on there.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (05:11):
They don't tell you like I'll if you use your card,
we're gonna put an extra three percent or whatever.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
The cash price is this, price of the card price
is this.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
But the other problem is a lot of places won't
take cash, Like a lot of places don't know what
to do with your cash. So like you can't be
make up your mind, like what is there we're using cash?
Were not using cash because there are some places where
you go with your cash and they're like huh, like
I don't know what we're gonna do with that. We
can't give you change. We don't have any change exactly.
Speaker 6 (05:35):
So it's like there was a local little taco place
that we frequented probably twice a week, kind of upscale.
You're paying four or five dollars a taco, and so
we were regulars and they still are doing it till
this day and we have not gone back. We have
they're like, oh, well, we'll remove it, and it's like,
so we don't, we don't freak, We don't go there anymore.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
But stop it.
Speaker 6 (05:57):
Yeah, three cents my taco somewhere. You know what I'm
saying right there to irk.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
Me, I thank you, Cheryl, have a great day. Thanks
for listening too. I do think a credit card fee
is kind of the cost of doing business. Another thing,
and this is unrelated, but just because I've been traveling
lot lately. If you, if you accept tips, if you're
someone who accepts tips, so you're I don't know, you're
a valet guy or whatever you need. If you don't
have an easy way for someone to tip you digitally,
(06:24):
you need to have change. You You are responsible for
your own change. Don't look at me crazy when I
should be giving you a five dollars tip would be generous,
and I hand you at twenty and you look at
me like I don't know what to do with this,
and then I'm the jackass walking away without having the
money to tip you, like I'm not going to give you.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
I don't.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
I can't just hand out twenties. Okay, I'm not made.
I'm on the radio, guys, Okay. Like it's if I run,
you know, maybe cable or something would be different. I
don't know, Netflix be way different. But like if you
if you know what an appropriate tip is, and you
gotta have change. And this has nothing to do with
the topic, but it bothers me because it's like, I
want to tip you, but it's hard. It's actually if
(07:05):
you go to an ATM, usually it spits out twenties, right,
and so like it's kind of on you as the
person taking the tip, to be able to accommodate the
tip and give me some money back. And if you can't,
then you can't get mad about you gotta be like, oh,
you know, you know what I mean absolutely like having
a few dollars with you, you know, on hand, to.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
Be able to just shift right have exactly yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
I think that's fair, don't you think?
Speaker 3 (07:27):
Absolutely?
Speaker 1 (07:28):
Yeah? Or what else is she mad about it?
Speaker 4 (07:30):
In the price of my ten dollar meal? Number three
makeup brushes. If I'm buying a blush, I should get
a brush. If I'm buying a foundation, I should get
a brush. Whatever product I'm buying, you should come.
Speaker 3 (07:38):
With an applicator.
Speaker 4 (07:39):
Median range of makeup now is thirty to forty dollars.
You can spare a little one dollar brush because it's
the only gonna cost them, like one dollar.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Okay, so they may they may do that, but it's
gonna be cheap. It's not gonna be nice brush. You're
gonna wind up want to buy a better one.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Aren't you?
Speaker 5 (07:53):
I feel that way, But I know people love free
stuff and it changes the game for a lot of people.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
I think, yeah, credit card fees has the cost of
doing business.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
Air for your tires that.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
Is insane that we just pay that, We just we
just let them charge us.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
For that air for the tire.
Speaker 3 (08:08):
That is insane.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
I know some places will have free air, like the
gas station, because they want you to go to that
gas station. I mean, how much does that really cost
you to be able to you know what I mean?
Like if I if I had a gas station and
I give if I give you free air and you're
already there, you might buy something else, right, So I
guess charging you a dollar for that doesn't I mean,
how much is that really really cost to upkeep that
little air compressor thing.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
Moving into a building?
Speaker 4 (08:32):
I should not have to pay an elevator fee to
use an elevator that's going to be there.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
Regardless, you have to pay a fee.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
Uh huh.
Speaker 4 (08:39):
And then sometimes you have to pay well, you always
have to pay for the application just to see if
you can get the apartment.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
Oh no, that okay? Now, yes, I pryet about that.
Speaker 5 (08:48):
Why are we paying application fees for you to determine
if you want to take my money? Like girl, no,
I mean they are charging to try on wedding dresses
right now, and I'm yes, wait really, oh yeah, it's
fifty dollars or more to book an appointment at most places.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
What I have to pay you to try on the
dress that I might buy for an exorbitant amount of money?
Speaker 3 (09:08):
Yep?
Speaker 1 (09:09):
Really? Oh yeah.
Speaker 5 (09:10):
And it's like I understand because women and influencers are
out here booking appointments, just going to shoe content, dreaming
of a wedding that's never happening whatever, and you're wasting
people's time. And I understand it's an industry that may
not Actually no, I don't understand you know I am
making excuses for them. No, actually, never mind, that was real.
Speaker 3 (09:34):
That was real. The other thing was hotel parking.
Speaker 5 (09:38):
If I booked a room at this hotel, where do
you want me to put my car?
Speaker 1 (09:42):
Took? Like, what are we doing at apartments too? Oh yeah, girl,
give me the spot. Yeah. I don't like that.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
I don't like the hotel thing, where like I'm going
to go in and I'm going to spend money at
this hotel, or I'm going to go in and spend
moneyt to bar the hotel or whatever. You and I
got to pay you to park there, Like, you need
to provide parking. You got to have a place for
me to put my car so I can carry my
wallet in there and spend some money with you.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
I fired up about it.
Speaker 3 (10:11):
Parking spaces.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
Yeah, I don't like that either, unless it's like a major, huge,
crazy big city, and then I guess it's sort of
you have to plan ahead for that. But yeah, yeah, okay, good,
I'm glad we came to a consensus on this. We
need napkins, we need dipping sauces, we need parking spaces
for our cars.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
Charging stop charging for air wedding dress.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
I gotta know, I would love to see the economics
on that, Like how many people are not going to
your store because you charge for the appointment versus the
number of dresses that you could have sold? Like it,
does it really work out better such that you charged Okay,
it's fifty bucks for me to try and a dress
and then I'm not going to go there because I'm
not gonna phitt at fifty bucks. How many sales are
(10:56):
you missing out on with the profit margin being larger
than fifty bucks.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
It's gotta be a lot, a lot like this is
like why are people why are.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Business is inconvenienced by doing their own business? I don't
I don't understand. So this is why you have a
store
