Beer Prices Double at the Canoe

Postby ECO » Wed Jul 29, 2009 5:37 pm

Earth shattering news for Wahoo, I just saw that the Canoe in Negril now sells $200 Red Stripes!

Are we going to picket out front? If so I'll buy the beers.

Doubling the price of Red Stripe is no way to treat your most valued customers (ie, us)! And after the rave reviews we gave them...we practically put them on the map of "must-do" places to visit in Negril!

Well, let's think of it this way: We'll always have a great story to tell our grandkids of how we used to be able to buy $100 JA Red Stripes in Negril.

Wahoo, If feel bad that we ran our mouth about the $100 beers. Can you imagine how pissed someone will be at us if they travel there on a really tight budget and can only drink half of the beer because of our bad information? This could be a crisis!

Obama should appoint another czar to look into this blatant price gouging.

BB, you just gave me a great idea.........JAB beer discount cards. The cards will entitle the user to $100 beers and $200 mixed drinks anywhere on the island....providing a new clerk is tending the bar and he/she thinks they are real.

You've outdone yourself for devious ideas this time, Eco! To make those bogus discount cards look legit, we could have them honored and "signed" by Jamaica's Minister of Tourism, Hon. Edmund Bartlett. I'll even do the signature. A trick I learned long ago to realistically forge someone else's signature is to copy a real signature upside down. That way you don't get those telltale hesitation pauses in the handwriting.
