Paying for the service is fine.

But I would prefer to see the amount I’m expected to pay before I choose to purchase that product or service.

I know I can bust out the calculator, but that feels pretty annoying.

Probably in a similar category as lutefisk in Norway. I like it, but I realize it’s an acquired taste.

True. I remember visiting El Paso a decade ago.

There was a starbucks in viewing distance from the hotel but the only way to get there was by car. The fact that taking a short walk to get my morning coffee was not possible seemed absurd.

And this kept happening. Walking anywhere was just not a thing there.
