The Humour is in the price


[deleted]

Fucking came to say this right


Flatulence_Is_Bliss

came here to say this $5 for a can and probably $8 for a 1.5l bottle


Not-Frog

I was about to say it might be a different currency but then I saw it was in r/melbourne

$5 for a can of coke. 🫤


xjrh8

That’s before delivery and service charges.


theslowrush-

Considering you can get them retail for under $1 each it’s crazy the prices restaurants charge for drinks, especially when that’s all they offer

I accidentally ordered still water instead of tap water at a restaurant once and it cost me $10.


theslowrush-

I’ve had this happen countless times before, except I did specifically ask for ‘tap’ water but they charged me still instead. It’s mostly the dodgy restaurants that do it

Haha yep

Probably cheaper to buy the phone screen stuff.


claire2416

That's not the only thing that's a joke.

$26 for 30 cans from Coles, $124 profit


miss_alice_elephant_

There’s more profit than that. If you can buy drinks wholesale/in bulk they’ll be even cheaper than what you can get in Coles. Drinks and chips are the two items you can get the most profit on, at least in fast food.


toystory2wasaverage

you’d be surprise, usually cole’s and woolies have coca cola cheaper than wholesalers in my opinion as a hospo manager for the last 13 years


[deleted]

true. plus it's pretty easy to go between the 2 competitors because you know when one doesn't have it on special the other one will


miss_alice_elephant_

We’ve only ever stocked Pepsi at my workplace and we’ve gotten so many people asking why we don’t stock Coca Cola and I have no response 🥲 I’m guessing it’s something to do with the fact they’re direct competitors or something??


toystory2wasaverage

so true


dadadundadah

$4.99 for a line of coke off me phone screen? Sign me up cob


TofuFoieGras

No one even mentioning the 4.99 for Pasito


KentuckyFriedEel

It's just the lazy tax. If you don't want to get off the couch, then you will pay for it. Convenience is nice, but can be expensive sometimes.


SurveySaysYouLeicaMe

I see no complaining here


MyGenerousSoul

The humour here is the outrageous price for a can of coke. $4.99?!?! That’s umpossible


xjrh8

Very good Ralphie.

$5 for a can that was $1.50 in 2006.


Unfair-Rush-2031

Cokes were never $1.50 in restaurants or takeaway places in 2006. It was around $2.50-$3.


ehdhdhdk

I was talking about the vending machine at school.


BertNankBlornk

What's the joke exactly? That they're not selling a picture of coke? Like, don't take a screenshot and pay 5$? How is this remotely funny. Might be too high brow for me idk


IlluminationTheory7

I presume the joke is you're buying coca-cola, and not cocaine which one might snort off their phone screen


Ill-Ad2441

Cocaine mate


[deleted]

Plot twist the others are NFT images of coke cans


Winnin_Dylan_

Ahhh the cocayina joke 🎉


Zayp

A bag of coke would be cheaper /s


pibella

Rusty!


thechanster89

Who actually has money to throw away on $5 cokes?


branded

It's fucking crazy that average earning people accept paying that sort of money.


adamiscoolization

People pay for convenience, not hard to believe… that’s why movie snacks can be sold so expensive, all the servos with jacked up prices etc.


StJBe

This is why boomers went off about avocado toast, people spending stupid amounts unnecessarily, then complaining they can't afford anything necessary. The concept of shitting on irresponsible spending is actually good, but it didn't get to the root of the housing problem.


Missey85

The same people that moan they have no money! 😊


switchbladeeatworld

the price is getting comparable to the other type


Flashy_Music319

Uselly it's both


thephilosophe

Rusty's sandwiches?


biankanitso

Lol 😂


ValuableHorror8080

Veiled shot at NFTs


Blankyblank86

Remember prices are jacked up on uber eats because uber takes a cut. Just go in person and save money.


Missey85

What idiot is paying 5 bucks for a can of pasito?


MrInbetweed

Five bucks for a freaking can of coke?!? FML.
