That's pretty high rent, OP. $1250pw in Haymarket would mean that's a pretty exceptional 2/2/1. High floor? Decent view? Newish building? I…

Sounds like someone needs a kombucha.

I'm sure you're right. Weakens my argument, but I still think when you look at that shelf, and see "Any 2 for $x", the average person grabs…

Sorry - I don't smoke, I should have said 'the front desk'. That didn't come to mind last night - said that so you'd all know what I was on…

This criticism is fair enough, reading my post back. In my defense, I never mentioned that the price had been initially fixed at the front…

I haven't, but that's a great suggestion - thanks! I'll definitely look into that :-)
