Ah, I didn't enjoy that fall. I think I'll go for the premium fall next time.

Well, I certainly wouldn't pay money for that! ...Is it on-sale?

So, what's the business model here exactly? We've got the cost of rent, the upfront cost of excavating a gigantic bottomless pit the likes of which has never been seen before, the legal team to deal with lawsuits, the PR team to offset the negative press resulting from the pit, the maintenance costs of the building, replenishing the shopping carts, and of course advertising.

Actually yeah, seems doable.

The soda machine is still $1. This both supports the operation and lures the unaware.
