If you sold water ice on the Boardwalk in Sea Isle...

...and your Profits were down 82% from May...would you INCREASE the price of your Water Ice ? "Ms Robinson (of the New York Times) said the company would respond by raising newsstand prices for the New York Times from $1.25 to $1.50 per copy beginning in August", marking the paper’s second increase in a year. That announcement came as the New York Times reported that second-quarter profits fell 82 per cent to $21m, or 15 cents per share, compared with the same period a year ago, when it benefited from a $94m gain from the sale of television stations. I THINK I WOULD TRY LOWERING THE PRICE OF MY WATER ICE AND IMPROVING ITS QUALITY

in my day job I work with people who pretty frequently put thru price increases to our customers. nowadays they attribute it to the cost of energy, fuel, natural gas. so far, most customers have been paying. it's a game of cat n' mouse, at some point everything becomes too expensive for everyone. where will it end?
