What?
The nachos that you had the other night at Boo's were indeed half-price. If there was some confusion in the pricing or my server was unable to explain, then we would be happy to look after you the next time. I apologise for your being charged $1.50 too much on already discounted item. However, how am I going to right the wrong when your posting does not include a name???
As for the comment "watch your reciept at Boo's". That comes close to suggesting that we are in this business to rip people off.
Nothing could be further from the truth. Please let us know the next time you are in and perhaps we can make it up.
Unfortunate response
The nachos were not half price, otherwise there would not have been a problem. I assume you are an owner or manager but your post was also nameless. Both the servers working agreed with me that the "complicated" pricing was kind of underhanded but said they were forced to uphold the policy. Half price is simple: take the price in the menu and divide by 2. If it needs explanation then something is wrong. All this nonsense about nachos being a separate charge from the beef or veg is a lot of bs. They are not separated like that on your menu. And the receipt contained vague entries that were numbered or didn't mean anything which is why I said watch your receipt. Like everyone else I simply want honest, transparent pricing without hidden charges or semantic games. I don't want you to "make it up" to me, I would like you to change your pricing policies so that what you advertise is truly what the customer receives.
ps
I should also mention I have been to Boo's many many times and enjoy going there. I was quite surprised and disappointed by this.
Watch your receipt at Boo's
I was at Boo's the other night and had the, supposedly, half price special. Turns out it wasn't half price at all but some "creative" pricing that meant the nachos were one price and the beef or vegetables were another price and therefore an additional charge... huh? Pretty dirty stuff. Not a way to treat the customers who have been supported them for so long. Boo hiss to Boo's.
