You weren't alone in your thinking. My reaction was to laugh when I seen it though. Than I went and got another drink.

...but have a common sense.
Let's see - many people pay more money to achieve something they could have gotten cheaper if they would have known what's going on?
Hm, let's compare this:
You go on a vacation, Spain, England, Mexico, China, France...and sit there having a nice glass, or even a bottle of decent wine for a certain price. I don't go cheap on vacations. Now the time comes to pay, you take out your wallet, pay and of course we tip good - just to notice that the next table pays a fairly smaller amount for the same bottle! They even smile in your face.
What do we do?
A) We walk away, happy of being screwed, and even saying "damn, we will come back for more."
B) We complain, and ask at least to be fairly treated, means to pay the same price than the others for the same product.
C) We ask very loud for a full refund for this mistreatment.
One more?
We want to upgrade our car, stereo, speakers, screens or something crazy? A little pool in the limo?
After all is done, of course with 3 times complaining about the job, to our happiness, we pay! While we pay, as Murphy's Law, somebody else pay's far less for the same modification!
Now, I won't repeat choices A, B, or C - it's obvious.
So, is it really to much to ask for something? A partial refund, extra items, start the next battle with the end points?

I hope my German English is understandable.
D) Run over and punch that other couple in the face and wipe the smirk off their dumb face. Then find the owner of the restaurant and punch him in the ****.
I'd love to start with our excess IP for next war as I'm sure the other #4-11 teams would as well. We basically spent enough for two Top 10 finishes anyway.
bad examples.
In a real restaurant you will always pay the same prize for a bottle cause that's an official prize written down in a wine list. Or you eat in a street market in the middle of nowhere? :p
The car selling companies, that how it works. Not two people will pay the same prize for the same car with same options.
That's all about being a persuasive buyer. A least that's how it works in Belgium, Luxembourg, France. If you don't ask for anything, you will pay the full prize but if you could be a persuasive, more options for free or a good discount is always possible.
Once a transaction is done, you can only blame yourself :D
