Suddenly the $7 Starbucks sandwich isn't sounding like such a bad deal.<BR/><BR/>As a point of reference, I can get a bagel toasted and with plain cream cheese for about $1.30. And that's downtown where I'm sure costs are higher than in West Seattle, no matter how awesomely Yankee they are. Granted, it's Cinnamon Raisin rather than Asiago, but that's mainly because I'm not exactly sure what "Asiago" means, and I'm a bit worried that the "iago" part of the name means that the bagel will infuse me with a jealous rage that makes me kill my wife.Scott Chickenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10665922507566574568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5191254.post-57371143601697394862007-09-13T11:09:00.000-07:002007-09-13T11:09:00.000-07:00Bagel store's 95 cents: raw ingredients about 10 c...Bagel store's 95 cents: raw ingredients about 10 cents. Labor is the rest of the cost. If they throw a stale bagel away, they lose the raw cost plus a little labor, but not much across the entire task of making and selling it.<BR/><BR/>Bagel store sells the bagel to Indy Hipster Scumbag Cafe That You Inexplicably Continue to Frequent for 70 or 80 cents. Mark up is to $2.15 because they will not sell all bagels in a given day. Marking up to $2.15 ensures bagel will not sell in given day.<BR/><BR/>Rinse, relax, repeat.Glenn Fleishmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08216411952203953484noreply@blogger.com
