40 pesos for a bottle of C2

Bored at the UST College of Engineering Graduation
I was at my cousin’s graduation yesterday afternoon at the PICC. Before I continue, I’d like to say congratulations to my cousin and his fellow UST College of Engineering batchmates.

It was a long ceremony and I found myself going outside the plenary hall every now and then because of the extremely cold air-conditioning. I decided to refresh myself with a drink after my 3rd or 4th walk out with something from the caterer that was stationed at the corridor.

I think the caterer was Via Maria’s and it was a big rip off. I asked for a bottle of C2 and they complied by giving me one of those smaller bottles of C2. What makes it bas is they charge 40 php for a small bottle of C2! 40 pesos!!! That’s like 1 dollar for an extremely small bottle of C2 Iced green tea!
