It's not price gouging when that's the price everyday of the year.

Their signage is what's gotten the City of Orlando on their case.

This also isn't law review, I'm using the term in its common form not in a legal sense.

Ha! So true. Everyone here knows about it, so we just avoid. Also, a friend owns the Chick-fil-a there on 436 and Lee Vista, so be sure to drive down just a little further for a snack. How's that for a shameless plug? ;p

My office is down Lee Vista about 1/4 mile from there.

Wow! Small world! We are never over on that side of town, since we live in far East Orlando. But if you ever go to CFA, say hi for me

This topic comes up on the Orlando TA forum as well, pretty often. Folks, this ain't rocket science. Prices are VERY often higher near airports or in very high tourist traffic areas in cities across the country. It's not just here in Orlando.

You drive about a mile or two further and the prices are much better. I than really top off the car before I go to the airport.
