Gimme Little Drink From Your Pleasure Cup

Disney’s Pleasure Island is an interesting place to spend an evening, as detailed here. It’s twenty dollars for admission into seven clubs, so it’s not a bad deal, right? Well, the problem is the cost of adult bevarages. Unless you’re rich, unlike me (anyone wanna pay us to live yet?), the $7.50 for a small screwdriver means Scrooge McDuck likely set the prices. But wait! For an additional 2 bucks (that’s $9.50, kids), you can get a Pleasure Cup, which is a larger cup, made of plastic, that says “Pleasure Island” on it. And you get to keep it. Score. And there’s even more! Refills in the Pleasure Cup are FREE!!!!!.....after the first $7.50 per refill. So, including cab fare, you’re looking at $60-70, and at the end of the night, if you’re coherent enough to hang onto your Pleasure Cup, consider yourself worthy of a pat on the back for the moral victory. Next time you get upset about a ten dollar pitcher of beer, think of Mickey Mouse drilling a hole in your wallet, and remember that things aren’t quite so bad at the local watering hole.
