The septics are specialists at bumping up the prices if they think they have a captive audience.
A few years ago 4 of us went to New Orleans for Mardi Gras. In the final five days leading up to Fat Tuesday itself the room rates essentially doubled each day. Along with beer prices, club entry, etc etc.
We stood for 2 days of sharing a single room between us, then told them to stuff it, put their money where their mouth was and find those other people that would happily pay those rates for the room (as they'd been bending our ears about all week).
Judging by the looks on their faces as we left, I think we'd successfully called their bluff. Oh what a shame!
(Got our coats. Left. Never went back. Never will again)
No great surprise there then......
