Rich didn't do the sticker shock blog that he talked about; and although PN green beans aren't much more than in NYC, I'll mention that new paperback books at the stores cost $35.
I didn't bring money to work today, so when the coffee man came by, Roz, the receptionist, shouted me a drink.  I said thanks for the treat, and she told me that to buy food or drinks for others is a shout (colloquial).
