I have seen studies showing as much as 47% loss in sales for merchandise that is not priced. Vendors and restaurants need to think before they open their doors.
I agree. My pet peeve is First Watch. When a couple sits down, the waitress will immediately show up and pour 2 cups of coffee. They don't realize that they have already spent 6 dollars on coffee before they even look at the menu. But, it wouldn't help anyway because the menu doesn't show prices for any beverages.
