Hi. What can I get for you today? Hi. I'll have a medium latte, please. Great. Would you like to try it with almond milk and our new vanilla syrup? It is very popular today. Oh, that sounds nice. Yes, I will try it. Perfect. That will be $9, please. Wait. $9? Why is it so expensive? The base latte is $6.50. Almond milk is an extra $1.50, and the syrup is $1. But you offered them to me without mentioning the extra charge. I thought it was a free promotion. I'm sorry, ma'am. Add-ons always cost extra. It is our policy. Well, that is very misleading. I am not paying $9 for this. So, what do you want to do? Please cancel the add-ons. Just make a regular latte. Fine. Your new total is $6.50. Thank you. Has a barista or waiter ever tricked you like this? Yes, I paid extra, or no, I always check. Tell us in the comments. Follow for more.
