Various lists of "Pet Peeves" show up occasionally in newspapers. For each of the three "pet peeves" that follow explain why the firm prices as they do.

(a) I think the price of movies is outrageous. You pay $10 to see a movie at night and it's only $5 during the day.

(b) I took a date to the movies last weekend and after buying some popcorn and soda, it ended up costing more than $30! I should have waited and rented the DVD for $1.99.

(c) Why are items in hotel mini bars so expensive? Do candy bars and bottles of water really have to cost $5?

The answers should be based on the "Pricing" concept in Marketing.
