really? damn. I've tried theirs, it's pretty good but I thought the price was a bit steep for it.

Please tell me a chicago dog isn't $6 either.

I’m not really a hot dog person, but from what I’ve seen, those will usually run you $3-$4, maybe $5 with fries.

I’m sure I was exaggerating a bit, but I haven’t seen a beef for less than $7.50 in years. Normally in the city, I’m looking at $9.00+, especially when adding hot peppers (I also like cheese sauce on my beef, so that will often put me over $10.00).
