    £3.20 for a bottle of water at the Killers gig ... £3.30 for a pint of Harp

    You were ripped off! It was £1.60! Are you sure you didn't get 2 bottles?

    £3.20 for a bottle of water !!! That is ridiculous. Absolutely no way I would have paid that.

    As for pints I think £3 is about average these days, certainly in Belfast city centre anyway.

    Positive, I nipped out in the middle of a song to get my wife a drink as she was driving whilst the rest of our party where boozing (well drinking Harp:tongue: )

    The night before at the Kaisers, I paid £8.80 for a pint of Harp, Small Fanta, Coffee & bag of fruit gums :eek:

    In our golf club (Strabane) they have put the price up to £2.50 and there is a lot of complaints :confused:

    It seems we have it cheap.

    Food & Drink is an absolute ripp off in the Odyssey. We spent at least £30 at the killers gig at the weekend on a few beers and smirnoff ice. They must have made a fortune as the queues at the bars were madness!!

    I go to the ice hockey matches too, at least you don't get searched then and can take in a bottle of water and some sweets.

    They have overcharged you! Get onto Mount Charles catering and complain ;)
