Sure sign Legislature has convened
Posted by: Mike Kaszuba under Funding Updated: February 4, 2010 - 3:29 PM
Before today -- the start of the 2010 Legislature -- a can of Coca Cola Cherry Zero in the vending machines located in the basement of the State Capitol was 85 cents. Today: $1.
A bag of Earl's Popcorn Supreme was $1 before today. Today: $1.25.
The good news: If things go according to form, the prices will drop as soon as the Legislature adjourns in May.
