Pretty sure I paid less than $5 for a Red Stripe Bold at the airport on the 23rd....we are talking about the Groovy Grouper, right?

All of this being said...it isn't a good buzz for JUTA to be stopping for "cheap" $5 beers when the purpose of taking the JUTA is to save $$$. However, I don't think anyone is forcing you to buy beer. Did they prohibit you from bringing beer on the bus? Also, if you don't or can't have a private driver, then stops are at the mercy of the driver. You have lived long enough to know THAT!

If you really need to save the $15 each way to take the bus, then you are getting what you paid for. If you have two or three people, you just spent more on the bus than a private driver....just sayin...
