I actually paid the same for 2 Red Stripes one morning at Margarittaville,i had walked way down the beach and then way back the other way and I was ready for a cold beer but it was only 9am and the bars didn't open until 10am so I chatted with one of the workers cleaning the outside bar and after he looked around he popped open 2 of them for me and stashed the cash.I drank one there and took the other for a nice stroll down the beach back to Coco!Sometimes cost doesn't play into the equation!!
