What sort of price are they asking over there?

I bought two bottles of Khalua the other day, they were $28 each. One was
the normal one, and the other was the "Mocha" version.

Didn't know which one to use in my Khalua Chseesecake for the SO's party,
so got both to try.

(The leftovers won't go astray ;-P
