twanvl comments on Rational Home Buying

[twanvl]

it costs $20 at a nearby store, and it costs $40 at a store that’s fifteen minutes away … which costs $2000 at a nearby store, and $2020 at a store that’s fifteen minutes

Shouldn’t these numbers be the other way around? I.e $40,$20 and $2020 and $2000? Why would you drive fifteen minutes to pay an extra $20?

Thanks, fixed.
