San Francisco: The rip-off city
From the SF Chronicle's Letters to the Editor on Monday:
A fine welcome, S.F.
A celebratory day, our anniversary, at SFMOMA and dinner at one of San Francisco's finest restaurants last Thursday turned into a nightmare as our car was towed where we parked across from the museum.
As we are handicapped seniors on a fixed income, the $453 towing charge plus the $93 parking ticket not only dampened our spirits but certainly crimped our annual spending for the next year.
Did we make a mistake and overlook a sign? Yes. But seriously...at what a huge cost? $546.
Isn't this a bit excessive?
It will be a while before our budget will allow us to return to San Francisco for entertainment. How many hundreds of others were similarly ripped off just last Thursday?
It's a wonder anyone ever returns to the city.
