Ticketmaster's idea of "buy one get one free" is marbles

I realize I'm taking aim at some easy targets here, but I had to share. I was tempted to go see School of Seven Bells with Fujiya & Miyagi next week until I saw that Ticketmaster surcharges turned a $15 ticket into a $26.75 ticket. Just don't like them enough for that. But then I saw today that they were running a two-for-one special on that show, so I checked it out thinking I might con somebody else into going and save a couple bucks. Turns out, it cost $29.60. Essentially the same as buying two full priced tickets (sans surcharge rape). What a deal.

I bought some tickets from Ticketmaster a few weeks ago and they charged me $2.00 to print my tickets at home.
