I've enlisted my fiance's brother's girlfriend (complicated, I know) to help with the cake since I'm halfway across the country and it's kind of difficult to go do a tasting. Anyway. . .she and my fiance's brother went and did a cake tasting last Saturday. When I talked to her after the tasting, she said the cake was delectable, the baker was super nice, etc. Then she told me that the baker said the price of the cake and delivery would be $401 (we have a 10% off coupon if I place the order by the 29th), but she wasn't sure if that included tax. So I emailed the baker this morning asking if the $401 included tax and got a reply back saying the $401 was just for the cake, delivery was another $40 and tax was $32. So we're now looking at $473 for a cake to feed 150 (which honestly, I don't think we'll actually have more than 130). Is this in line with what everyone else is paying or is she just trying to screw me over since I wasn't actually there? I'm just kind of annoyed that she'd tell my cake proxy one thing and me another (although I guess I can't completely rule out a misunderstanding between them :-P).
