Cake pricing?

What is normal pricing for a cake? I think I have heard that it goes by the slice. I am getting pricing from a girl and she said her most expensive is $4.75 a slice.

    We paid $2.50 a slice.  That's about the minimum you'd pay around here.

    <div>I'm in Tallahassee, so if you're one of the many in Jacksonville, I'm probably not going to be much help.  But I used The Cake Shop.</div>

    $3.25 was the lowest I found in Pensacola at Publix. Too far for you but it gives you a ball park. The baker we chose was $4.25. That included delivery & a storage box for the top tier.  So many baker do not leave boxes for left overs, when I asked they charged extra for this. They also provide you with an anniversary cake that is a re-creation of the top tier of your cake.

      We used Publix too and the cake was about $390 for three tiers with delivery.  The top tier had to be removed before the first dance (it was on columns) because it was ready to fall over.  Not sure who was at fault because the florist put in fresh flowers when we weren't there.  The sad thing was that they raised their prices ALOT from the time we were quoted to the ordering :(
