With this election over, in the few days before ads for the 2020 candidates hit, let’s take a look at a bi-partisan issue confronting Missourians: extravagant ice costs.

This was the second time in recent months I found ice as a surcharge item, though the first came at a white table cloth place which also hit me up for “extra bread.”
