It sounds like you live near my daughter. They have a scoop shop with
prices like that - using organic & local ingredients. The line is out
the door on warm days and after dinner because it's all Tech money
down there and they can well afford to pay $4 for a child sized scoop
of ice cream or frozen yogurt (no gelato at that shop). Compared to
that, my scoop of gelato was downright cheap.
