You are a trapped market. It s like going to an NFL game and spending $12 on a paper cup of beer. Where else are you really going to go, especially if you re half-looped and don t want to drive?
Because they are so convenient.

Why are hotel mini bars so expensive? -
Because they have to make money somehow.They want you to go out and get drunk elsewhere, maybe in the lobby bar/restaurant. And when you return to your room, you will them continue drinking and when you wake up, you will owe them a nice sum of money.And they cater towards certain hotel customers who are willing to spend money on the mini bar, and by doing this they never leave their room.
