There Is A Club Sandwich Index!

"

WASHINGTON: Relish club sandwiches? You should head for New Delhi which offers them at the cheapest rates in the world while Paris has the most expensive ones, according to a global survey by an online travel service.

Paris, often thought of as the world's most romantic city, has just been deemed the most expensive city in the world to order a club sandwich at $33 by Hotels.com.

The least expensive cities for a club sandwich from all 30 global cities surveyed are New Delhi, India and Mexico City, Mexico, with the average price coming in at just $10.

A standard lunch available in hotels worldwide, was used as a universal measure of affordability in the Hotels.com Club Sandwich Index (CSI).

The CSI average price has been calculated by taking the real prices paid by guests for a club sandwich within 1,000 five, four and three-star hotels located in popular travel destinations across 26 countries, with 10 US cities measured.

I honestly can't decide what is more pathetic:

  • Some sad online travel service surveys 26 countries, analysing the price of a club sandwich. OR
  • Giving this idiotic exercise a fancy term – Club Sandwich Index. OR
  • TOI thinking this is 'news worthy' and reporting it. OR
  • People commenting on the 'news' article:
    • Ishan (Mumbai)

      Mumbai club sandwich is the cheapest and best at 40 Rs

Cyberotic Head Explode… Information Overload… And I … Just Can't Take It … Anymore (Crtsy: Aerosmith – Does The Noise In My Head Bother You).

Saying that I am looking forward to the end of the world, would be an understatement. Is there any way I could help speed up the countdown to The End? Seriously!

All these nuclear weapons all over the fucking globe, will someone please fire a few? Come on! I said PLEASE!

Fucking retards.
