Would you pay $50 for a banana?
Of course not. But according to Twitter, that ridiculous pricing is exactly what retailer Urban Outfitters, founded and headquartered in Philly, would do if they sold produce at their outlets.
The hashtag #UrbanOutfittersBeLike has been used repeatedly the past few days to mock the store's high prices for seemingly everyday items.
While the trend has evolved into extreme exaggeration for the sake of humor, some tweets aren't that far off the retailer's actual prices. For example:
Camera
Actually Urban Outfitters price: $100 - $200
Cups
Actual Urban Outfitters price: $8 - $40
Sandals
Actual Urban Outfitters Price: $30 - $160
Comb
Actual Urban Outfitters price: $10 - $27
Lipstick
Actual Urban Outfitters price: $4 - $48
Tote Bag
Actually Urban Outfitters Price: $50 - $140
To be fair, the "Grocery Tote Bag" could totally catch on.
