Very Expensive

Have you had a picture framed lately? I brought a photo in to get framed today. I had a 50% off coupon and was surprised by the price which was quoted. It was almost $300 for a custom frame, a mat, and glass to cover the photo. That was the price after taking the 50% off. The final piece will be about 20inches x 24inches. I suppose that prices do go up like everything you buy does. The woman before me had a print framed. Hers was $1000. I guess I got off cheap.
