Refills are universally free in LA. My brother gets really annoyed
when they're not free when he visits here. I agree with him. I
hate getting gouged on refills. I don't mind paying a reasonable
price for a refill (say 10-50 cents (would you believe I just 
noticed this keyboard has no cent sign? And I haven't used my
manual typewriter in years...)) but $1-2 is too much for iced tea
or soda.
