800% increase

DaTruthSquad has a good analysis of what an 800% increase looks like:

Here are some figures to ponder: Would you pay ...

$12 for 1 slice of pizza?

$16 for 1 loaf of bread?

$32 for 1 small latte?

$9 for 1 small value-meal fast-food french fry?

$64 to use da Outerbridge Crossing?

$80 for that 1-way bus trip from Manalapan to NYC?

$280 for 1 mezzanine-level seat at Shea Stadium?
