“The drink prices are cheap”, said the English Teacher! Sheesh, and this is a novel where not breaking the illusion is important. Illusion shattered!

If cheap is defined as "low in price", then "the prices are low in price".The drinks are cheap, or the drink prices are low??
Colloquially, it's pretty common for people to say things like this. I see your point, though!
I guess I had an unreasonably strong reaction. It just looked wrong to me :)
