For me, it's more about the convenience of not having to leave the SkyClub early to go to a shop, buy a water, and wait in line to pay. But, yes, Atlanta's prices are extortionate. Paid $3.89 yesterday for a bottle of water that is $1.89 outside the airport. It's expensed so not a huge deal but annoying when other airports manage to charge much closer to street pricing.
