Love Uber but do watch out, last year they did "Surge" pricing around the Downtown area. On Saturday night and my 'brilliant' idea of taking some out of towners to get a H&F burger wound up being quite expensive. What is Surge Pricing?

I think mine was like 15% more. I've never heard of that (or experienced it). How big of an area if affected by the surge?That is, would it make sense to jump on the Marta and go up a stop or two, or is it usually city wide?Maybe that's another question we need to be asking - which supermarkets are (easily?) accessible from the Marta line?
