However, it's North's pricing strategy that truly showcases her business acumen. While she charges a standard $2 for a glass of lemonade to passersby, she ups the price significantly for those she knows. 

"If she knows you, she will fully scam you," Kim said, recounting how friends have called her to say North charged them $20 for a glass. North's clever tactic? "She'll grab their $20 and say, 'I don't have any change.'"
