I don't wear progressives, but my lenses, frames and exam run close to that (although not quite) because my prescription is so bad (-1200 or so in each eye). By the time everything gets factored in, it adds up. So, yes, maybe your friend just went to an expensive optician or maybe she just has a difficult prescription.
