The Usage of At

I am trying to help a friend understand and just realized that I don't understand this part of grammar either.
I know that "at" can be used for a precise time and also in telling places, but how do I explain this example?
EX: This business offers translation services 'at' very reasonable prices.

Very confusing to me, as it's just natural and I've never thought about it. It's neither time nor location...
