1. Tires No reason it should cost $1000 to put tires on your car or truck.

2. Potato Chips. $5 for 12 ounces of sliced potatoes fried in oil?

3. Popeye's Fried Chicken shite costs $30 for a 12 piece with a couple sides and some biscuits.

4. Concert/Game Beer $9. For a beer.


What else you cheap bastards got?


Oh...GET OFF MY LAWN!

Beer was $11 at the Eric Church show in Nashville a couple of weeks ago. And it was just a Bud Light.

Hair cuts.

Think about it. You are paying someone to take scissors and cut your hair.

Going to the Movies. Redonk. However, I went see American Sniper in Raleigh, NC on Tuesday evening at a really nice theatre and it was $5.00 for ticket, $5.00 for a small popcorn/soda combo. Tax included

Weddings. Everything involved with them.

Eating out anywhere trendy. I despise and generally refuse to pay for "buzz."

Service charges on tickets. I'm driving to Tabernacle (Atl) Saturday when their box office is open to buy tix for Guster and taking the $13 fee for two $27 tix to the nearby Mexican joint to support local biz. I bought Shaky Knees tix on StubHub just because I hate ticketmaster.

3. Popeye's Fried Chicken shite costs $30 for a 12 piece with a couple sides and some biscuits. Don't eat that crap.

4. Concert/Game Beer $9. For a beer. F L A S K

TD Premium memberships. I've been sending Chicken $20 a month for years, and I guess I still haven't paid in full.
