Have y'all seen the price of eggs?
This situation is madness,
It's an egg!
It's not made of gold!
And soda at a gas station... where do they get the price point?
Are you serious?
The list of robberies is endless!
Redditor Coach_Carter_on_DVD wanted to share notes on all the things we're being fleeced over and asked everyone:
"What is criminally overpriced?"
At this point... EVERYTHING IS OVERPRICED!

Vegan Dieting GIFGiphy"Have you seen the price of lettuce in Canada?"
firmly_confused
"Oh yes... I am a Chef. Lots of restaurants aren't serving lettuce at the moment. Even burger joints are charging extra."
"GFS shredded lettuce 2021: $3.50 per bag Now: $21. Yeah. F**k lettuce."

"Funerals."

"Tell me about it. I lost my baby brother on 8/21 and my granny on 8/27. I had to pay for 2 funerals in 6 days this year. Literally about killed me financially, considering I was paying for cancer treatment for myself as well."
"My brother’s funeral was nearly 17k and my family helped with granny’s but that was still another 10k I paid and my family paid the rest. That’s not including the headstones, food, venues for the luncheon after the services. That added another 10k. I was out nearly 40k in 6 days."

"Human pharmaceuticals. My dog needed a chelation medication that my vet specifically said was on the pricy side but recommended a pharmacy that she worked with. I called with prescription in hand, and they quoted $3,000+ for a month’s supply. Then the rep stated they accidentally read the cost for humans. Dog cost was actually $60. Same dosage, same pill count, but adding chicken flavor and putting a little dog on the label dropped the price 98%."

"Epi-pens in the U.S. I mean, at least it's not something I need to use regularly, but those things are SO expensive. I'm just trying to not die if I accidentally eat a peanut. Thankfully I found a much cheaper alternative, but they're hiking their prices now too. I currently have an auvi-q, but they are going up to $100+ after this year as I was recently informed by my allergist."

Ink pens are pennies. How is this possible?!

"No, no don't worry! You can sell them back at the end of the class! Well, some of them you can... for 1% of what you paid for them."

Necessary for Life
"Inhalers. I have a crappy high deductible plan and pay $220 a month for something I need to breathe. For Symbicort. I'm an oddball and Albuterol doesn't work for me. My inhaler is that price until I reach my (high) deductible. I use the generic, but I thought it was easier saying Symbicort than typing out the generic name. If I use GoodRx, it doesn't apply to said high deductible. I appreciate everyone's suggestions."

"Look at Mark Cuban's cost plus drugs. You can get 3 albuterol inhalers for $39.90 it's costplusdrugs.com, and they don't accept any insurance by design so they can sell their drugs at that price."

HOW MUCH?!?!
"My husband needs rituximab infusions due to a rare kidney disease. They are $16,000 each. That's $16,000 per four hour infusion. And they aren't covered by our insurance."
vigef85724
"Rituximab has a manufacturer program that provides the drug for free or low cost if your insurance has denied it. Ask to speak to the hospital social workers about it. I deal with this on a daily basis and its a fairly easy program to qualify for! That being said, drug prices are insane and should be criminal."

"Ticket website service fees!"
dumbname2727
"Metallica announced a tour recently and the tix my friends got were $260 before fees. There were then $80 in fees. Running a ticket website must be the easiest business ever. A lot of the time you can’t even buy physical tickets for a concert at the venue anymore because these sites get exclusive deals with bands. It’s such bulls**t."
