    Sex. I haven’t struggled to get it since I stopped being a teenager and the whole idea of an business arrangement leaves me feeling stone cold.

    I once went on a stag do to Berlin and was one of only two guys out of the group who didn’t wind up doing it with a prostitute. Myself and the other guy had the distinction of being the only single guys in the group, it caused me to reappraise a lot of things I took for granted about my mates.

    Oh and +1 for expensive bottled diet water. Sure, I pay £0.00000000001 for a glass of the stuff but I’m not paying a quid for a Peckham Spring.

    Car park car washes: Yeah. Sure. I’ll let you fek my paint up with dirty water and a gritty cloth so you can remove most of the dirt and fleece me for £5. I’ll do it myself thanks
    Or alternatively in recent weeks: Do you REALLY think I’m actually PAYING you to half clean my car that I only paid £400′ for? That rust is holding it together you know!

    I can’t bring myself to pay for prepackaged fruit n’ veg in tesco’s, fleecing money grabbing barstewards, they are in my town anyway as we only have an “ickle” tesco express and they’ve stopped doing loose fruit/veg etc, it’s all bagged and pre-packed thus dearer than buying it loose. They take great offence when i rip the bags open and take what i want to the checkout for them to weigh rather than buying 3 **** red onions in a red net bag for £1.40, of course the folk at the checkout don’t have the correct price code so they can’t sell me them thus i leave a pile of loose veg n’ fruit sitting on the checkout…every bloody night this week i’ve tried to buy what i want but they will not sell me it?.

    They’ve only started to do this pre-packaged thingy in the past week or so and don’t say shop elsewhere, i stay in a rural town in Galloway so nae choice anywhere…unless i drive to the big tescos 11miles away to buy my loose fruit n’ veg but why should our small town pay extra?, and why should i waste a gallon of petrol on a return journey?…..next time i do it, so that’s t’morns night then, according to the manager he’s apparently going to call the police and get me removed from the store…..**** hope so……my pal is the photographer for the local news paper and she’s gonna wait outside and take the picture so watch this space…if it happens t’morns night i’ll make headlines.

    Fresh fruit and Vegas so overpriced!
    If the government thinks everyone should eat healthier, then it should be cheaper than shite!

    Besides, that’s why all loose fruit/veg is onions or potatoes at big supermarkets 8)

    Hair cuts : no way am I paying 40-odd quid. You go in, tell them what you want, and they ignore you and do what they want. I cut my own thanks.
    Rapha clothing, yes it is very nice and I could afford it, but no way, I’m not paying that price for it.

    Most other things get assessed on a basis of cost, value & need.

    If I’m thirsty and there is only a shop selling water I’ll buy it. Generally don’t – unless it’s for beer making.

    Ice in bags.

    Has no one said lottery tickets? (notwithstanding the dude on here the other day who won 20k of course…) -stealth tax on the poor.

    Kindle books (that in the magnificently efficient process of converting to kindle format, hosting, selling and downloading via the world’s cheapest media website) somehow still have enough “value added” that they cost the same as the real book that has been physically printed (materials, press, employees), distributed (lorry, fuel, employee), put on a shelf in a bricks and mortar shop (rent, fittings, utilities) and sold to you by an employee with wages to pay. One great big “WTF?” about that.

    Car parking , thought I’d be the only one, but not and that includes Swinley. Thats why Broadmoor has a lower carpark thats free 5 mins away.
    Haircuts. I somehow have to ( indirectly) pay for the wife and 2 kids to be cut and although the hairdresser is a hunny, I bought some shears for a tenner and 2 yrs later still hack well.

    Posh watches, Porsches, Bang n Olufsen TVs or any other things that would mark me out as a city w***** (I do a good enough impression already)

    And of course Sky and the Daily Mail, but that goes without saying
