#2 I usually don’t brag about owning expensive things, but I just left the grocery store.
Image source: Actuaryba, Greta Hoffman / Pexels Petrus_Rock: Just groceries. We used to be able to fill a cart to the brim with 200-250 euros. Now it’s cheap if we can fill half a cart for that price.
#3 Sanitary pads.
Image source: aasbsinthe, Natracare / Unsplash uffdathatisnice: It costs me $16 and my sanity to get my period every month.
#4 Bras are freaking insane. And they’re not something you can cheap out on. I lost weight recently and had to replace my bras. I wanted to cry.

#6 Rent.
Image source: someuname, Aaron Sousa / Unsplash SaltySpitoonReg: It’s insane how quickly it’s gone up. When I started renting 5 years ago, my apartment was just over $1,000 a month. Now it’s just under 2k. 5 years and nearly doubled. Insane.

Image source: notyourregularninja, Vlad Deep / Pexels Honeypott615: I literally pay almost 300 for just liability on a car that is paid off and I’ve been in no accidents and my car is 11 years old !! That’s how much I was paying for full coverage when I was leasing my car. Their reason is just the cost of living. Okayy glad yall can jack that price up while I haven’t gotten a raise and I ask for a raise and I get laughed at (literally by the boss) DISGUSTING.

#17 I don’t drink pop, I don’t eat meat, I don’t eat chips, but I used to years ago and the prices are shocking now. I just bought some protein bars and when I was putting them away I came across a long forgotten one from the same company that somehow got lost in the pantry. I swear it was 1/3 bigger than the new ones for the same price.

#18 Prescription medicine.
Image source: Nena902, JESHOOTS.com / Pexels Inked_Chick: My migraine medication, without insurance, is 2400$ a month for SIXTEEN pills (two 8pks). And there isn’t a cheaper generic version. You also can’t split up the amount to pay less in an emergency. It comes in an 8pk for 1200$. All of it or none of it. It’s criminal. I’m in debilitating pain. It’s not like I want it for funsies. Edit to add: my insurance does cover it so I only pay 11$ but every month insurance screws around for 10 days wanting to deny it so it’s an agonizing waiting game where I can’t get emergency doses :(

#22 A house. I recognize this is different than “every time you buy it”, but whenever I casually browse houses for sale in my area, I think to myself, “How does anyone these days ever save up enough to even pay a 10% down payment? Let alone pay the mortgage with interest rates these days.”

#23 Baby Formula.
Image source: keepingitfr3sh, Lucy Wolski / Unsplash insolentjuice: Horribly expensive. Apparently, it’s the most commonly shoplifted item. So sad. Netwytch: A small can of hypoallergenic formula is $37.00. My 7-month-old goes through multiple cans per week. I pay more for my baby’s formula per week than I do groceries for me and my husband.

As a truck driver, I no longer eat any meal out of a truck stop restaurant anymore. A T-bone steak dinner at the Petro cost almost $40 out the door after taxes and a tip. I was able to justify investing in a vacuum sealer, a dometic 12 volt fridge/freezer and a gas one camping stove. All in all my total initial cost to start saving more money has been almost $1k to prep my own food and I’m going to make all of it back after 3 or 4 months if I just cut the restaurants out of my budget entirely. I’ve also found that brewing your own tea or coffee,and using drink mixes cuts back on costs significantly seeing as a bottle of Gatorade cost like $3.45. Image source: TheLimpinator
#25 Razor blades. What the hell? You would think these are individually forged by hand by master craftsmen.
Image source: Maverick_1882, SteveBuissinne / Freerangestock Edit: the only cartridge blades I now buy are for my wife. I’ve grown a beard and use Wahl clippers for both my noggin’ and face. For the most part I use a Braun electric to trim and tidy (Mr. Neck Beard is not attractive to Mrs. Maverick).
