Most annoying thing you have to buy?

    Coffee. I know it doesn’t seem like much and it is cheaper than a coffee shop, but $10 for a can of coffee just annoys me. It doesn’t help the the GF insists that you have to put in 2Xs what the directions say. She insists, even though I say, chemically speaking, after a certain amount you really aren’t getting much more coffee in the water. The water can only dissolve so much.

    That and gas. It hurts to think I can spend almost $100 just in transportation to and from my sister’s cabin just north of G.R.

    You guys that are only paying $1000 a month for day care are getting off easy. Last year it was a little over $23,000 for two kids 2 and 4. Can’t wait until they get into school. What i will really hate to buy is health care for lazy / illegal people.

    Water is something that I hate to buy, 2/3 of the planet is covered by water and I have to pay so much just to have it filtered and tested to make sure it meets government specifications.

    Any Gov’t related service. Every time I pay a “FEE”, I feel like I just tossed money into the burn barrel.

    Auto repairs!!

    I’m deathly afraid to go anywhere near a repair shop. Had a drivers side window that would go down normally but going back up was 50-50. Had it like that for 5 months before I broke down. Only cost about $100 to fix. But, 5 months of my kids doing drive thru transactions from the back seat was getting old.

    That’s another one for me. But I am so used to Ice Mountain that tap water doesn’t do it for me anymore, so I don’t feel too annoyed by it. I am just glad the GF doesn’t make me put it in the coffeemaker too.

    bobber lights. daycare is killing me right now. vehicle repairs, property taxes, and just about everything mentioned on here. Seems like everyone wants to give me the business and some JackA on wallstreet making a bazilion dollars reaps the profit.

    They have the “World’s first 100% compostable chip package”.

    Sunchip bag, very cool idea but a bad passenger on gravel roads. The noisy bag drove me nuts, I had to put it in the back to so I could make some phone calls.

    …oh and the picture of “Sockman” kinda creeped me out a little.

    Cable TV, no way around not having it located low in the bluffs. So now I get all the ads I do not want and am paying for them too.

    Fuel of any kind but particularly diesel. Paid $2.92 in Kansas last week, $3.25 yesterday here at home.

    Don’t tell me that robber barons are controlling the oil industry.
