Plain white t-shirts that are virtually see through because the fabric is so thin. Some places charge £50 and they are usually made of artificial fibres.

Houses. Prices are ridiculous. I couldn't afford to return to live in the UK even if I wanted to.

I agree on Dominos, it's just bread, tomato sauce, a bit of cheese and some assorted bits on top. There's a nice Italian owned chippy round the corner that does pizzas far nicer for a fraction of the price.

Public transport.

Toomanygerbils · 22/02/2020 02:14

Things are only overpriced because people keep buying them though. Dominos is shite yet it’s advertised, plus peer pressure as it’s popular, so much people become brainwashed into thinking It’s a treat. That’s current life though, popular and trendy is the most important thing

cinema snacks

Definitely! At our local Light cinema a packet of sweets are £3.50 a bag. Over the road at the shops the same bag is £1.

Vets aren't overpriced, we're just used to a health system in the UK that's not subsidized by the government.

Agree with cinema snacks, and professional sports as a whole.

But Dominoes is very tasty, I love It but yes it's very expensive for what it is. We don't order unless there's an offer on!

Tradies. They charge exhortbitant prices for their time, then wonder why people try to diy repairs or just buy new.

A gin & tonic at the Park Lane Hilton. £26.
