Council tax - ridiculous
Water companies - we moved from a 2 bed flat in London to a 4 bed house in the home counties, still just the 2 of us, same amount of showers and washing, dishwasher, water went up from £24 pm in London to around £120 per quater, £180 after baby was born!
Branded clothing, compare it with pices in the States and it's sooooo much cheaper over there, why? eg, compare timberland clothing in £ and $ - stark difference!
Electronics - my dh bought >£2k's worth of camera equipment (lenses and body, backdrops, lighting, umbrellas, etc) from the States, even after adding all the costs he saved about £400 on the cheapest uk quote, not grey imports, brought in through all the correct customs channels, couriered, etc. paid all the correct fees, and it's not even very high end stuff! Standard Nikon!
Airport parking charges, and why does it cost more to pick up/deliver a rental car to an airport? I always feel like I'm breathing money around airports/airlines!
Weddings! Why is everything assosciated with a wedding sooooo much more expensive than if quoted for a birthday lunch or something. It's the same stuff, same amount of work, same space occupied, why the inflated price?
Rant over, thanks!
