expensive

Living in a remote place is a great way to not have access to fresh fruits and vegetables, and this is wild. Twitter user KataraPiujuq showed some of the crazy high prices for fruit and vegetables, and how it's a bit of an issue. Just seeing a bag of oranges go for 20 bucks is enough to make anyone frustrated.

Thinking he was making the more affordable choice, this guy accidentally ate himself a few hundred dollar's worth of high-end beef. Without the knowledge that this is how restaurants price this stuff, we would probably have made the same mistake. For some other things to not buy, here are absurdly overpriced things people have seen.

We all know someone who, against better judgement, will buy into the complete BS of an expensive product, and assume that the high price tag is a legitimate marker of quality. It's sad to see, but when someone spends literally any money on a rock in a bag, that's kind of on them. Here are some products that are getting more expensive and somehow worse, as well as some signs someone is trying way to hard to look rich.

Every industry has its sketchy secrets, and once tons of companies realized they could use their popular brand to leverage their loyal customer base into paying more for less, you can find yourself looking at a creme egg going "whhaaaaa???". It's also easy to fall into the nostalgia trap of "remember the better olden days" when that product wasn't much better to start with, but shrinkflation has definitely attacked a variety of products and things from all sides.

We live in a world with super rich people and super poor people, and it can get weird as hell. One of the strange consequences of this world is people who try to act super rich, but that often amounts to being total jerks and completely alienating the people around them. Here's a bunch of stories of rich kids getting their world burst by real life, as well as stuff rich people buy that everyone else hardly thinks about.

Someone on AskReddit kickstarted a thread about people's most costly mistakes. Some mistakes have a knack for wiping out the wallet, depleting all the funds, and ultimately teaching folks very expensive lessons. But sometimes, there's no lesson to be learned. It was just an honest accident. 

If you're gonna be really serious to your server and demand that they bring you a beer with every passing, then get ready for your wallet to explode. It's hard to tell what this guy's goal was, but his words were the nails in the coffin. The service industry is at times lawless and full of characters, so you get a lot out of tales from servers who have seen it all.

This customer left a poor review for this mechanic without letting all the facts out. The owner responded with some pretty critical information that put the reviewer in a very different light. For another review that demanded a heavy response, here's a donut shop owner who handled a customer's angry review like a boss.

Recently Artist David Datuna made a statement by eating Maurizio Cattelan's art installation, which was a banana taped to a wall that was worth well over a hundred thousand dollars. Call us haters of modern art, but we're pretty happy to see low effort trash that people get to call "art" get eaten like the goddamned banana that it is. Artist Karla Ortiz said this about complacency of modern art galleries. Oh, also people are pretty sure this was part of a money laundering scheme.

Landlords always seem to promise things like working dishwashers and hot water, but sometimes fall short of their ability to provide an adequate living situation in exchange for your cash. Rent is expensive too, so paying a whole lot to live in a place with a terrible landlord who doesn't fix anything is an absolute nightmare. When this woman's boyfriend was being taken advantage of, she stepped in and made it too expensive for the landlord to NOT get the washing machine fixed.

Feels good when someone's crappy behavior is rewarded with a fitting punishment. In this case, two rude dudes who overstepped their bounds got a talking to and left with the massive bill they created. Sometimes employees get their own petty revenge on terrible customers, but this one came down from their own boss.

If you're frugal, consider this encouraging. If you yourself choose to spend money on stupid things, then here are some people like you. Who knew there were so many people out there spending money on useless scams, golden motorcycles and terrible concerts. For some more regrets, here are 30-year-olds sharing what they regret about their 20s.

Apple recently revealed that their new $5000 dollar computer does not come with the stand. Here's a video of them unveiling their thousand dollar stand. Thanks Apple. Anyway, the internet did what it did best and did the math on the other things you could buy if you have $999 laying around. Choose wisely.

We're not sure what kind of person tries to spray paint a four hundred dollar vase, but it makes sense that it's the same kind of person who demands that the store she bought it from pay for her mistake. We're kind of hoping this customer is lying about the whole thing in order to defraud the store, but given the stupid-ass customers we've dealt with in our own lives, she's probably telling the idiotic truth. For a triumphant story of an employee who actually gave an awful customer a piece of their mind, check out this cashier who told off a Karen and lived.

Cooks and Servers are eager to tell you exactly what to look for to avoid wasting too much money on bad food in a dirty restaurant. So here are some red flags to look for the next time your friend tries bringing you to a place they "swear is decent." For more insider knowledge on restaurants, here are some of the biggest mark-ups and ripoffs in the industry.

A UK steakhouse got some free publicity over the awesome fail of a server who mistakenly served a crazy expensive wine. Seems like a win to be the person who finished dinner and only afterwards realized they drank a bottle of wine that's worth a car. Seriously, each sip of that is worth like 200 dollars. Anyway, it seems like the restaurant was cool about the mistake, so that's nice.
