... And so hard for this cheap [censored] to quit whining!! I may have been priced out of this 'ol world... 1) At the gas pump 2) At the grocery store 3) At the medical insurance not covered bills 4) At the home improvement/hardware store 5) At the Amazon online store shipped to the house 6) At the recent electric bills (which have doubled overnight) 7) At the .................. (Whatever... I'm tired... just tired of paying whoever asks.....) I do believe my cheap [censored] is being gentrified from this 'ol world right in front of my old eyes.... Two years ago I was on top of the world financially Today it took $100+ bucks to fill a tank of gas (again), much less anything else....... Hope all of you are on top of your game... (Bonus*** If it took a quarter to go around the world... I couldn't afford to get out of Texas....)

Every time I pull up to the pump, I'm glad I bought the sedan and not the SUV. As much as I've been driving the past year, it's been a godsend having the better mpg.

If it means neighborhood only then I will have to ponder a more appropriate term to "stuff has got pricey everywhere I turn".
