Ripped Off!


I hate getting ripped off! Today, Steve came home with a 1kg bag of rice. You don't pick your own groceries out at the store, you just ask for something and they get it for you. So you have to check what they are giving you. And naturally, the store owner wants to sell the most expensive brand, and it feels like, especially to the foreigner. So I saw this nice brand of rice and had to look at the price. 142/-!!!!! I can get rice for 20/- that is fine and not full of rocks. So why on earth would I want rice that is 7 times as much? I try not to blame Steve for not looking, or knowing, the price. When I told him how much rice usually costs he was shocked and said he would try to take it back. Sometimes I just feel like screaming!
