We live in curious times, and we have the kind of abundance that nobody else from previous generations ever had. We also know that there are things about our current situation that are not that good. Sure enough, we have nearly everything we could ever want, but some of these things are way too pricey to be enjoyed by everyone. This is why a thread on Reddit emerged, and people shared the things they consider overpriced. You can read the whole discussion on Reddit.
1. The fruit
Talking about groceries, we need to mention this. The post reveals the truth, as fruits are too expensive these days.
2. The mobile plans
Some people would disagree with this post, but we tend to agree with it, and for a good reason.
3. The therapy
This is true, and we have always wondered why the prices of these sessions are most often whopping.
4. The events
It seems that this person nailed something that we rarely think or speak about, but we believe this is true.
5. The system
Well, this is the one expense that needs to be paid for by your relatives, but it is true that it is very expensive.
6. The salads
This is one post that most of us could surely relate to, and we understand that eating fast food is cheaper.
7. The suitcases
We never realized that suitcases were so expensive, and we think checking the prices would confirm this.

It seems that some things in life are very expensive, and they matter the most, unfortunately. This is one of them.

Here is a post that shares something we all pay for, meaning that we understand this burden quite well.
10. The tickets
This thing is something we all love, but we all know we need to pay a high price in most cases. It’s worth it, though.
11. The glasses
Modern-day tech resulted in more people wearing glasses and having a pair of those costs an arm and a leg.
12. The cards
We know this person’s pain, as we have been through this. We also know that we could not live without them.

The mountain of student debt continues to pile up, and this is due to the truth this post reveals.
14. The ambulance
Calling an ambulance is so expensive that people often risk it by using their own vehicles to get to the hospital.
15. The furniture
The post you see here is something that we can all confirm. The prices of furniture these days are simply whopping.
16. The tests
We expected these tests to be reduced in price by now, but it seems their price levels are cemented for some reason.
17. The property
Those willing to buy real estate are currently being forced to pay ridiculous amounts of money to buy a piece of property.
18. The parks
Parks are expensive to visit, regardless of the number of rides and attractions they offer. They will rip you off in a matter of hours.
19. The healthcare
Studying or medical attention are things that cost a lot these days, and we guess this should not be a fact.

This seems to be one very pricey combo, and we know that people who work in such places know what it really costs.
25. The equipment
This is something that should either be affordable or at least it should be covered by medical insurance.
26. The toiletries
We cannot argue with this post, as it speaks the truth. These consumables are rising in prices constantly.

We know this is true, and we continue to buy this product. We guess we often need it when we don’t bring any from home.
28. The internet
Some parts of the world benefit from cheap internet service, but the U.S. still has relatively high prices.
29. The rent
We guess that people are forced to pay extremely high rents these days, and we know they should be lower.

This is one of the things that should be very affordable, but they are often not, and that is weird.

Trains are surprisingly expensive not only in the UK but in most of the countries around the world, too.

Skiers out there would immediately relate to this post and confirm that their gear is extremely expensive.
33. The baby formula
This is one essential product that millions of families need daily, and we are surprised it is so expensive.

If there is one thing that we will never ever accept, this is the price of popcorn at any movie theater. This is a steal.
35. The drinks
There seems to be a whole lot of things that should not be so expensive, and drinks at bars are on that list.
36. The fuel
Fuel is very expensive in most parts of the world, and we believe that this should not be like that. It is not fair.

Similar to glasses, braces are something many people need, but they could hardly afford them due to high prices.
42. The products
Similar to bathroom consumables, sanitary products for all kinds of purposes are very expensive, and we wish it wasn’t so.

This kind of therapy costs thousands per cycle, and we think this is not right, as many people need it.
44. The airport parking
Parking at an airport parking lot is something that always costs a lot more than it should.
45. The prosthetics
People who need prosthetics are forced to pay a lot of money every few years to be able to live a normal life.
46. The groceries
Those trying to eat healthily are sometimes forced to pay a hefty amount of money to fill a bag of such groceries.
