Have you ever had to wait in a long line for coffee, food, etc. behind a couple of "chatty Cathy's", gabbing away, and then when you FINALLY get to the front of the line one of them looks up at the menu and asks "Hmm, now what do I want?" Makes me want to strangle everyone in arms reach. 🤬

Those are the same folks who wait until the cashier has rung all three of their overflowing grocery carts before digging into their purse for their check book or bank card. And who then spend another twenty minutes trying to figure out how to write a check or how the card reader works.

Yes! It's always a shock for me when I come back to the U.S. A combo at Taco Bell (3 tacos and a large soda) is $14.95 in Massachusetts! YIKES. I remember when they were under $5, and it was not that long ago.

Heh i got nasi goreng last night. They have changed owners a few times over the past 7 years. It cost $16.80 though their fb page hasn't been updated and still shows it as $9.80 -- less ingredients over time and more expensive now.

Was also looking at the menulog delivery options for them too -- they mark it up more for this dish and charge a service fee and a delivery fee too. Double the price for a 2m drive.

The weather peeps are wrong AGAIN. Predicting three days of rain starting tonight.. It started this morning, so much for my plans outside.

This day and age how can they be 12 hrs off, they predicted it last night on the 10pm news.

Wow, I haven't had nasi goreng since I lived in Indonesia. It was pretty cheap there. $16.80 is expensive!

Weather peeps are wrong a lot! My mom and I are going on a Disney cruise next week and the day before we are spending a day in Epcot. The weather is forecasting afternoon rain showers that day--just our luck.

The initial owners and a price point of $9.80 was worth every penny back then, they really did include various 'seafood' in it. These days they add just three medium sized prawns and call it seafood. May just get the beef variant next time!

Holy cow, that's ridiculous. I remember people from Massachusetts coming to New Hampshire to shop due to the high prices there. But never imagined they were that high.

I haven't been to fast food restaurants down here, so I'm not sure what the prices are for meals. In the restaurants, you're lucky if you can find a meal for $14.95.
