Ripped OffA friend who worked in a second hand record shop told us about a Japanese guy who regularly bought "rare" records in their shop. One time, he was looking for a signed copy of "Never Mind the Bollocks".
They didn't have one. Four people and one magic marker later, they did. Ker-ching!
How have you been ripped off? Who did you rip off? Are you a British Gas customer?

Traveling ExpensesA couple of years back I decided to move to England. I thought I would pop over to Southport where my mate lived and scope the place out. I did not like it and came home. This is how the traveling expences worked out for me and the girlfriend.
Taxi from my mates house to the train station £2.20
Train from Southport to whatever that station just before Liverpool is called £5.00 each
Taxi to the ferry port £2.00
Ferry to Dublin £10.00 each.
-----------------
Total to get from Southport to Dublin - £34.20 (about 50 Euro)
Taxi from Ferry at Dublin to Heuston train station EUR 27
Train to Co. Kerry EUR 60 each
Taxi to my folks house 12 EUR
-----------------
Total to get from Dublin to Kerry - EUR 159
Note that both taxi journeys were less than 10 minutes, you gotta love Irish transport. A distance over the same journey cost me three times as much!
