"Price thingy" is always an issue, no matter how much or little you may have.

I am one of those who grew up dirt poor, as did DH. You don't accumulate wealth by spending it without obtaining the best value ~ and the best value is not necessarily the cheapest.
Dirt poo? Me too and a lot of others and I would think, most of us. If we don't buy at the market the vendors don't show up and then we complain about that. There isn't a vendor inside TV that makes their own stuff and if they don't survive because of the pricey thing then we complain because we have to leave TV to get stuff. I believe in purchasing value and that, sometimes, is paying a higher price for the same thing to help stores and vendors survive. From what I have seen here, in the year I have lived here, I am in the minority.....the pricey thing is the driver.
