The Cost of Living

It costs $305 to get your motorcycle learner's permit in South Australia.

It costs $3.80 for a peak time single trip bus ticket - great value if you are travelling from TTG to, say, the airport. But not such great value if you are travelling 5km down the road!

It costs $0 to use the internet at the library - but I invariably spend most of your time wondering what's the deal with all these other people who aren't at work at 1pm on a Tuesday and if they are hating it as much as me.

It costs $4.50 for a regular Boost Juice. SO not worth it.

It costs $1.34 for a litre of petrol at the servo across the road.

It costs $8 to see a movie today because it's Tightarse Tuesday - and I still feel ripped off, or at least I would if I hadn't been too tight to pay! What happens when Tightarse Tuesday is too dear for tightarses? What do we call it then?
