What is an item or service that you procure on a regular basis that you think is a total rip-off?

Instacart :/ you pay elevated prices, service fee, tip, and surprise! The ONE item you needed and for which you placed the entire order is “out of stock.” Ok can I cancel my entire order then? Nope!

Internet. The Internet service provider that I use does not offer good services at all. My Internet speed is too slow for 2020.

A lot of alcoholic beverages, wine in particular - there are $10-20 table wines that are just as good as $500 bottles, and don't get me started on restaurant markups SMH

TV licence! Its about £160 a year to access BBC programming, services and radio. And its basically unavoidable because all tech automatically installs BBC stuff. So you have to pay! I wouldn't mind so much if you could opt out and you never see BBC ever again - but its basically a tax for something I don't really use anymore.
