Nothing's cheap anymore!

Just back from town. One thing about this week... after saving a few bob from not buying 7 day bus rambler tickets (walking instead), we bought a 7 day DART train ticket! And thing is I have taken today and Friday off! And I only use the DART ticket for 5 days anyway! Such a rip-off..wish there was a 5 day ticket. Talk about things being expensive... a cd album now costs nearly as much as a dvd. What's the story?!? Just saw an Aphex Twin new mix album, and that was around €28... eep!
Apart from that, got myself a DryFlow shirt, a 1st aid kit... paid with my credit card, and guess what, the card swipey thing was not authorising my card transfer, and the shop assistant had to ring the bank up. So what was wrong? Someone nicked my card, or someone cancelled it, or something I bought recently caused some problems with my card... but as it turns out, the banks were doing random checks on cards, and mine was one of those. So after the phone call, it went through fine...phew! My plastic is fine! :)
