All things you enjoy once and that's it. They are gone. A music CD is something you can listen to as often as you want, as many times as you want. I just don't see why 12 bucks for something like that is gouging at all.

I avoid bars due to the insane prices for drinks. Better to have my buddies over and open a case a beer on the deck.
Don't eat out that often due to the prices.
As for movies i frequent the cheap theatre in SE Calgary where one can pay $5 bucks to see a flick. Haven't been in one of the large theatre chains in years. Plus we have a movie theatre here in High River where one can see a flick for $8 and $5 on mondays and tuesdays.
Like I said earlier, I don't see 12 bucks as a fair value for a CD. There are always options and in this case, if I wait long enough i can pay the price I think they are worth.
