Here is a place that sucks the money out of the poor for no particular benefit: check cashings.

The PCs we have at home are so powerful yet they spend 99% of their life being idle. When your computer is on for the sake of being on, it's an opportunity to have it process information from the web.
The problem is, if you focus solely on cutting down image size, it's an invitation for the designer to add even more images.
I certainly remember bragging about my well established single sprite for most resources. Soon enough it became 20 unmaintainable sprites with duplicate content.
