High Food Prices!

Hmmm. You might be onto something there.

I live in Newcastle. There's a Woolworths just up the road and there's several other Woolworths and Coles within 15/20 minutes drive of here. There are a couple of IGAs around, but Aldi is the only other supermarket chain in the area that really competes with them. Part of the main reason I go to Woolworths is the wider selection of produce and meat. But yeah you're right, it is kind of expensive. Perhaps I should start shopping at Aldi, at least for a few things.

lol it's funny that you mentioned the steak in Virginia because there's a really good butcher in the Virginia near Brisbane

It's a small world - But I wouldnt want to be stuck painting it.

Graham,
If you are going to be doing any more singing, you need a better mike to capture the power of your voice.

well we are still one of the only major countries in the world that have postive economic growth atm meaning our inflation is keeping pretty steady at rising our everyday pries. although considering how high our dollar is worth at the moment things should be alot cheaper. the ACCC really needs to get another major competitor to enter the scene

I live in los angeles, lots of Mexican restaurants which is nice. Not enough vegetarian stuff at decent prices though.

Australian food is wonderful!

I live in the UK and we have loads of main food shops in my city: ADSA, 2 Tesco's, Morrisons, ALDI, LIDL, Sainsbury, several Tesco Expresses and probably more I have forgotten. Two of them are 24/7 and because they are all competing food here is quite cheap, although it is going up too.

New ZeaLAND FOOD IS REALLY REALLY really really really EXPENSIVE - compared to NSW - i wanted to buy some lamb for dinner and i wasnt going to pay $34.00 per kg for lamb chops in NZ thats for sure cheaper to go to Maccas than buy groceries in NZ and they dont have the range that we have in NSW
