I went shopping on sunday, local green grocers and butchers right next door to woolworths..
Watermelon : 90c a kilo
Bread wholegrain standard size loaf $1.49
Bananas 99c a kilo
Milk $2 for 2 litres
Apples 99c a kilo

Now I could have gone to Woolworths right next door and paid..
Watermelon : $4.99 a kilo
Bread wholegrain standard size loaf $3.99
Bananas $4.99 a kilo
Milk $3 for 2 litres
Apples $3.99 a kilo

I have to explain this to people who already live here all the time... shop around don't just buy everything at Coles or Woolworths ffs ...

I can buy steak for $23.99 a kilo at Coles or $12.99 at the butchers next door... it's a no brainer but for some reason people just dont get it.

I noticed in one of your posts on another thread that your outgoings were 3k a week.
You're obviously on a good wicket if you're managing to cover that so why worry about the cost of parking.

It cost me 10 bucks last night to park at the MCG.
I'm ok with that but I wouldn't pay 80 for a day.

Do you want to know about parking?
