Default grr - cost of living - where are you?!?!??!

finally got around to searching for the threads that have included cost of living stuff (including the ace excel spreadsheet someone did a few months ago) so that i could do a whizzy comparison thing and finally work out realistic $nz income we're going to need

but i can't find any of them! i've done advanced search on money, cost of living, living costs, household budget etc etc etc and absolutely zip

beginning to think the search function's broken!

i've even started scrolling through ALL the posts to find them - checked 20 pages now from october onwards and still nothing...

it's me isnt' it?! bad workman blaming tools

anyway, l'al one has just woken up ready for lunch so i'm going to have to give up for now!

if anyone manages to help point me in the right direction whilst i'm elsewhere, i'd be enormously grateful!!

The site was down today for migration to new server. I guess some posts have been temporarily lost.

Although I'm wondering how out of date the costs on that will be now that petrol and food has gone up as much as it has!
