Re: Things that are cheaper in the UK vs Canada?

$2.99 unless on sale is pretty much the price. (They are on sale alot, until I specifically want one of course) and to add, I am referring to English cucumbers not the horrible field ones

Re: Things that are cheaper in the UK vs Canada?

I have not seen the level that was being described in Wigan and what I have seen in the cities in the SE of England, in Halifax. Totally different ambience outside a nightclub at 3am

I have come to realise that once your child hits junior high there is not a great deal of difference in the culture in schools. Its all drama for the girls and ridiculousness whether you are in the...

Re: Things that are cheaper in the UK vs Canada?

Do they have caramel macciattos in the UK? I wonder what it costs? I pay about $4.95 plus tax here for one, so $5.69. For it to be cheaper it would have to be less than £3.55

Re: Things that are cheaper in the UK vs Canada?

Re: Things that are cheaper in the UK vs Canada?

I think I would have to clip my horse out as his coat is intense in the winter. Instead I just swop the riding for skating or, sometimes skiing.
