I thank heavens I live where I live.

All Aussies know that Sydney has been over-rated, over-priced and over-accentuated, when it comes to this country and that's a shame.It's ruining a once beautiful city.

I'm in WA and I have NEVER paid anything like the prices you mentioned for groceries. I'm in the bush too, so our prices and choices are more limited.

There are bulk places in OZ, Aussie. The Big cheapie bulk buying place that was based on a no-nonsense approach, adapted from a German Model I think, has been in oz for a while now. It started in NSW and Vic I think? I can't remember it's name. Go a googling

Can you get to a markets on a weekend? Well worth the effort.

Don't lose your enjoyment of shopping and food preparation. You will be doing it for the rest of your life, after all

And spoiled or not, Tell that hubby of yours to get off his BUTT!!!!!!
Children are spoiled. Grown men make their own choices.

Sorry had to say it.

for you Aussie girl. Chin up
