Very entertaining thread Wotto. Definitely the right time to be there with the dollar being so strong. Is everything pretty cheap over there compared to Aus. or just some stuff?
Food is
way similar in cost - for our family of 4 lunches are around $30-$40 total - dinners can be from $50- $120 total, remembering too that we are in total tourist trap towns.
Clothes and shoes - about half price - Mrs got 3 sets of Levis the other day, a full jean, half jean and shorts - total $80.00
The Converse shoes we pay $100+ for - were $40.00
My daughter bought a hair straightener yesterday she had wanted for ages ( ceramic and $300 in Oz ) we got it for $110.00
