We just got back from Vision City, and the RH Hypermarket (grocery store). Just a quick stop in order to pick up a few cereals and little bits and pieces. Remember 1 kina = about 60 cents NZ (technically its 58 cents).
Nutragrain 290gm. K18.65
Special K 510gm K18.03 (that’s cheap so bought 2 boxes)
Special K 290gm Berry flavours K23.90
Apple Juice – 1 litre (x2) K9.90
Ham slices 328gm K12.12
Beef Mince 99% lean 1.024 kg. K30.67
Chicken soup pieces 700gm. K12.55
Pasta Sauce – Raguletto 500gm K6.95
Coke Zero 4 pack cans K11.55
Coke 4 pack cans K11.55
Rosemary spice in jar 18gm K7.35
Gregg’s rubbed oregano 15gm K8.95
Anchor salted butter 454gm K11.95
Eggs 65gm x 1 dozen (local) K12.40
Total price for a quick shop (incl 10% gst) K224.45
Which is about $130 NZD
So, next time you are at the supermarket, take this list – compare the costs, I think you might be surprised, some things are cheap – others, very expensive.
