What Does My £30 Tesco Shop Say About Me?
Okay, those in the UK, you're prices ain't that bad. I could go to Safeway and buy 2 bags of groceries for $150-$200. I wanted to guy a pumpkin pie and whipped cream for Thanksgiving today. The pumpkin pies are $5.99. The whipped cream is $5.99. With tax (in Manitoba), I would be paying $13.42. Just for pie and a can of whip.
