Family of four pizza night last week was $107....😳

So hard to wrap my head around. Meanwhile in Singapore, every coffee related drink is an average of $10. Even in SGD, that is $8, which is wild. But even Melbourne coffee is pushing up over $6. (I guess when it comes to commercial rent I can understand why.)

I sometimes wonder when I’ll one day just go, nope. I think it’s because I’m not a big spender in other areas that I kind of justify the cost.

But pizza… I love it, but rarely eat it anymore because even consistency is an issue. The fancy pants pizza is nice, but I’m still always hungry.

Ouchhh. I just paid $25 for a large seafood pizza, which isn't that bad in today's world but isn't gonna be a weekly thing...
