The Shopping List
I am flying to the U.S. in less than two weeks, so I am preparing a shopping list.

Despite the depressing exchange rate, there are still plenty of things that are far cheaper or only available back in the States.

Miss Thing is flying back in a couple of weeks and I will have a list for her as well. Aside from the usual Reese's and assorted foodstuff, I'm including Hanes socks for all the family. I can't get over how expensive socks are. Also various toiletries from WalMart.
Have you checked the BCC library for Grisham books? I buy very few books here either as they are expensive, so I rely on the library, eBay and second hand bookstores.
Hey, they have Reese's at the lolly shop at UQ! And they are priced fairly reasonably.
I'll check the library for books...especially if we are to ever save some $$ for a house.
