I was absolutely amazed how cheap groceries were, it really has gone 180 degrees from say 10years ago when it was so much cheaper here.

But it never seemed cheap when I was living there...why is that??

I don't know, I guess we sort of become accustomed to prices. It was the same when we moved to QLD 10 odd years ago, we could fill a trolley for $100 now we can carry $100 worth of groceries in a few bags but the change is slow. When I went to the UK last year I still thought things were generally cheaper here but as it turned out they really aren't.
