I just went to the gas station this morning and for once actually looked at the prices and saw that for regular it was 1.89 per gallon, 1.99 for super, and 2.07 for super plus! I know I'll end up at the grocery store tomorrow night so I'll have to print out the list and give you an update on the other items Thursday night. We live in the metro Detroit area - so I guess you would consider that a city area. Good luck to you DD!

Gallon of milk $2.79

Loaf of bread $2.19

Dozen eggs $1.39

Lb. of hamburger $1.57

Would your Dd like the prices of these items in the UK, or are her class just comparing prices in the different States. Mind you I guess that it's easy to come up with prices for the UK, just double all your prices and then you'll have a rough estimate!

 

[kaylajr]

catherine- prices from the UK would be great
i didn't even think of that but she said

and i quote " that would be awesome no one else will have those"

so thank you

and thanks to all who are helping

i knew i could count on you guys

Glad I can help out! I'll check the prices out tomorrow when I go do the shopping. I presume that you want the prices in $'s and not £'s

 

[Baileymouse]

1 gallon of regular unleaded gas: 1.77 for regular

a gallon of whole milk - 2.99

a loaf of plain white bread - 1.29

a dozen eggs 1.89

and 1 lb of hamburger 3.99 (ouch)!

Went to Stop & Shop this AM.
We're in Bayonne, NJ - very urban, right next to NY.

 

[tkd lisa]

We live in Southern Maryland. It's considered rural.

1 gallon of regular unleaded gas - $1.78 at the cheap places, $1.89 or so at the pricier ones.

a gallon of whole milk - $1.99

a loaf of plain white bread - For brand name, $1.29, for discount breads, $.89

a dozen eggs - $1.49

and 1 lb of hamburger - I'm guessing you mean just regular hamburger, that's probably $2.39 regularly. The good stuff goes on sale for $1.99, usually around $2.99. That's something I never buy unless it's on sale.

I live in the Northwest area of England, in a town that is located roughly between Manchester and Liverpool. Below are the prices for the items in this area. I guess that the prices would change slightly depending on the exchange rate.

1 gallon of regular unleaded gas $5.21

a gallon of whole milk $3.47

a loaf of plain white bread $1.45

a dozen eggs $2.50

and 1 lb of hamburger $2.50

It's unbelievable how much more we have to pay for petrol (gas) over here!


Good luck to your DD. Hope that she gets lots of good information!
