Congrats, may the cheap holidays on the mainland be plentiful.
 
Now random advise starts.
Someone just informed me that I will not be able to work on a spousal visa, no matter what I say they are right and I am wrong. Oh well :ROFL:

You only have to see this forum to know how many experts there are in SA who know everything about emigration without even having had a holiday overseas ;)

Yeah I got back about 2 weeks ago. I couldnt believe quick small shops for cool drinks and snacks were running up like R300

When I left a wimpy mega breakfast was around R65, its R99 now, thats in 2 or so years

On the plus side, had amazing steak at Moo Moo and it was cheaper than a nandos here

Its the beauty of going back.
I plan to go back in Aug to fetch the Mrs and bring her here, and I am giving myself £1k as spending money while I am in SA and that my accomodation is free. I had the same budget for christmas and it still covered the purchasing of some Christmas gifts. This time... no gifts needed.

Was there in February.

R70 for a box of cereal, R39 for 2 litre milk. R25 for a TopDeck. Prices are crazy.

Comparing my last stay in London vs home, I would say grocery prices are fairly similar. Or for the stuff I buy at least. It’s only meat that I felt was still significantly cheaper in SA.

Those prices seem excessive - except maybe the TopDeck, I don't eat those.
