Still expensive - $99.50 for a seat at the Ice hockey and $9:50 for a beer. Just as well we're near parity a family night at the New York Rangers was the cost of a couple of sails at US prices - don't want to think about it
you obviously haven't been to Sydney lately. most bars now charge $6.5 to $9.5 for a beer and events such as the big day out go for close to $200 for a single day... never mind the $100 you'll spend to have a few drinks and some food.
The reason why the US seems cheap at the moment (parity or not) is because we are being ripped off left right and centre here in Australia.
BTW, windsurf boards actually seem to be cheaper this season. So it's good to see at least one industry handing on the better dollar rates.
