Of course some things do cost more here. Milk is a little more, although cheese isn't. Bread is less. Meat is less, even when imported. Tinned imports tend to be expensive, though not all that necessary. Anything sweet is expensive, sometimes ridiculously so. Greeks have a sweet tooth and prices reflect this. On the other hand almost any wine, beer or even imported liquor is less. And if you are ambitious you can always pick your own herbs, greens, and even snails, in the fields.
