Anyone noticed how expensive they are? Im talking about ya average snickers, twix, mars bar etc...

$2.20 each usually.

Was in a glenfield pharmacy today and at the counter they had an english favourite, the Dime bar. on the packet it said 35p. Chocolate bars in the Uk are all around 30-40p - which equates to about $1.

So why the feck are they sooo expensive here?

If we are talking about snack foods, here is the king. Sadly we dont get pot noodles here (the proper ones). the flavours are so good their market share is 77% in the uk :D
