As I said before, its all about how and where you live.  Biggest expensive as Angie says is heating in the winter.  Electrical goods I do get from Amazon and shoes and clothes can be bought on-line....M&S only charged £5 for one or several items to be sent here last Christmas so if you search you may find cheaper....

Sorry Tinker, re: cost of living... depends on all sorts, importantly, where and how you live...  Yes fuel is expensive here (same uk), iatlian eqivalent of council tax is now nil, and if you use markets and shops like Lidls for food-stuff you will save a packet compared to other supermarket chains...just buy 'choice'  things there.....and the sun does shine here alot more than back home.......Easy choice....
