Things that are cheap in Korea

Taxes - $35 a month
Tylenol Cold - $1.50 a pack
Taxi ride (10 - 15 minutes) - $4
Bus - $0.80
Subway - $0.65
Supper for four people, Korean style - $14
Average grocery shopping trip - $60
Ice cream bars - 3 for $1
Doctors visit - $4
House call for a repairman - $8 (Even if there is no real problem. Emily and I had a repairman come for our stove - apparently there's some sort of safety valve for the gas that is hidden right at eye level. How were we supposed to know?)
Scooter - $300
Movie - $7
Socks - $0.50 a pair

I think that this is where I write...
