Daily expenses.

Just compared New World North Island and South Island meat prices.
Beef Porterhouse Steak  NI 34.49 kg  SI 25.99 kg
Pork Loin Chops            NI 19.99 kg  SI 12.49 kg
Skinless Chicken Breast  NI 14.99 kg  SI 12.49 kg

Are people in the North Island wealthier?

I bought a pork leg at Pak & Save South Dunedin this morning - we cut it up and freeze it as meals to braise. $7.89/kg, and it's local pork.
