well everything does go up and $ 5.67 for a good quality t shirt doesn't seem like a lot. Depends on the size you buy and where you buy it I'm still getting them for approx 40-45,000 for 3XL at fixed price shops in Sindu market Sanur.
Yes petrol has gone up the recent Hike price of electricity has gone up my some 30% compared to last year, so hotels,villas are charging more, drivers on the street have increased their rates, some vegtables and fruits like peppers and chillies gave gone up due to the rain during dry season this year.
But look whats happening over the world, people are out of work, some states in Australia are loosing their homes,due to bank charges, we are still pretty lucky here as Aus dollar is strong and should be happy with the small rises in price remember some 7-8 years ago when our dollar was only getting 5,600 per $.
sorry not being tuff ( I wanted to use the word B*tching but admin not let me) but yes prices have gone up
