We're learning all kinds of new slang: breakkie is breakfast, Wellington is Welly, Melbourne is Mellie and Brisbane is Brissie. Runner up is also ran and layaway is layby.
When dealing in cash here, there are no pennies and no nickels. If the last decimal of the price ends with 1-5, it's rounded down and 6-9 it's rounded up. The debit cards here are called EFTPOS cards and if you use one, then the exact price will be debited from your account. Pennies are stupid anyway.
We stopped by the liquor store and they have the greatest beer service in the world. You bring in your own [empty] two liter bottles and they fill them for you straight from the keg. For numerous dollars less than buying it in pre-packaged containers. Genius! I even took a picture, but since we shipped the cord to copy photos from the camera, you'll have to wait to see it.
