I'm almost embarrassed to admit that there are certain things that I had in the US that I can't get in Australia, that I have sent over

The biggest thing so far has been after-shower body mist. It's really hard to find, and the only place I've found it has been The Body Shop, which charges about $24 for a small bottle of it.

I used to buy it in the US, bottles 1 1/2 times the size, for 5 for $30!!! So I asked Mom to go pick some up for me and mail them Even with postage it works out cheaper. AND I get the scent that I really want.

Sometimes you can get good deals on clothes here, but Myer and David Jones (the big department stores) tend to be a little pricey. I haven't needed to buy clothes here yet, not anything more than a skirt here or a shirt there at least, but when I do serious clothes shopping I have a feeling I'll be ordering from an online catalogue in the US!
