The Cost of Living in America

Those tropical fruit items that cost a few thousand Rupiahs in Indonesia are quite a bit more expensive in America. You can find pineapples, coconuts and mangoes at most grocery stores, but you pay a big price for them. Pineapples cost $3.99, the equivalent of 35,000 Rupiahs. When they go on sale, the price is $2.99. And none are as ripe as the ones at the traditional market!
