Actually, it is quite expensive here. (obviously it also greatly depends what area you live in and how you live) Housing, cars, high-end restaurants are more expensive than in the US. Gadgets are among the few things that aren't, actually. $3 for a great meal that must be on a stall at the night market, not in a restaurant. A bowl of beef noodles will run you $4-5. Easy to pay $100.- per person at a very good restaurant, though $20-30 is probaly average.
Not that I am into getting every new thing or upgrade that comes out, anyway. I have to be able to sneak it past my wife....
