Christmas into New Year’s this does contain some of the just weekly shops things as well so that you can see those prices just throw them all in there for your pleasure you’re welcome and the total of it is going to come up there and that’s how much we spent on food but

That’s not the most important thing let’s put all this away and then we’re going to show you how much we spent on booze it does slightly disappoint me inside if our story has inspired you to move to Australia or you’re in the early stages of moving over and you don’t know

Where to start then you’ll need to find out if you even qualify for a Visa Australia is one of those pesky countries that doesn’t just let anyone in and realistically the whole moving process was probably one of the hardest things that I’ve ever done in my life to

Help you out and plan what you need to do next speak to our friends true blue migration services and when you mention us let them do the hard work of navigating the everchanging Australian Visa system and use their free Visa assessment service so they can tell you

Exactly what you need to do to realize your dreams down under as the only Mara registered Visa company we trust and we’re not the only ones as they have hundreds of fstar Google reviews you can even check them out if you need help falling asleep in fact they’re so slick

That if you decide to use them they’ll pretty much do all of the hard work for you you in securing your visa for you and your family to live their best life so what are you waiting for here starts the booze oh my goodness thing now I

Don’t know why but why is Crown logger a thing in Australia for Christmas time anyway cuz I swear when I went into dance out of all of the beers i’ I’ve never really even drunk this one but this was the one that was hardly any

Left of so it does fall into the hole Chistmas just at Christmas thing I’ve never seen them before so why did you get a massive one what if you don’t like like it well then I’ll just have to grin and bear it but it’s Christmas how much are these the crowns

$54 54 bucks are they bottles or cat or bottles here you go James Squire Ginger beers e for me ginger beer is also my new favorite thing to drink when you get bit waa $79.95 Ginger Beer’s expensive mate if you develop an exclusive ginger beer taste in Australia it’s going to cost

You a little bit just drink beer mate I don’t do beer speaking of beers the all day drinkables Great Northern super crisp Great Northern 5495 with a chance of winning one of 10 10K Aussie Adventures oh didn’t we have this thing thousands of other prizes

Yeah I’m going to do it I remember we did this last year I I remember doing it once and it like couldn’t figure out how to do it and when I opened up the pack I realized the promotion had run out more stuff for you scap goat ciders so low sugar cider 20

95 moving on to some bubbles now this is the bubble that uh and thank God there are six in there this is the one that when Sam and I first came to Australia and we had just got engaged Sam was asking everywhere for free stuff just so that we could celebrate our engagement

And the first place that we stayed at yeah know that we stayed at up in can’s this was the uh bottle of bubbles that they gave us and we thought it was Posh at the time little did we even realize it’s probably one of the cheaper

Ones that you can get but how much is it per bottle or as a six $6.95 .95 each and we got six of those so 4170 now we’re into just general wines and other alcohols A Jacobs Creek Moscato yep 855 a migan black label sparkly shz oh

Yes we got two of them apparently yeah this it’s bloody good um which is a total of 1580 158 the two now the one thing I don’t have in my large alcohol collection to make Long Island Ice teas just in case I don’t get drunk at Christmas some of the

Stuff to make it so Triple Sec has it minused off the off that price already or is that we got to take it off I don’t know it’s 13 3129 and then they took $5.99 off I didn’t even know it was an offer take that thank you dance I’m not

Sure P Noir P Noir Australian PIR do like that one we do like that specific one it’s like a weird blurry face M so three of them uh 570 each 570 1710 for three Cherry Brandy or Jolly Cherry yes I like that little shot of that 2190

Finlay’s is that how you pronounce it finlay’s Bailey’s ripoff Bailey’s ripoff country cream 1739 cuz an actual bottle of Bailey is about 40 bucks now the other ingredient that was missing from my Long Island iced tea recipe cuz I’ve got everything else was tequila and we had to go for

This one because apparently this hat will fit our daughter who is also called Sierra yeah we’re going to keep the bottle for her and it was cheap 53.95 yeah but minus $4 H there’s the other bottle of mcan’s black what else do we have a pink moscato that will

Basically be like juice I think that’s the liter one is it that’s the liter one yeah that’s cheap 680 680 for a liter of that it’s like 6% as well there’s the other bottle P Noir there’s another bottle of sparkling shrs which I can tell you now is the same price as the

Mcgreger black see you Sparkle and shz 790 $790 how do you know cuz it was like the same on the tag that’s why I got it never tried that one I want to expand my horizons oh there’s the other bottle of Peno Noir and what is this one an early

Harvest Linderman’s reasing yes it was recommended so cuz you don’t like them too dry 1270 I know that was the cheapest one I can’t remember the last time we spent over 10 bucks on a bottle of wine in Australia just hope it’s all right well if it isn’t then that’s going

Straight in the bin now you couldn’t have a Christmas in Australia without having some goon but rather than goon wine which you kind of have enough of wine anyway I went for a goon Port an Australian tny how much is 2 L of Port goon $10.99 for 2 lers and it’s got 28

Standard drinks in it wow I think that has got to be price per unit or price per standard drink the cheapest way to get drunk in Australia tell me another way now the total price of all of this stuff which again like the food we’re not going to drink it all on Christmas

Day is that which brings the total cost of all of our Christmas stuff that we spent to that and uh I hope that that has helped inform you what the cost of Christmas is like in Australia and I don’t think it was too bad considering I

Can’t remember the last time we went to Dan’s no this does not make us look like alcoholics that much probably what makes us look more like an alcoholic is when I did the 12 pubs of Christmas and if you want to watch that have a look at that

Video there see you soon bye

  1. Merry Christmas Johnston's. I hope you all have a fantastic day ๐ŸŽ๐Ÿคถ๐ŸŽ…๐ŸŽ„.
    Interesting ~ all of your pantry items are much cheaper than ours here in WA, but all of the dairy and veggies are so much cheaper here lol.

  2. You guys forgot fruits for KIDS ,considering you living in Australia :D, instead of all processed cereals. Anyway, everyone has their one preferences ;). Merry X-Mass

  3. Iโ€™m so glad I donโ€™t spend anything on Christmas. Hoping your family has a wonderful day.

  4. Should go Coopers Pale Ale over Crown Lager. Also a Trifle is delicious in Summer time with the cake drowned in muscat/sherry!

  5. I'm loving the new Blue kitchen, I always leave the protective plastic on as long as possible! Yes, cheap champagne is fine for toasts and after a few drinks nobody complains about it! You certainly are adventurous, fake Bailey's? The cheese platter sounds amazing! Where is the Cranberry sauce? It would be good to see this famous Potato Bake when its cooked!? Have lots of safe fun at Christmas with your family and new friends! ๐Ÿบ๐Ÿฅฎ๐Ÿฅƒ๐Ÿง€๐Ÿท๐ŸŽ‰

  6. Merry chrimbo folks ,
    That made me laugh as a carpenter first thing I noticed is that you still had the protective plastic on your kitchen and then you mentioned it ๐Ÿ˜‚,,
    I'm 3 months in waiting for my partner visa hopefully won't be too long ,, have a good one guys ๐Ÿ‘

  7. Good on ya Mrs Johnston, wives put up with a lotโ€ฆyou are a trooper! No guesses who does all the work to prepare Christmas dinner!!!

  8. Regarding potato bake. You want a good cheat? Use Wedges instead of potatoes, than bacon, brown onion, cheese n thickened cream. Done.

  9. As an Australian watching this with my teenager two things jumped out at us:

    1. You poor darlings, no proper turkey, no decent ham leg, no t-bone? No pavlova? Trifle? Nothing to make big salads? Mangos? Cherries? Pawpaw? My kids would riot lol – felt a bit sorry for yous – Seems a bit scant ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

    2. You guys out drink any Australian family we know ๐Ÿ˜‚ lol Congratulations – great drink haul but sad food haul ๐Ÿ˜‚

    Have a lovely happy safe Chrissy ๐ŸŒน

  10. Loved the video Ross,its your choice of course,but we would have a real turkey,not one out of a box,too many processed ingredients in it.I thought considering,the price of the food wasn't too bad.Loved your drinks haul prices as well.Considering how much booze you got,i thought it was cheap.As for Cherry Brandy,i like that one as well,i used to have the DeKyper one in the UK. Thankyou for this interesting video. From Hazel in the UK.
