But yes it has increased by about $100.00 on what it used to be a couple of years ago.

Jack being in a regional location like Ballarat rather than a capital city with less competing stores and likely higher transport costs won't help. Perth and WA suffer a bit too with a lot of goods (probably needlessly) shipped here from the EAST but places like spudshed and Aldi help by providing competition to Coles and Woolies.
Off topic for a sec.

Tremfya - from 70% psoriasis coverage for 20yrs to none in weeks. I eat clean 95% of the time, only drink time to time, exercise 4-5x per week, and get plenty of sun. Tremfya was the only thing that helped after years on poorly managed heavy meds and steroid based oitments and fobbed off by private practices.
