    Prices though have gone up a lot in the UK so still comparable.
    The one thing going by videos that seems very expensive is olive oil which surprises me considering how much is made there. What would be the average price for a litre of decent quality olive oil in Spain today? Also is it good enough to use as we would virgin olive oil in the UK ie on salads unheated?

    All price rises / differentials are relative wherever one goes.
    Mercadona try to keep their prices competitive by having longer contracts with their suppliers but
    It is still possible to have a cost effective holiday but like Alex is doing right now, showing that no where is "cheap" if that is what you want.
    In the UK , from my last visit, it is vastly more expensive. The thing to be aware of is buying "own" brands they are still cheaper than known brands

    • @MallorcaUnderTheSun
