And we get someone who doesn't even live here calling those of us who do a name that some consider deragatory!

The discussion is whether or not someone can afford to live on Oahu. Since most of us like to eat, the cost of groceries is a very real consideration. And no-one even mentioned milk.

Sheesh..guess you didn't get the memo..try perusing the entire thread.
posts 11,12,15,16, and 25..all mention milk.

Oh, and If I might be a 'Gestypo Officer/Grammar Nazi'..you spelled 'derogatory' incorrectly.
Aloha

I think groceries etc are more expensive on the other islands vs Oahu because when it gets shipped in, it goes to Oahu first, then needs to get shipped to the other islands. Extra costs.

I never considered being called a 'Haole' derogatory.... my braddahs 'local' friends on Oahu used to always tell me; 'you one nolo Haole boy.'

This is my old NJ license plate..it had a red and black sticker between '1' and 'Haole.' that said 'nolo'
