BBC NEWS | World | Europe | Italy's dolce vita turns sour
A BBC article on how much prices have gone up since the euro came in... something everyone living in Italy knew a week after the shiny new coins appeared for the first time. It's only Mr Berlusconi who doesn't seem to have noticed the price rises.
When I first started coming to Italy the idea of credit cards and 'Buy now pay later' credit was unheard of. Now it's everywhere. Without a doubt there will be tears before bedtime.
