    I'm attempting to budget for a month long trip to New Zealand and apart from accommodation and the odd internal flight which i know the price off, Im trying to work out how much I'll on the other big two... beer & petrol.

    Can you give me the rough price of a pint in Auckland, Queenstown & Wellington and the general price of petrol as I'll be doing a fair bit of driving.

    I know the question might sound lame but when you work it out social life, going out for beers works out the most on these trips. I've factored in the odd bungee jump and sky dive and reckon with all I want to do ill be coming back a poor man, ah well could be worse could not be going at all!

    2.12 for fuel, it varies a lot though

    $9-9.50 for a pint in the main cities I would guess. I pay $8-8.50 here in New Plymouth anyway

    Yeah the trip I did to the South Island, I never really factored in the social aspect of it which was a big bank drainer for me. Bungies and especially the skydive also didn't help, but worth it :)

    Price of a pint in Wellington for me varied from $4 to $10 depending on the night, where I went or what deals were on. Average price was around $8. Same in Queenstown.
