MONEY BASKET

Mon, 26 Jun 1995 Source: --

As part of its commitment to keep Ghanaians abroad well and truly informed about events at home, Ghana Review, will periodically be publishing the prices of goods and services in Ghana under the title "MONEY BASKET". It is hoped that this service will give Ghanaians abroad some idea about life back home.

MONEY BASKET [Prices quoted are obtained from GR's researchers and some from the Statesman's column "Market Trends"]. This week's focus is on drinks, albeit we don't wish you to be alcoholics. We move to other goods in subsequent editions. So bear with us, Rev. Born Agains!
