Not sure at what age the children have to pay, but it is 1 ytl for a school child to travel on the dolmus

Dont hold your breath but the 600 kurosa loaf is just around the corner. Take your blinkers off and look what is happening

600 Kurus is 6YTL is that what you mean?

Carrefours near the new Otogar are offering 'normal' bread for 62 kurus, which, if I'm not mistaken, is 17 kurus more than the official government advised cost of 45 kurus. Mind you, it does have it's own little paper bag!!

Don't know what bread has to do with the price of a dolmus , but... Bread went up again last week "official" price is now 65 kurus for a small loaf, however a small loaf is now 300grm and not 250grm as before.
What surprises me is, that as this is the third rise in about a year, why aren't there riots in the street[?]

So that is about 25p for a loaf.........how much do you now pay in the UK?

More, but that was not my point
As bread is a staple, and the price is controlled by the state. An increase from 25 kurus to 65 kurus in the space of just over a year (for an albeit slightly larger loaf) is a hell of a jump.
Turks eat a LOT of bread so I was surprised there has not been more of a reaction from the people.

Out of curiosity I just wanted to know how much a loaf was in the UK now I was not making a point.
