    I wouldn't know what it is now, but it was just under $200 about 10 years ago, and just under $300 5 years ago, although I heard of someone else borrowing $400 for one in about 2005 (sorry, sketchy details, based on friend of a friend type stuff)

    It's possible. But the tongue ring, that is bad form. No wonder you are p'd off. I would tell your nan. Because I'm a cold-hearted bad sister. (I have dobbed in my sis for doing something similar)

    It depends where he lives. Up here, you can be looking at $400 + depending on where you go, it's cheaper if you go south. Around $300 I believe in Brissy.

    Also, random but true, if you live in vic and have a healthcare card, and even sometimes a student card, you can get a discount...and certain days can be cheaper too...

    Is there a medicare rebate for it as well because he should be able to go to medicare and get the rebate so he can pay back your Nan ASAP ... I don't know much about it but I know that lots of medical procedures, even elective and contraversial ones (like circumcision) have a rebate.

    I would be annoyed about the tongue ring too if he is borrowing money. Some places that do body piercing take money when you book though (I imagine they would lose a lot of money from people deciding not to otherwise) and he may have already had it booked and paid for before he knew that his gf was pg.

    A friend of mine had one here in Newcastle last year and it cost her $350. I was her support person for it and I was shocked at the price.
