So true about Osaka people, I went with guy to karaoke, and he bragged that he had his staff discount, a coupon and it was also in the day so it would be super cheap. Then when we paid he didn't offer me the any of the coin change!

Fresh fruit and vegetables are about the same diff between Tokyo and Osaka. Fruit unless it's seasonal is expensive (mikan at the moment is like...250yen for 2kg from the fruit obasan.) vegetables aren't so bad.
You don't really save that much money eating out if you live alone I think, unless you eat instant ramen every day.
