In Italian bars, you may find differing prices. Stand at the bar with your coffee or cola and its a low price, sit indoors it becomes medium range, sit outdoors and it becomes top dollar. As ever avoid eating/drinking at the tourist traps, St Marks square in Venice must have slices of gold in its pizza slivers.
Pack a bottle opener, because using a local supermarket will save you an absolute fortune and if you're on an overnight train your couple of beers or bottle of soft drink will be even more expensive from the buffet car.
