Tahiti can be as affordable as you want it to be. Like any other country, you have a choice of what you purchase, and at what price. The reason for some of the prices being slightly higher in Tahiti is due to the fact that no income tax is payable by local residents, and thus goods and services are taxed accordingly. Being islands, with a very high standard of lifestyle, Tahiti has to import much of its requirements from all over the world.

Below, you'll find a price list for various products. These have been taken from a wide range of various suppliers, and are indicative of price only :
