Greek economic crisis. Are we getting a good deal?

Hi all. Just wanted to get some help and views from people on the forum regarding the current plight in Greece.
My girlfriend and I are going to Kefalonia on holiday in July but we are currently a bit puzzled by the economic crisis in Greece. Due to them having a debt will that effect the prices over there meaning it's more expensive for us to purchase things? Or will it actually be cheaper and we'll get a good deal whilst staying there?
I've heard they may put additional tax on things like petrol and cigarettes, but will they do that in restaurants and tourist attractions too?
Sorry if I'm sounding thick, but just want to understand everything before we go.
Many thanks. Josh
