Is €100 enough for grocery per month? 🙂
Lidl is like scanning a whole trunk of a car in three minutes and afterwards constantly staring at you for taking so long to pack. Like directly telling you "if you'd pack faster it'll be more money for us"
Благодаря за видеото. В България, където минималната заплата е около 500 евро, а средната 700, цените са подобни както в Германия.
Much cheaper than Canada
Hey Jessica, you can even save a little more if you want. Some grocery stores have their "own" brands that they have manufactured as NoName from the big brands. You can buy a Bauer yogurt for about 90 or 99 cents. Or you can buy a "Rewe Beste Wahl" = Rewe Best Joice yogurt. By the manufacturer code you can see that both yogurts come from the same factory. Only the ingredients sometimes differ a bit. For example, the cheaper version has a little more sugar and less fruit. And the cheaper yogurt costs almost half, around 55 cents. And the best thing: at our Rewe they are next to each other. So there are many more "brands" from other areas, where it runs similarly… 😉
Not everything is closed on sundays, just shops.
When I lived in Berlin I found grocery shopping excellent value for money. Later I moved to Milan, and my God do they rip off Italians. Despite wages being lower in Italy shopping is considerably more expensive.
This is so cheap compared to Norway😂
This is so cheap compared to New Zealand. It's been already more expensive in NZ 4 years ago before the inflation. I can't wait to be back in Germany (home) for a visit ❤❤
300€ a month is enough for a single person?
Thanks for sharing. Have you come and done the shopping at one of the grocery stores in Bangkok, Thailand yet?
Groceries are super inexpensive in Germany, especially in comparison to Canada. I spend a month every year there and my favourite thing to do is to go to the groceries stores and see what I can buy. Oh and yes best make sure you load your groceries quickly into your cart because the people behind get impatient. It is like being on beat the clock
Hey Jessica 😀, your channel is brilliant. I love travelling the world 🌎 and vlogging. Wish I could leave EVERYTHING and travel as you are doing…but I haven't cracked it yet. Right now, I fit travel around work. I love your vlogs and will be ardently following them to learn and enjoy. Much love from a Zimbabwean 🇿🇼 travel vlogger in the UK 🇬🇧
Those Nutella biscuits are €2.99 tax included and at Bottega they're $8+ tax (I know location and import is different just amazed at the price difference)
