Important question: Should there be a difference in charge between peeing and pooping on public toilets? 😂
Is has to be free. Nobody had to pay for peeing or pooping.
Wie habt ihr euch kennengelernt?Könnt ihr das dann bitte auf deutsch hinschreiben
really important question XDDD if that happens, I`ll start over wearing diapers xD
No difference, because it should be zero for both.
who want's to check that?? Not me. So no difference for such a sh...
Die Unfallzahlen im Straßenverkehr in den USA verglichen mit denen in Deutschland sprechen doch eine klare Sprache. Nordamerikaner im allgemeinen sind unglaublich schlechte Autofahrer und das hängt sicherlich auch damit zusammen, dass sie ihren Führerschein sozusagen "geschenkt" kriegen.
Unser System macht durchaus Sinn.
Roger Servas Südamerikaner sind schlimmer die müssen keine praktische Fahrprüfung machen sondern nur die theoretische
Von Asien sollten wir erst gar nicht sprechen 😅
Hab gehört das in Indien der Führerschein auch sehr günstig sein soll 😅
Auch die Gesetze sind viel milder und unsicherer. In einigen Staaten darf man auch sein Handy beim fahren benutzen.
@@MoSchra96 das stimmt einfach nicht
When I lived in Miami, people from the islands would fly in with empty suitcases, go to Target (it’s in South Miami at a metro stop), buy clothes to fill up their suitcases, then fly home. This was really popular on the tax-free weekend in August before school started.
That sounds like a nice trip. I will pack my empty suitcase 😂
you pay for what you get in germany...free health care and great infrastructure and highways.
What do you think? Do you agree? What else do you think is expensive in Germany? Let us know!
I don't know how USA taxes gas, but i don't think it's the same concept as here.
Strohm, GEZ, Erdnussbutter.
"Datenvolumen". It's crazy. And most people think it's normal because they didn't compare with other countries.
I think there is only one explanation: Price fixing...
Deana and Phil, I think to drive with a Taxi is cheaper in the US than in germany.
@@RhabarberPalaver Actually, i dont think so. I am in Las Vegas once a year and Taxi is not cheaper than in Germany.
Useful! Thanks 🙏
When I was learning German as a kid my teacher told me stories about the price differences on name brand jeans. She knew of foreign exchange students or just family vacationing here that would have the sizes of their family/friends so they could buy the jeans here and ship them home.
That's awesome! 😁
I visited Los Angeles in april with my friends and planned a budget for the gas. It was much cheaper than we expected. We were amazed especially because we were driving an SUV
Electronics are cheaper without taxes and without 3 year warranty if you want the same as in Germany you pay way more in the US cause you have to pay extra
What I miss is the Sale in the US bc you get a shirt from hollister for like 3$ instead of 20$ and in Germany sale is like 18€ instead of 20€ 😭😂
I hope that's true. I'll stock up! 😜 (Phil)
my favourite travel couple.you guys are so funny keep up the good work
2am in the morning watching Deana and Phil.... Worth it 😁
That's awesome! Wait 2am? Are you from Australia? =)
@@DeanaandPhil yes I am
Good morning 😂
So...don't watch TV, don't wear clothes, don't drive, and don't pee in Germany. Good to know.
Those are the national rules for saving money! 😂
And don't live in an apartment or in a house :D
Because of the ,,STEUERN" as we say here in Germany ;)
@@twilightprincess994 so wahr😂😂
@Cookiecake :3, dont forget the „RUNDFUNKGEBÜHREN“ 😂
@@RhabarberPalaver ....you should be glad for Rundfunkgebühren - that guarantees at least 10 TV and few radio channels free of advertisments every 20 minutes - in the US you "pay" by having to watch that crap for 7 to 10 minutes until program continues - even the best programs would kill me to watch, with that amonut every 20 - 30 minutes.
Have you noticed the cleaning lady in most public resrooms in germany? Always clean and fresh = € 0.50 cents. It pays her.
In some places these toilet ladies (respectively their employers) make thousands a day this way. They can't keep it.
the cleaning ladies are paid a fixed salary. the money you give goes to the owner off the restrooms.
@@MrsDeviliny
No?
@@simonhaas6480 Yes but it depends.
driving licencse; honestly as expensive it is here in germany, it makes us paying more attention and carefull (the black sheeps and bully's not included). paying less for a license makes u paying less attention to traffic. I bet we have lesser traffic accidents than in america even by having much more dense traffic
At an Austrian train station there is a toilet where the urinal is free and the cabin toilets are 50 cents.
The beer in Germany is better and cheaper than in the United States for example.
American mass produced Beer-Budweiser-Miller High Life-Coors---------Made yesterday-sold today-but Craft Beer Breweries-costlier-but comparable quality.I beg to differ-America has enormous Beer Quality.In Wisconsin-we have a Brewery-New Glarus-its Four Flagship varieties claim it will pass the Reinheitsgebot-the Braumeister was trained in Aying/Bayern-he earned his Certifikat in Bayern !
Guns and Munition are cheaper in germany, because it is here very hard to get a permission for a gun. So not everybody have a gun.
In the USA a gunshop is like a LIDL in germany.
Examples:
Magnum Research desert eagle 50AE Price.
In germany: 2500-3500 Euro
In the USA: 4000< Dollars
Franchi spass 15 12caliber
In germany: 1200-2000€(without Upgrades(scope, 10bulletmagzin))
In the USA: 3000
@@chrischolewa9104 So many comments are generalizations because people don't bother to know the culture before they comment on it. The US has great craft beers and wonderful wineries and distilleries.
@@donsealion you can't buy D50 in Germany. Very limited choices for German gun owne. Must also have Hunting license, gun range license and so on. Really hard to get gun license
That's not a good thing
How clean are the public toilets in the US? I would pay everything to have a clean one during a road trip.
Faith Randon That is exactly what I was thinking 👍🏻
@@arvedludwig3584 Yes, our family trips went through france for almost 10 years during the summer holidays. The toilets are cleaner there than in German free of cost toilets. I've have seen stuff in toilets I could never forget.
>How clean are the public toilets in the US?
Many of them are a DESASTER! We have been in "Madrid" (a smill village in New Mexico, but very well known for tourists) and the public "rest rooms" were HORRIBLY dirty. Shit over shit, My wife fought against not throwing up... (last not least she left the "room" without doing anything....). Its a mess!
yeah but sometimes the German toilets (that you pay for) are not clean as well. but it's true though, they tend to be rather clean when they're paid for.
@@arvedludwig3584 yeah because you pay for using the autobahn, the maut, that's why the toilets are free and really clean
Definitely eating out of home.. Going eat somewhere is something like an event.
A driver license in Germany costs around 2000€ till 5000€
Today, 13 Feb 2020, at a Loves truck stop on the highway near my house, $1.99 a gallon.
I'm actually from India and I was surprised to see that German cars and most electronics are way more expensive in Germany than US and some Asian countries! But groceries are decently priced, say bread, milk, fruits..
And the public toilets, huh, Swiss has 2Euros or 2CHF (McClean, which is always as clean as new) while Paris has it for free, but was way less clean!
Germany is the perfect balance of expensive and affordable, I guess.
McClean? Is that a toilet chain? :D
@@DeanaandPhil Yes, Mc Clean is a public restroom, not huge chain I guess. I used it in Zurich Central station. Same as u told 1Eur and 2Eur...for different purposes!
The auto market in the US is highly competitive. It's much cheaper to buy and own a Mercedes or BMW in the US than over there. People in Germany would rarely choose between a Mercedes and a Lexus, which a US buyer might do. Also, a large chunk of the German car fleet is purchased by the employer as a perk. The entitled employee gets a budget for his company car, but only has to worry about paying for upgrades.
$2.25 gallon here in TN
Cars are also not the same. I drive a Wolfsburg built Golf GTI. They cheapified everything. For example, they swapped the nice LED taillights for cheap halogen or incandescent ones, without rear fog lights. The rest is cheaper too, like the open cup holder (not the one with the lid and the built-in bottle opener), cheap light switch that doesn't turn on the parking lights, etc. Cars are not the same. In the US you also need to add 10+ percent for various taxes, not just the sales tax which differs from county to county.
One of my friends from Germany came over here to the US as an exchange student back in the 80s , and while she was here she took drivers ed at the high school that we both went to in NY and got her license.
I’m in between 2 states with awesome gas prices. Going to South Carolina we always make sure we are full before leaving and same we don’t get more than we need to get over the border a ways to get as much of the cheaper gas.
The gas and electronics in the Netherlands are even more expensive than in Germany
WE currently live in Germany and food is so inexpensive especially produce!
Wow! In Alberta, Canada you can get your learners licence at 14 and a graduated licence at 16.
I’ve heard about clothes and electronics being cheaper when my brother in law’s nephew was visiting from Germany
This is my daily Deana and Phil fix.
I think the difference in price for a driving licence is that different cause in the US depending on where are you living you NEED a car or you cant get anywhere.
Friend of mine was in a 1 year exchange program and when he wanted to go somewhere he needed someone to drive him cause the closest bus stop was an hour away and the bus would drive not that often and not really in those areas where he wanted to go.
My youngest daughter and I both got hardship driver's licenses on our 14th birthday in Arkansas. Last time I renewed my license it was $25 for four years. Same for teens. 16 years is the normal minimum age
Since when are brands like Adidas or Nike „designer clothes“?
Their name brand though
Natural supplements are also like twice as much as they are here in the USA. And that's if you're "allowed" to have access to them.
The price for standard US gasoline is typically for 87 ... yes 87 octane gas. The US uses the Ron rating system, and premium 91 octane here converts to about 95 European octane. 95 is bottom of the barrel in Europe, and some gas stations sell 102 or even higher octanes. In the US, if you can find it, 99 octane sets you back 10 bucks a gallon or more. You're comparing apples to oranges.
Thank you for your videos! You should compare to Brazil, though. Then you’d see what crazy....
mustang 330 mil e eles achando caro o de lá
Car and gas prices in Germany are more expensive in Germany probably because the government wants to promote more environment friendly means of transportation like the bikes and the public transport
Könnten die höheren Preise nicht auch durch die Mehrwertsteuer kommen?
Auch, aber nicht zwingend. Benzin inst in den USA auch deswegen billiger weil die USA einen Großteil des Öls selber fördern was Deutschland mangels ausreichend großer Ölvorkommen nicht kann. Und ob der billige US-Preis so viel besser ist darf angesichts des verschwenderischen Umgangs mit dem Benzin bezweifelt werden. Amerikanische Autos wie der Ford F 150 sind dadurch beispielsweise außerhalb Nordamerikas Nischenprodukte, weil kaum jemand die hohen Betriebskosten bezahlen will.
Naja in den USA wenn da im Laden steht 399$ kommen meist auch noch steuern oben drauf was aber wieder vom Staat selbst abhängt.
BMW has a plant in sc now maybe that's why it's cheaper here. 2nd during corna I could use a paying toilet cause it's so hard to find a bathroom open.
Very interesting video of you two! Keep up the great work :)
Also what I (as a german) found to be very expensive in germany are drugs.
Especially in the area of Stuttgart.
I don't know why in stuttgart but I guess it's due to very eager/efficient police..
😂What kind of drugs are we talking about? ;)
@@DeanaandPhil illegal drugs like cannabis. It is the most expensive in Stuttgart. Drugs from the pharmacy are also expensive but that is all over germany
In Germany, it is also expensive to watch TV and radio, because the fee for GEZ collects to pay costs € 20 a month.
OK-but i pay U.S.$140.00 for TV-Internet/Wi-Fi-complete package ! Its hard to make a comparison this way.BTW-Internet speeds here are slower than in Europe.
It's 17.50€, and if your income is low, you can get exempted.
Chris you talk about pay TV. In Germany you have to pay this Tax even if you have not a television.
Americans a willing to pay for what they call "Cable TV", which are the channels beyond what you get via an antenna. Typically, having cable is $60-80 a month.
GEZ would be the equivalent to your PBS donation. Very few people fund public programming in the US, so it is very limited and local. There are few nationwide news shows on "PBS". They keep up journalistic standards which makes viewers perceive programs as boring. PBS does not compare to ARD/ZDF, BBC or the CBC in that regard. PBS' budget is maybe comparable to KIKA's alone.
Also soweit ich das bisher mitbekommen hab muss man nur an Raststätten auf der Autobahn bezahlen wenn man aufs Klo will, und da hat man theoretisch noch die option an den kleineren Haltestellen zu halten, da sind in der regel auch ein Toilettenhaus. Auf manchen toiletten gibt es zwar die option den reinigungskräften eine art trinkgeld zu geben aber einen zwang zum bezahlen gibt es nicht. Und man kann hierzulande auch normalerweise in jedem Fastfood laden aufs klo. Ich hatte da auf jedenfall noch nie Probleme.
hey phil nice video as always, thumbs up :) is that a go-tcha on your left arm? looks exactly the same (google: go-tcha black edition) r u playing pokemon go? :D
Haha true, looks exactly the same. But it's actually a fitness tracker 😂
But the thing with public toilets in Germany is that at places like McDonalds, you often just 'tip' the cleaner however much you want - there is often no amount of money you really HAVE to pay - but maybe it's different in different parts of Germany
Yeah, sometimes. But I feel like it's getting more and more towards the "you have to pay xx" system.
It's not too pricy for a licence here in Canada, about $200. It takes about 2 to 3 years to get a full license. 3 different classes of one license G1 ( beginners) G2 can drive alone but not on major highways then G full license and the age here for driving is 16. The only time we have to pay extra is if you fail any of the written test, or driving test
The last one surprises me. I live in the Netherlands and Asian foods are widely available and not expensive. I recently saw a bottle of (sweet) soy sauce for just €0,50 and this was actually in a German store in the Netherlands (no, not Aldi or Lidl).
Indonesia used to be a colony of the Netherlands and a lot of Indonesians live here. Their food has been totally integrated into Dutch cooking.
bis vor kurzem war bei uns in der Schweiz das oft anders. In den öffentlichen und überwachten Toiletten war das Urinieren oft frei aber ein Sitzplatz musste berappt werden. (bezahlt)
Heute sind die überwachten Toiletten am Eingang zu ihnen mit einer Schläuse versehen. Alle anderen öffentlichen und nicht an einem Hotspot (z.B. Rastplatz) immernoch gratis.
Tatsächlich gibt es in meiner Stadt wirklich eine timer Toilette ^^ normales urinieren schafft man grade so in 50sek für 1,50€ ^^
Just always go no1 and no2 on the public toilet so this way you have the best Preisleistungsverhältnis 😋
I think ubers are very expensive in Germany too, you pay around 15€ for 5 or 6 kilometers
whaaat you from SC??? NICE BIG UP 803!! nice haha i was there aswell!!! :) YOUR FASTFOOD IS SO GOOD and CHEAP! 3 dollars per menue and u can refill your drinks!! so nice!! CORNBREAD SO GREAT!! SOUTHERN FOOD BEST TASTE!! Howdy yaaa!
Let me add to last message to clarify it. I meant to say you have more choices in America.😊
Deana, if you want to get a german drivers license do you have to go through the whole school process or is it quick to change? In italy, my TX license is not valid anymore and i have to do the whole school/tests/expense thing to get it - it takes forever, is expensive, and is all in italian 😳 lol
if you want to turn your driving license into a german one, you need a translation with a special classification. Thats what i do at my work for the ADAC. If you have to do a test (theoretically and/or pratiacally) depents on from the state your from. I can check that when I'm back in the office
In the Netherlands we import cars from Germany because they are so cheap. A Ford Mustang starts here at a price level above 110.000 Euro.
We, Slovene, go to Austria or Germany to buy electronics. In Slovenia are electronics very expensive.
Zum Glück hab ich euch entdeckt! Mega sympatisch ihr beide😊 Hope you two will get million of viewers one day!!! greetings ✌🏽
Hey, thanks so much for the nice words! =)
I love u guys :) great Video! I need some Gas, i think i have to go to the US xD
Yeah, right? I want those car and gas prices! =)
Little climate Pigs?
In USA you can download the driver licence book from the authorities websites for free.
Having to pay to use the toilet was common in the US about 60 years ago.
No, it wasn't
I guess the way to look at this I lived in Germany long ago to move over there is a big ? 😊 I still think you have move choices you can own a home I wouldn't mind a vacation home in Germany.(Peace )😊 yes I'm part German
I wanted buy a vitamix blender, it is like double the price in Germany😭
Phil, you are a lucky man. Deana is an attractive and interesting young lady. I truly enjoy watching and listening to her. You're okay, also!
If u buy in a shop, it’s more expensive because the companies pay more for workers and on taxes.
It may cost a few coins but the restrooms were always super super clean and smelled good. They may be free in the US by they are not well maintained and are usually super gross. Even at Oktoberfest with millions of people around the restrooms were amazing
Huh buy the components for computer on amazon , i do that for years and clothes = Polenmarkt
With cameras you might have to be careful if you buy them in the US for use in Europe. Videos might show more flickering lights if you use a US model in Europe or vice versa due to them being designed for 50Hz and 60Hz power respectively.
I bought several different brand new Audi vehicles while I was in Germany from 1981-1987. They were a LOT cheaper than comparable models here in the USA.
BMW in America are manufactured in South Carolina.
Drivers license. In Utah. We took Driver's Ed in high school. It went by the part of year you would turn 16. Since school started in August, my birthday was in October. I was in first quarter. You had classroom, and driving portions. You got learners permit at 15, actual license at 16. When done. I went to DMV, took written and driving test. Was done.
The Cars Looks Like the same,but IT isn t .they have different parts Form every Kontinent.
Question: Did you compare the prices with or without taxes? Because US prices are usually given without it, German prices include them. Consequently especially everything which is a larger purchase looks more expensive at the first glance, but once you add the tax, the difference is oft smaller.
(But yeah, gas/petrol is more expensive in Germany because of the environment taxes).
Also, there is a huge difference between the Listenpreis of cars and what you really pay when you buy one. You usually get them cheaper than what they are advertised at.
But in the US they have lots of toll roads, and Germany doesn't. Also the other roads and infrastructure in the US is pretty neglected, I prefer to pay a little more and have infrastructure that is being taken care of.
What to do when I move back over to Germany?! My son wants to get a new XBox One but I'm not sure if one we buy in the states will work in Germany. I know TV's and DVD/Blue ray players need to be for that region, se we have to buy that stuff when we get there. I'll just buy some name brand clothing here before I head over for all of us.
yup the thing with a region lock is still a thing as far as i know but the problem is the US uses 110V and here in germany its 240V ( or something like that) so you would need a different powerbrick or a Transformer or it would fry the electronics.
Yes cameras are cheaper in the US as the retailer markup, which is controlled by the manufacture / distributor in the US allow only about 10% gross for the retailer. Major camera brands are distributed in the US by a division of the manufacture who only cares about keeping the factory running, not the profit of the retailer. German still has several camera stores as they can make money.
The US has trickle pricing. It's 699 for the camera PLUS tax. Okay. That's still a little cheaper. But you get two years full warranty in Germany. In the US you typically get one month, and then maybe the rest of the first year as a "limited" manufacturer's warranty, unless you buy insurance (!), that's so expensive, that you hope shit's gonna break.
My guess is that American's consumption rate often lowers the prices here on some items (but not others) based on how much market competition those products have here (which is why internet is cheaper, but electronics are not). Internet companies tend to have a monopoly on American markets :/
Maybe it's because Europe uses a VAT, while the US taxes are added by individual states and can vary.
Petrol is cheaper in germany comparing with the netherlands here is 1.80 per liter
Teurer hmmm.. Taxi fahren denke ich. Hier kostet ja die anfahrt schon 10 € ^^. In Rumänien z.B kostet ein Taxi so um die 5-10 leu, das ist 1-2 Euro. Wie immer schönes Video, weiter so :D
I know that many years ago color TV sets were incompatible between the US and Europe. Is that still the case?
Yes, google PAL vs NTSC
Every shopping center has free toilets. But if you go to McDonalds you have to know the code first. Yeah to get a driving licence is expensive in CH (around 4000 swiss francs) one lesson costs ca 100 swiss francs. You have to visit courses before the driving test and even after you got your licence (350 swiss francs). If you don't visit these courses in the next 3 years after you got your licence you'll lose it again (and have to do the whole process again).
The reason why prices are high is a matter of the economy of the country and taxes, namely import taxes. Cars and electronic goods are a lot more expensive in Canada than they are in the US. Gas is at least 30 % more expensive in Canada than they are in the US.
Comparing car factories of german brands in the US and vice verca it is no surprise that imported American cars are more expensive in Germany that cars of German brands being build in the US.
You cannot compare announced prices for electronics in Germany compared to the United States. In the U.S. you pay the price as announced plus state tax. In Germany you negociate a price which can be up to 30% lower than the announced price. Germany has abolished resale price maintenance. The same applies to cars. I bought a car in 2012 which was announced at €35.000 and have finally paid €25.000 in cash (wire transfer from bank to bank) after negociation.
And in the US you cant negogiate?
i am from Poland and when i come to germany first time, and see the petrol prizes, i thing i am in heaven
in Poland petrol cost this same but we earned a half pension for this same work ........
And when You say that petrol in Germany is expensive i was suprised XD
Habe euren Kanal vor 3 Tagen entdeckt. Ihr seid so mega sympathisch. Meine Tochter ist 5 und lernt gerade Englisch im Kindergarten. Sie schaut gerade mit mir euer Video und freut sich immer wenn Sie ein Wort versteht 😂
Thanks so much! Say hello to your daughter! =)
Ich finde die beiden auch einfach nur Klasse :)
Die Kinder lernen schon mit 5 Englisch? Das ist ja mal krass 🤯
Ich hab erst mit 8 oder 9 Englisch gelernt und auch nur die einfachsten Basics 😅
Marko Z. Mir geht es so wie dir. Ich hatte Englisch auch erst später. Der Unterricht im Kindergarten ist auch freiwillig und meine Tochter hat total Spaß daran 😊
@@Marko_Z. Und ich erst mit 10. Dafür mit 9 französisch für ein Jahr und danach nie wieder. xD
For car prices there is a difference between European and US cars, even from the same manufacture. In the US you have a lot less options to choose from. Normally there are just 3 packages (basic, sport, luxury) and these include different seats, assistants and entertainment systems. In Germany you can choose every component on your own and the car will be assembled exactly like this. And this type of manufacturing a car is much more expensive than just assemble bulks of the same car. For this reason you have a waiting time up to a year before you can get your car. One can argue, if this configuration system makes sense, but I think this is a cultural thing.
Also the used materials are different. Cars build up for Germany have much better interiour plastic, leather and fabric quality. Even the US cars build up for Europe have better interiours to compete with the local brands. And also the engines are a little bit different because of environmental restrictions and the different speed limits.
So the cars can't be compared directly, but yes prices tend to be lower in the US.
DerAuskennfuchs
Ist das wirklich so? Wusste ich noch gar nicht.
not to forget that the tariff on cars that are imported from the states is 10% while it's only 2.5% tariff for cars that are imported from the EU into the US.
Electronics are even more expensive in Britain! I recently looked at a phone, and Germany was much cheaper.
Before the Amazon boom Mindfactory.de was a popular e-store for PC builders all over Europe because of the lower prices, until they stopped shipping outside Germany/Austria. US prices are lower because state tax is lower than VAT, and it's only applied on purchase (website prices are lower)
I have a mate in Britain and we compared prices n stuff and it comes out its round about the same depending on the exchange.
Im from colombia and about soy sauce , depending the shop they can be very expensive , a normal bottle can cost 3,5 dollars , or even a little more and they are not that big , a smaler one is like 1 dollar but they are not good at all ,and just a little amount of it :/ asian or international food here , very expensive hahaa VERY ,and for public wc they are not really common here and usually you pay for the entry and if you need toilet paper you have to pay more haha .so with the paper included can be 50 cent i guess haha
Hab das mit den Klos mittlerweile schon in einigen Videos gehört, in denen Deutschland mit anderen Ländern verglichen wurde, selbst gesehen hab ich die allerdings noch nie? Bzw nicht in deutschen Städten. An großen Rastplätzen in Grenznähe (Holländische Grenze), ja, aber hier seh ich höchstens mal ne Putzfrau mit nem Tellerchen vor den Toiletten rumhocken, wo man halt bisserl Kleingeld draufwerfen kann (die Betonung liegt auf kann..). Wo befinden sich denn diese Bezahltoiletten idR so?
The american driving license doesnt permit you to drive in germany since a few years.
But the german driving license allows you to drive in alle states that are in the eu
One correction: It is not a driver's licence, it is a driver's permit. Why make the difference? A licence can be purchased. Normally yes, you have to register and so on, but it is not a big hassle. For a permit you have to prove, that you are able to survive the German Autobahn. This is a Big deal.
One of the biggest determinants in prices is protective tariffs. It obviously does not cost twice as much to make gasoline in Europe than in America. Europe chooses to tax gasoline to discourage driving in general, but also to protect its balance of payments, as Europe produces relatively little oil. That oil must be paid for with a hard currency to the producing country. If you buy more goods or commodities from overseas than you sell products to overseas, your balance of payments gets out of whack! The U.S. is presently hemmoraging dollars to China.
well here in stuttgart is 9000 to 11000 euros
Want to talk about gas- and groceries prices?
Whenever we here in the Netherlands get the chance to get gas or buy groceries in Germany we FLOCK to your country, because HALLELOO it's expensive in the Netherlands.
Yeah. Not a cheap but nice country :)
Ja, hoor! I cry everytime I have to buy sun blocker or tooth paste. But still: ik hou van Nederland ;)
The good old days when your German grandparents went to the Netherlands to buy coffee and tobacco.
@@hurtigheinz3790 And now it is the other way around...LOL
Stock up and pay 19% import tax. Good plan.
Yes gas ⛽ expensive in Germany possible reasons taxes, support green energy initiative encourage people ride bikes but at the same time stores are pretty much close together that a lot of Germans walk that's why a lot of nice figured German girls don't tell your girl that I'm telling you this. (Peace)😊
About 40 Cents are tax.
Buy the mustang in the netherlands full options 120.000 euro
Driving costs, gasoline and car prices must be put in another context, though. In America it is almost absolutely necessary to drive anywhere and everywhere, and the physical distances are so much greater. It is not uncommon, especially in the western states, that we must travel a hundred miles per day. So these costs must be kept reasonable. However, in Germany, there is public transportation and the physical distances are very short, so going from place to place is almost doable by walking or biking! Try walking or biking a hundred miles per day in America because there is no public transportation, making it almost a necessity to own and operate your own car. Also, take into consideration that many Americans, especially in the western states, actually have TWO automobiles - a commuter car plus a van or truck to haul kids, passengers or cargo. Personally, I have a commuter car AND a pickup truck.
And for peeing, I found it actually very comforting to pay to pee, because the facilities are always clean and sanitary. The public restrooms in America, in contrast, are dirty, stinky and unsanitary. Sometimes in America, I would rather pay to pee than pee in the stinkholes that are always available to the public. However, I found that in Germany, even if I was willing to pay, the WC's were often few and far between.
Birkenstock much cheaper in Germany then Canada
