- Traveling makes you realize and appreciate things from your home country! Traveling back to Germany we realized that some things are cheaper in Germany compared to the other countries we've traveled to. We definitely find ourselves comparing a lot to prices in Germany and the USA. Here are 7 things we found that are surprisingly cheap in Germany!

Do you agree? What else do you think is cheap in Germany?
I was really surprised when I moved to Germany from Canada that toiletries were so much cheaper than in Canada! A welcomed surprise!
I know what's not cheap

“I really like Corona” ... these days it’s not the beer 😂
But a fake virus
Bruh
Fun fact of the day: by law in Germany, there must be at least 1 non alcoholic Drink on the menu that is cheaper then the cheapest alcoholic drink, this needs to be calculated per 1 Liter. Paragraph 6 des Gaststätten Gesetz or also know as the Apfelsaftparagraph
Gastronomie spricht :D habe es mir auch gedacht :D
Ja stimmt, das wurde doch mal in den 90ern irgendwann eingeführt
Ich war gestern wieder mal im Wirtshaus. Eine 0,4L Cola war gleich teuer wie 0,5L Bier.
@@menju32 Then at least 0.5 l mineral water (or another alc-free drink) MUST be cheaper than 0.5 l beer or you can report the restaurant to the authorities and they have to pay a high fine.
Ja, habe ich auch gehört und war dann auf einem Fußballspiel bei dem 0,2l Wasser so teuer war wie 0,5l Bier 🙄
Ja gut in Deutschland ist Alkohol irgendwie Grundnahrungsmittel 😅
Prost! 😂
7 Bier is auch ein Schmier :-)
beer is liquid bread :-)
many years ago, they made some law that at least one non-alcoholic drink in restaurants has to be cheaper than the cheapest alcoholic drink. but I'm not sure whether that still applies when they sell 0.2 l of cola and 0.3 l of beer for almost the same price :-) :-(

Great.. now ill need to go get Döner.. the struggle of living above a Döner shop is real
You know that "Döner" is called kebab or?
@@ghostreal a) it's not the same thing
b) The one thing I know for certain is that you're German. Your use of German grammar and word order in an English sentence is as characteristic as it is hilarious.
*micdrop*
@@alexaudiovisuals Sorry, that i put 1 "s" too much my Lord, I hope that you delete yourself. And now tell me, where is "Kebab" and "Döner" not the same thing? idiot.
@@ghostreal the word kebab is the word for the meat that is used. döner means "twisting" and is the word for the whole arrangement in a bread and the veggies and so on.
so that means if you have kebab meat not from a spinning grill it is not a döner. but anyway ,some say the döner kebab is invented in germany like we know it but most people are thinking about something turkish.
who knoes exactly, get da döner. everybody is a diva if he is hungry.
@@ghostreal das "or?" am Ende killt alles😂
I think it's crazy when americans are surprised with the drinking age but you can drive a car with little practice at such a young age
Blindsidehit TV it honestly depends on the state. Like you’re supposed to log a certain number of hours practicing with a guardian before you get your license. But I went through 6 months of private lessons bc my mom is very cautious (thank the lord). But in most states you go through like a month of mandatory hour long classes with driving with the instructor and your parents. But if we can join the military at 18 - 17 with parental approval- we should be allowed to rent a car or buy alcohol.
Blindsidehit TV there’s a huge difference between driving in the US than in germany tho... It’s a lot more chill over there because everyone keeps a bigger distance from other cars and because they have speedlimits :)
@@katelyndodge2762 I have to agree with Blindsidehit TV. Maybe you have a long time of training lessons but this is not the status quo in the USA, or? Let me tell you about Germany. We had a couple of lessons with a driving teacher from a driving school. There is no teaching in normal school for us. And no matter how good you are, You had to go to 12 theory lessons which costs approx between 100 and 200 Euro. (all in all) Then you have to do a theory test that costs €50. If you passed that test, you can go to the praxis lessons. And here as well... No matter how good you are, you need a minimum of 14 normal driving lessons and definitely 4 lessons on a highway, 4 lessons at night and 4 lessons at Federal road. A normal lesson coast about 25 - 40 €. The "special" lessons cost more like €50. Then comes the praxis test, that costs all in all about €150 and a fee of €50 that they print/give you your driver license.
So in Germany it's realistic for a driver to take half a year and cost about 1500-1600 € (only if you pass the tests at the first time! If not, you pay the test costs a second time and in praxis, you have to take two more lessons before you can do the test again)
That's the reason why Germans think it's not good that US teens can drive cars in that young age with so less praxis. (And maybe they are a bit jealous about the price)
@@josieringhand8762 We have speed limits in German too XD
50 km/h in towns and 100 km/h on Federal roads. Only our Highway "thing" is a bit difficult to understand. We have the recommended speed of 130 km/h there. If it's empty and you have enough space, you can drive faster. But if you have an accident because of it, all the guilt is on you. No insurance will pay and everything you break/destroyed, you pay for and everyone you hurt, you have to pay for all his costs. (for a live time if it needs) Because our Law says, you can only drive without a speed limit, if it's possible. If you had an accident it wasn't possible!
Döner Kebab a snack?
I had once one with extra meat and extra cheese. I put it on a scale at home, it was over 650g.
This are 3 BigMacs.
well it is called having a lot of meat and salad on a döner. And i think he is calling it snack because it is the biggest drunk food/snack in germany. like wandering around at 5am drunk and hungry as hell, thats why you grab a döner and go home to sleep.
a normal Döner is about 300g and should have a good amount of Salad in it.
It's better to grab a street Döner than any Burger or fries at McD's.
@@CrowdBabyZ thats a small one, a Döner is 400g and it's a felony to not say "mit Alles"
Ich habe in den USA (SC) vor ein paar Jahren eine Uni besucht und bin schier umgefallen, als ich die Preise für deren Bücher gesehen hab. $200 für ein Buch und $130 fürs ausleihen. Da sind die Fachbücher in Deutschland deutlich günstiger und man findet eigentlich alles was man braucht kostenlos in der Bib.
Wieder mal ein cooles Video 😍
stimmt, bisher muss ich noch nie ein Buch kaufen (also, außer das HGB :D), alle Literaturen findet man in der Bib. in Papierform oder als pdf. zum Downloaden kostenlos.
Ich musste für mein Studium ein Buch kaufen. Ich hab für ein gebrauchtes Exemplar 150€ bezahlt. Neu gibt es die gar nicht mehr.
Apfelkorn, schmackhaft!
Aber nicht vergessen... Das Trinken von Alkohol (Bier/ Wein) unter Aufsicht eines Erziehungsberächtigten ist schon mit 14 Jahren erlaubt. Nur eben das kaufen dieser Alkoholika ist erst ab 16 Jahren möglich.
Du kommst zwar schon mit 14 in Begleitung einer Aufsichtsperson in eine Kneipe oder Bar rein, aber darfst da kein Alkohol trinken!
@@Kessina1989 Diese Erlaubnis gilt ja auch nur im privaten Bereich. Also zu Hause oder bei einer Familienfeier. Kellner bzw. Gaststätten könnten sich sogar strafbar machen, wenn sie Alkohol an Jugendlichen ausschänken, die es noch nicht in der Öffentlichenkeit trinken dürfen.
@@BABO_Offiziell Well Jo - offiziel vl. Ich hab als ich 14 war mir öfter mal ein Radler bestellt - in Anwesenheit meiner Eltern und es gab nie ein Problem. Die Art und Weise ist bestimmt sicherer, als wenn man sich rausschleicht um Alkohol zu probieren
@@BABO_Offiziell in America if a parent let's kids under 21 have alcohol they go to jail. Saw it 2 weeks ago in a danish cop show. This danish guy is a cop in America and you saw him talking about arresting a mom for letting teens drink at her house. So she got busted..
@@ebbhead20 That's the reason why the USA are stupid. Every 12 years old kid can shoot with a gun. But if a 20 years old man (or women) drink a beer. Then he (or she) could get busted.
Just found your videos and very much enjoy them. Subscribed. Was surprised at the low cost of alcohol in your country, the education costs, and cost of food. We now have not only an Aldi but also a Lidl store nearby. Love both the stores. Keep up the good work!
Speaking of books: The books you need for studying are also very cheap in Germany. In the US you can pay three digits sums for one book on university level. On the flip side, books for fun tend to be more expensive in Germany. (That's because of the Festpreisbindung for books). So costs for study material is also very affordable in Germany.
yeah, it's crazy what kind of debt you can accumulate in the US during a couple years of studying...
i dont 2nd that. "Sachbücher" or books about specific topics are super expensive to buy in germany. on the other hand i didnt have to buy any books in university in germany. most of the stuff is in the library, E-library or just inside the script of the professor.
Most of it is, but there are a few exceptions. Sometimes because the professors wrote said books themselves, but usually because they cover the basics you should know and might have to look up at one point. What is your definition of super expensive? I never paid for any book in the three digits area, not even CLOSE to it.
as a student you have free access to the basic books through your library, can order specific books through the library and can get online access to most scientific journals as well as a lot of e-versions of books.
If the service is "under all pig", I won't give any tip.
exactly! 😂
Your English is "onewallfree"
Thx XDD and your English is "not from bad parents"
yoyo-ka thx bro I "kiss your eyes"😂
Your English makes "my hair stand to mountain" and I "break together" from laughing.
Can't get enuff of you, such a fun couple and entertaining videos! The comic hand puppets are adorbs too!! Keep doing these!!
Thanks a lot! :)
Great video! We are very blessed to have education basically for free in Germany. There are still some fees like for service charge and for the ticket for public transportation but It's around 300 € per semester as far as I remember/know. :)
Wow, jetzt liege ich um 3 Uhr im Bett und habe Lust auf nen Döner.. 😅
Ich auch!
Dollar Trees in the US sells candy, chocolate, shampoo, toiletry and everything you mentioned for $1 each. Also beer, liquor and wine if you shop around you can find it fairly cheap.
Aldi and Netto store is my favourite... greetings from Aachen, Nice video!
education is free in most of europe. Here in denmark we get payed to study.
We too. Normal teens can get max. 450€ per month if they still live with their parents and I think 780€ if they live alone
Also we can get monthly interest free government loans, that people usually only have to pay 50% back after graduating and finding a job.
Wow. Why is it like that? I'm from Philippines and I study in a State University which is the most populated University here in my country. Students here keep on studying to prove themselves that they are good and it'll change their lives if they graduated with flying colors so they pressure themselves just to wear that invisible “bright student” medal. Education is highly valued here but it'll also cost you a lot.
Ich finde euch beiden einfach klasse. Mehr davon bitte.
Spartanburg South Carolina here (born in Stuttgart and raised is Göppingen)....health care and public transportation is cheaper in Germany. Miss it so much.
I am so happy I found your channel!
We are happy you found our channel too! 🤗💜
Seitdem ich in Südamerika lebe, bemerke ich wie billig Europa eigentlich ist😂
I didn't know either until I left! Is Ecuador expensive in general?
Deana and Phil Yeah especially the clothes! And the Quality isn’t the best either....
@@Reaper-cl2vp Brazil and Argentina were more expensive than Germany, unless you buy sth at a local market.
ist es einfach nur billiger in der EU oder ist es preiswerter?
@@ThorstenGowik Na denk mal nach, praktisch Alles ist besser/strenger reguliert und wird höherwertig produziert. Wenn es dann auch noch weniger kostet ...
Deana und Phil finde eure Videos cool 🙂🙂🙂👌
thanks a lot! You were fast to watch today 😬✌
4:50 That is so extremely important. Should be everywhere in the world!
I just honestly love your channel and video. You two are so adorable and I swear if you ever choose to have children they’d be so cute and intelligent like their parents.
You two are always making me hungry . You talk about food all of the time.
Nice video, dudes! :)
Aldi wine is the best! It's crazy how cheep things are at Aldi. Plus, if chocolate is cheap in Germany, that's exactly where I'm going, since I'm a chocolate addict!
It can really pretty good. Sometimes you can catch restaurant owners buying larger amounts
It really is and not just the chocolate! I still can't believe, since I've been back in the states, that the candy and chocolate cost so much. We're lucky to find a sale of 2 for 3 dollars now.
And I thought our groceries were expensive😂 you opened my eyes ✌🏼😂
There is also (a bit) more expensive chocolate, but usually it is woth it. Try ""Schwarze Herrenschokolade", "Scho-Ka-Kola" (contains coffee and cola-nut) and, really expensive, Lindt "Edelbitter Mousse Schwarze Johannisbeere" (blackcurrant, Swiss manufacturer ) . But be careful with Lindor Dark 60% balls, they are almost addictive. ;-)
You guys rock. Brings me back to going to Sachsenhausen and learning "greek" food where the guy literally shaved it in front of me. Best "fast" food ever, that.
Yeah, when I retire my happy butt is going to Hanau.
In Sweden we don’t tip at all. Since we all use cards here it’s always to the krona.
To pay cash is part of freedom. No paternalism and control by others. I won't hope the swedish model will come here.
I remember that in Germany at the bottom of the menu it said that a percentage for service and gratuity is included in the price.
Bakery items are a great deal in Germany 🇩🇪 and delicious too!!!
I know I am late to the party, but great video! I love watching your comparisons of day to day life in the States versus Germany! Can I make a suggestion? Can you do a video on college experience in the States versus Germany? If you've already done one I apologize. The point about college being cheaper in Germany got me thinking. Like in Germany is there as much partying in college as we have in the US? How about greek life or clubs or sports? Love to hear your take!
#DönerKebab 👍😁
And do not forget the #Preisleistungsverhältnis ☝️😂
I really enjoy your videos, great job! 😊
When I come to Germany, a pit stop at local Middle-Eastern restaurant is a necessity - kebab, shoarma, also that pizza-like pie (I don`t remember the name) with goat cheese - delicious, cheap and you can find it even in small towns (I remember great Arabic Bar in Adenau in Eifel Mountains).
Love ur videos u guys rock
We have tuition cost of about 300€ a semester, but it's only the price of the train ticket for all of Lower saxony/bremen and hamburg plus some additional services, the uni itself is basically free
Very interesting facts about US pricing. Didn't even guess that mobile and internet is so expensive in the US.
Uea it is sadly....even for everyday things such as jeans cost around 15 to even 35 US dollars. Shirts and others are even more. Milk is very expensive and landowners always rack up the rent the longer you stay here. Honestly, America is the worst. Thats why when I'm 18, I'm moving to a place like Germany
Or even Germany itself
Eunjin Jung Dont forget that gas and current is very very expensive here.
Germany for sure is on the more expensive side in Europe! I pay 3 Eur / month for unlimited calls amd texts plus 1 GB.
In Germany you have always pay an administration fee (that includes a ticket for public transport) per semester, but it is mostly just around 200-400 Euros. There was some kind of tuition if you exceed the so called "Regelstudienzeit", which is the regular number of semesters it should take to graduate.
I have this slightly feeling, that the most people who are watching these videos are from Germany, me too btw 😂
From england.
I’m moving there soon
To Berlin with my mum :)
From the USA but i love Germany. Father's grandparents were from Bavaria ( many differnt towns ) back to 1600. I have the Family Tree. If i was alone with no family i would live there.
USA
Ur proud of being cringe?
Things that are surprisingly expensive in Germany?:
Gasoline
Mobile contract
Energy at all
Internet
In my few trips to Germany, I found that renting a car is cheaper than in the USA, and hotels in the outback, away from the tourist traps, are also cheaper than in the USA.
In german Universities you don't need to pay teaching fees but insurance fees. Mostly about 200 to 300 € per semester. But it is surely different in private schools or universities.
...and in Baden Württemberg e.g. books in school are also for free you get it from school each grade and give it back at the end of the year so the next guy can use it ;)
My university has a fee of 250-300€ per semester, but most of it covers the ticket for public transportation in the whole state, so if you don't use that it's quite expensive but a lot of students don't live near campus or even in another town so we normally use it
and now i'm watching this and i was shook when you said corona LOL
I don't know when you lived in Charleston, but you can get fiberoptic internet here now for like $50 a month.
Then: I like Corona
Ok
Now: I like Corona
WTF
It all depends on whether you're thinking in the current currency. I went to Greece last year and when you think in Euros it's cheap or affordable but then when you covert it it's about the same in CAD or more. It's kind of bittersweet depending on how you look at it.
Well done 👍
Really enjoy your videos. I am from Canada and I have relatives in the Hamburg area and in Austria in the Salzburg area. We have traveled in Europe 3 times in the past 10 years. I do have to say Germany is by far the cheapest place to travel in. The food, the accommodations and just buying "stuff" seems much cheaper than other countries. We hope to travel at least one more time but time and the Covid 19 virus will tell. Thank you and keep up the good work
Can you guys talk about wages or salary for different occupations in Germany vs US? I love how informative your videos are!
Could you take a video talking about how you met? That would be great :D
there is a video how they METT already :D
Oh really, what's the title?
6:35 In restaurants etc. it is required that the cheapest of all drinks is non-alcoholic
Ohman immer wenn ich eure Videos sehe wünschte ich mir das ich englisch könnte😂 aber ich muss schon sagen das es mir hilft Eure Videos zu sehen 👍🏻
Tipping is not normally done in Australia, some places allow tipping but it's not expected.
However, wages are high enough that the staff do not get any wage remuneration from tips.
I am Indonesian living in Japan now. In general tipping is not common at all in both Indonesia and Japan. It’s almost offensive here in Japan also to tip. I feel weird even just to think about it 😬
Btw I love your vids!
How much a an orange or Mellon in Japan? I heard they're like 50 dollars, is that right?
Döner Kebab... go to Texas to a Mexican food truck and order a Desberada Torta with all the fixings. Probably around $4 or so.
Super filling and tasty!
I just got back from San Diego, and tried a burrito at Chipotle for the first time. With a drink, it was a shocking ~$12 and not nearly as tasty or healthy as a $5.00 döner kebab.
i don't think chipotle all that great manly hype
@@charlesheineke6035 Yeah, just another fast food chain pretending to be something more - very unhealthy stuff.
We pay 💰 around 160€(fees, Metro tickets) a semester for our daughter who goes to LMU in Munich. We also got lucky and only pay 250 a month for her room but that’s outside of Munich.
in Portugal *some* people tip only to round up the value, if something costs between XX5 and XX0 then some people round it up (example, 27 goes to 30) but, if something costs less than XX5 (so 23 for example) hardly anyone rounds it up. And I believe the majority of the people don't tip at all
university: it may vary depending on where you study, but eg in Berlin it was below 600€ per semester, roughly half of which was for a "Semesterticket", the rest for "student's social affairs organization" (less during the first semesters, more if you study for many many years) who also had negotiated costs for the "Semesterticket" (free public transport for the entire 6 months) by forcing it on everybody so that prices could be lower than the normal subscription to the public transport. all the rest (finding it and paying for it) is left to students, eg housing, food ("Mensa" = midday lunch in the university is subsidised), books and similar (big university library is free, even with lots of copies of important books), etc.
TLDR: the education is essentially free (payed by taxes), but does not include any "normal" costs of living or materials for studying (from pens to specific books)
The semester tickets are super cheap compared to the market cost of monthly tickets. Details vary between universities though depending on the contracts they make. Some are very local, while others allow you travel in a whole state I think
You have to pay per semester 150-500€ for your driving ticket and some small stuff
Es gibt semestergebüren, da ist dann auch ein Semesterticket, für die öffentlichen Verkehrsmittel drin, kostet so ca 300 €
$10 for a 🌮 from a food truck, maybe in Charlotte. Come to L.A. , you can get two Carne asada street tacos from any food truck for $2.50, Chipotle is ala carte that's why it's so expensive. To cut costa on toiletries, go to Bed Bath and Beyond, a name brand and Face Values brand (BBB"s generic brand) is typically $2-$3 less For a regular tube of toothpaste or a bottle of body wash than buying anything at CVS where everything is jacked up price wise. BBB tip, use the BBB coupons whether they're expired or not, if they are expired, the store will still honor them. Use the $10 off purchases of $15 or more on essentials like oral hygiene products, cosmetics, personal care products. And combine the $10 off coupons with the 20% off one item coupons to get maximum savings. the 20% off one single item coupons are vest when getting big ticket items like comforter sets, cookware, small kitchen appliances than on a tube of Colgate or a bottle of liquid foundation
„i really like corona“ yeah mate i don’t think so
I remember buying beer racks when I was about 12, this was in the late 70's.
I think in Germany you normaly tip the service staff with around 10% of your total amount, if the service was good ;p
@xellossaxon you're right as there is no required percentage for your tip, but I'd considder it rude not tipping about 5% to 10% if you were happy with the service.
Calzones! They're good and filling and if you're a phone call away from pre-ordering you can pick up one and run off with it.
It depends on where u live in Kanada(Canada) on how much u tip plus on the service u get. I normally tip 15% to 20% of the total bill
In Turkey there is no tip at all. It is just an option for fancy restaurants or hotels but depends on the customers...
Love Ritter's Sport. Sometimes find it in Australia. Love Lindt too
Ich studiere in Bonn und muss da pro Semester glaube ich 290€ an die Uni zahlen darin ist aber auch das Studententicket enthalten womit ich alles außer IC und ICE in NRW fahren kann :)
I don't know if my family and I are cheap, when it comes to tipping, because we were very conscious of our expenses, but when my father buys something for I don't know 37,55€, he'd round it up to either 38 or 39 euros.
I personally like to tip more, if the service is amazing (thanks to the atmosphere the waiter/waitress spreads in the restaurant).
Couldnt agree less with the costs on mobiles.
As Phil stated, Germany is awefully expensive compared to the rest of Europe.
exactly
Well, they are cheaper than the US atleast.
I believe Switzerland, Luxembourg and Scandinavian countries are more expensive, probably Britain and Ireland too.
25% tip is not normal in the U.S. You do NOT have to tip 20% or more if you don't want to. It's 15% for decent service, 20% for great service. If the food was bad (not the servers fault) and the service was bad (definitely the server's fault) you don't have to tip at all! It's all optional.
Go to Switzerland or Liechtenstein and try to find anything...cheap. Restaurant and grocery prices will blow your mind...
Yup. Totally agree. Currently pay $45 for maybe 5 mbp. And it is cutting out a lot. Happy to say next year big move back to Germany.
My favorite German rieslings only cost about $12 to $15/bottle here in Maryland. I wonder if import taxes play a role in the price differentiation.
I live in Germany and I am from the USA. German super markets have a larger selection of candies than most American stores I’ve been too. Unless it’s Christmas or Halloween, American stores only have one isle dedicated to candy and cookies. Germans sometimes have 2 to 3 isles of cookies and candy.
Hygieneartikel!!!! Deo, Shampoo, Zahnpasta usw. ist in Deutschland soooooo viel billiger!!!!
A deodorant for 6$ ???? That’s insane!
yep. They are pretty affordable in Germany :)
I need to pay around 300€ per Semester as a fee for administration and like 90% is for the public transportation ticket. I can take nearly any Bus and Train in NRW.
lil tip: Trader Joe's is Aldi in the US. (Trader Joe's was bought in ~1975 by Aldi Nord)
Wait, there is a law that in any bar, restaurant, etc., at least one non-alcoholic beverage needs to be offered at the same price or less as the cheapest alcoholic one.
That's so funny :D
I have to pay 178€ per semester but a public transport card is included
Das Studium kostet immer noch. In NRW zahlt man 260euro (ungefähr) für 1 Semester,bekommt aber damit auch eine Fahrkarte für ganz NRW für ein Semester
If I'm not mistaken Germany also got rid of tuition fees for foreign students who want to go to college there.
John Bower Unfortunately that's not true for the state of Baden Württemburg. Here students coming from outside of the EU have to pay around 1,700€ per semester.
@@KristinaKk_xx120 that is actually where I am from. I was born in Stuttgart, but I grew up in Göppingen. Then we moved to the USA unfortunately. I thought my uncle said it was free...either way, that is still super cheap compared to the American prices.
John Bower that's true!
@@KristinaKk_xx120 that is where the USA really messed up. Privatization of schooling (college) and Healthcare. They don't look at the big picture. Why deny someone the chance to further their education due to their financial situation....that might be the person that cures cancer or AIDS, but we will never find out because they couldn't afford college. Think about all the people that could have been helped or saved due to free Healthcare ...people don't go to the doctor here because they can't afford a simple check-up....don't get me started on what the cost is to go to the hospital for an emergency. The savings you had saved up for your entire life just vanishes in an instance ( that's if you have medical insurance through your employer that you pay for) and if you don't have insurance then you have to sell everything you have and have to work the rest of your life just to pay off 1 hospital bill.....its crazy
I pay 234€ per semester and get a Trainticket for free that allows me to travel in the state "Hessen" , where i studie, and which costs normal 365€ and on top my parents still get child money/ or when moved out Barfög which makes it overall nearly completly free!
Malaysia small restaurant or food hall they never asking for tip, unless you feel their service is good you pay by your self or just ask the staff to keep change .Normally not more than RM1. The hotel or cafe already charge 10% service charge, so we seldom pay extra tip unless we really like the service of the staff, then we give tip to he/ she directly.(Normally I just pay at luxury restaurant or hotel restaurant only (RM10-20 )
In Sweden I don’t tip at all unless the service is extremely good. But the servants has a decent salary
In spain I pay 3,5€/month = 4GB (4G) + 120min. But even I would say this is rare (since the minimum data nowadays is like 20GB). So probably you can get those 20GB for around 12€.
Internet prices in Hungary are slightly cheaper, for home internet (ethernet cable) there is 100Megabit/s with unlimited data for 8-9 euros!
For my mobile phone im using 2 SIM cards(with a dual-SIM phone of course), one prepaid card because im not talking too much, 10 euros enough for me for 2 months, and for mobile data im paying around 20 euros for 150GB+150GB(for nighttime extra data, its included in the plan, i can use it from 11PM to 8AM), so basically 300GB of 100-120 Megabit/s internet for 20Euro per month.
Their eyes match your dress and its super cute
Germany´s Mobile Data is really expensive. You can get unlimited data for 20 Euros in Sweden
He said that by European standards it's expensive. But still a lot cheaper than in other parts of the world
@@S_Black the problem is here in germany you do not get the service you pay for
considering internet, Austria is so cheap because it is used as some kind of testing field for Germany, because the demographics are quite similar. so there is a lot of competition and trying out and offers change quite fast. I change my tariff at least once a year. sometimes twice.
Da Phil ja Kebap fan ist, solltet ihr mal in Oldenburg AL Hays Kartoffeldöner versuchen. Träumchen
The reason groceries are so cheap is largely because the discounters pushed the margins to be very low. It's the main reason Walmart failed in Germany. There were several things they did wrong, but many of their tricks to get down costs were already in use by others, so there wasn't really any room to undercut anyone.
Eastern Europe is cheaper, but that's because those countries are poorer. In the UK food is a little cheaper on average according to statistics (you can look up comparative price levels online).
But that isn't really such a good thing. The large supermarket chains have so much power that they can force the producers to sell to them at a lower cost. "Sell to us, or we won't buy anything from you." That means that many small farmers or companies can barely exist and many of them go out of business.

Denmark is generally expensive but phone contracts are reasonably cheap. You can get 1TB of data, unlimited talk and messages starting from 20 euros.
I would have to disagree on the doner part, a cheapest alternative at least in Athens Greece, where i live, is the greek souvlaki (pita with gyro) pretty similar to a doner. It costs 2.5euros and its pretty fullfilling. My fiance is german so i've tried doner myself so that i can compare.
