      This is proof why everyone should shop around and vote with their feet. There is great value out there.

      I imagine this is due to alcohol tax right?
      The overprice because of greedy/colluded companies (not due to healthy taxes) is outrageous.
      Overprice due to healthy taxes (tobacco, alcohol, sugar-sweetened beverages, etc.), in my opinion is good.

    3. Yeah different countries haven’t different taxes on different goods is not news

      Yeah it’s just the alcohol tax to promote a healthier lifestyle. I agree as a human, I disagree as a broke drinker.

      We have 23% sales tax and are amongst the top three excise tax on alcohol in EU. I remember finding you could buy a bottle of whiskey in Spain for less than the taxes paid on the same bottle in Ireland. Probably still the case.

      And you can get a pint of Guinness for 50c in Nigeria, what’s your point?

      Yep, I was in Galway a few weeks back and was astonished a bottle of Jameson goes for 32€, while in Austria its around 22€ and in Slovakia sometimes as low as 14€

      I payed 50 euro for a double green spot in Tallinn airport once, still traumatised.

      Yeah but when you factor in the return flights costs you’re barely saving anything over shopping local

      This is the exact same incapability to understand financial relativity someone else was talking about today in another thread 

      Minimum wage per hour in Japan is ¥1,001 per hour

      This bottle is about ¥2000, so 2 hours work at minimum wage

      2 hours at minimum wage would be €27 a bottle here.

      Stop fucking picking random prices around the globe and going “look how this converts to Euros”, that’s not how business works

      I used to bring a bottle back from Ireland for my French father-in-law. Until I realised it was cheaper to buy it here in France.
