Rimi is a stupidly overpriced chain.
Must be that infamous rugged coastline
As long as idiots buy, prices are gonna be high.

We pay €1.45 for Bananas in Ireland, if I go over the border into the north it’s just 90p (€1.08) for the same bananas that enter the island of Ireland through the same port, make it make sense
I hate cherry picking comparisons. You are comparing regular prices in Letonia VS deal prices in France. You should compare a basic basket of products to make a real comparison.
What is it with you and comparing things to other places highlighting that you have a minimum wage. Before it was gasoline. Do you have an elections going on ? Are you negotiating minimum wages? What is your point ?
Okay, so what’s the conclusion from this? Different tax rates? Some luxury item’s are more expensive because there’s less demand for it? Rimi’s price gouging?
At my local supermarket in Sweden:
Bananas ~ 2,6€/kg
Butter ~ 3,9€/250g (not the cheapest one)
Nectarines – not available right now
Milka cookies – not available, but Marabou cookies that look exactly the same (the same image on packaging, just different colour) cost ~3,2€/175g
Illy coffee – not availble, but coffee costs ~6-7,5€/500g
Broccoli ~ 1,5€/250 g, ~2,8€/500g
Sunflower oil ~ 4,5€/1L
Bounty ~1,1€/57g
Finland has probably the highest prices compared to peoplea salaries. This is a fucked up country.
there are also cavendish bananas at the same carrefour in france from colombia at 1.99 eur/kg and they are not labeled as BIO…
From my quick research food in France has 10% VAT and in Lithuania ~~5~~ 21% VAT. You can say certain foods in Lithuania are expensive, but you should keep in mind other living costs, like transport costs (fuel or public transport costs), house prices, etc.
Edit: I was wrong, Lithuania VAT for food is 21%.
Banana for scale.
are you only just learning that the EU isnt set up for your benefit? Its set up for the benefit of Spain, France and Germany.
As soon as you start thinking with that mentality, everything makes sense.
Each image I open my eyes wider. Man…
You guys also have a rugged coastline?
Almost 2€ / kg in Greece
In Serbia is 1.60e/kg (189rsd)
Some store have sale 1.10e (139rsd)
In Lithuania, every shop uses the tactic where they keep higher prices and then suddenly offer 20-40% deals for some items. And people got used to shopping for what is on deals. So shops dictate what people eat.
OP, looking at you profile, do you have an agenda?
In france, bananas are most often at 1.9€/kg. This an exceptional good deal so not fair for comparison
You know what’s funny? That coffe here in Trieste, where the Illy factory is located, costs 1€ more than in France.
The Lithuanian rugged coastline
0.81€/kg of Bananas is EXTREMELY cheap. In Germany, the cheapest are 1,29€/kg. (Sometimes, when there is a sale for 0.99€). Here in Spain, it’s around 1.50€
The same list with Swedish prices (I picked a bigger store close to me, because the smaller one didn’t have everything, so prices are a little bit cheaper than smaller stores)
Price per kg:
Banana 2,38€
Butter 9,90€
Nectarine 8,76€
Chocolate (we don’t have that one so I picked Fazer) 14,58€
Espresso (don’t have that one either so I picked a similar one) 17,65€
Broccoli 6,35€
Sunflower oil 4,42€
As we say in poland, prices are like in west, but salaries are eastern.
Further driving the point that the union is hardly unioned.
They cost 1-2 € / kg in Belgium depending on type
So good in Poland we are still using our currency, not shitty euro.
