8 Things that are SURPRISINGLY 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 Our Girls Hahaha jk.... Or am I ;-)

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 🙄

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 :-) :-(

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!

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😂

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!

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.

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"

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.

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.

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 ...

Ich auch!

Thanks a lot! :)

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?

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.

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. ;-)

thanks a lot! You were fast to watch today 😬✌

To pay cash is part of freedom. No paternalism and control by others. I won't hope the swedish model will come here.

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

yep. They are pretty affordable in Germany :)

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.

How much a an orange or Mellon in Japan? I heard they're like 50 dollars, is that right?

We are happy you found our channel too! 🤗💜

@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.

exactly

Well, they are cheaper than the US atleast.

I believe Switzerland, Luxembourg and Scandinavian countries are more expensive, probably Britain and Ireland too.

That's so funny :D

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.

Sparkling wine :)

Julia Greitemann Glaub mir, In Südamerika ist alles dreimal teurer😂 Vor allem Kleidung..... (Lebe in Ecuador)

I think most people feel that way. Overall, it's not cheap but things can be super expensive in other countries :)

Wenn man einmal im Ausland war und fähig ist auf Basis der Wechselkurse Preisvergleiche anzustellen, *weiß* man, dass die Preise vieler Produkte in Deutschland vergleichsweise billiger sind als in sehr vielen anderen Ländern. Dann legt sich das mit dem *gefühlt* teueren Deutschland ganz schnell...

Woher kommt dieses "Gefühl" warst du schon mal in einen anderen Land als Vergleich?

Lebensmittel sind in Deutschland vergleichsweise billig und man hat eine große Auswahl. Wohnraum und Bauland sind dagegen brutal teuer.

Daniel Hanke man sagt doch, je doller die Kopfschmerzen desto hochwertiger war das Bier

there is a video how they METT already :D

Oh really, what's the title?

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

I know, right? In Romania I only pay 5 euro/month at Vodafone and everything is unlimited,from minutes to mobile data, I don't even use wi-fi at home:))

@4 inch Cawk Exactly, wise people make more important things cheaper. Cheap mobile data is a 3rd world thing

Don´t forget that also an australian dollar is only 0.64US Dollars worth it, which would lead to about 15 us dollars wage. Minimum wage in germany in US dollars would be roughly 10.20 dollars.
