I’m traveling to Iceland next week. The recommendations from this video, along with the coupon app you mentioned in another video is going to help me so much to stretch my food budget farther. Thank you.
These all sound wonderful! It’s obviously a popular video. Next time you’re in the Capitol maybe you could update it with footage from the places, food, etc and locations? Also I’d love an update on your jewelry. It seems tourists like me are looking for info - thanks for giving such detailed information
@@sarahconnell6332 Yes I keep meaning to get some footage when I'm in Reykjavík, but I feel a little nervous about filming in public at the moment 😅 I will make an update video very soon!
Here in the US Costco sells the hotdog w/drink for $1.50! Thanks for the tips as I eat very light so hate spending a fortune on food. Traveling to Iceland this summer so needed options.
We also have Costco here that sells cheap food! Can't remember exact prices but I believe that Costco cards can be used internationally so it might be worth bringing yours with you to get a cheap lunch 😊
Thanks for watching ❤️ I'm actually planning on doing a couple of videos soon about vegetarian snacks, foods and restaurants in Iceland! I hope you have a lovely trip
@@LoppyLoves looking forward to your new vid on more vegetarian snacks. Esp those reasonably priced ready to eat from grocery store. Im a lacto ovo vegetarian who take eggs n milk but allergy to onion n garlic. Many tks🙏🏻
I love the current exchange rate between the Iceland Krona and the Canadian Dollar, because 1 kr is pretty much one Canadian cent (0.01 dollar), making it trivial to convert your food prices to CAD. It's like a metric conversion! That said, I'm finding the Iceland prices that you are quoting rather high (or maybe it is just that Canada/US prices are low relative to much of the world.) $9 for a small fries (even if that is a generous helping for "small") is quite a lot. That said, I understand that Iceland must import many food items, which would go a long way to explain the prices. I also found it peculiar that the beef soup option was less than the chicken option - the reverse to what I would expect here. Just FYI, for Reykjavik Chips, according to the online menu anyway, the sauces are extra (200 kr) Also, thanks again for another look at life in Iceland.
Yes we have a lot of things imported to Iceland, the cost of living is very high here, and we pay high taxes which all contribute to the prices. It is an expensive country! I just checked the Reykjavík chips website and you are correct! This video was made almost 2 years ago so a lot of the prices are probably now inaccurate, I'm planning to make an updated video this Summer 😊
@LoppyLoves Actially, for Reykjavik Fries, at least, your price from the video are still accurate - perhaps the sauces are now extra to compensate for their rising costs but without increasing the prices on their menu. I'll have to check with our local Subway to gauge the Icelandic prices, as I would think that the offerings would at least be comparable.
YT knew I may need your advice on my trip to Iceland very soon ;) (a second one, so I more or less know what to expect). I hope I'll find time to expplore your whole YT channel :)
Hi! Thanks for this video. I will be travelling around Iceland in April/ May in my spartan VW non- camper T5. I will certainly try some, if not all, of your tips, less Subway!. Maybe we will bump into each other at IKEA ;-)
There are some tourist attractions that use hot springs to boil eggs, and I've heard of people still using the heat in the earth to bake Icelandic rye bread But I think most people here are jusy cooking in their kitchen like many countries 🙂
