Groceries in Finland 

I was wondering why your beetroots were so expensive but you took ticket for papayas :D

Remember that the 0,40€ "pantti" on those bottles is in the price when you buy them. You don't get anything when you return them because you have paid the price already. Although if you collect a bottle from the side of the road then it is free money. That is why you don't see any plastic bottles or aluminum cans on the side of the road in Finland. And if you see one you should pick it up and return it. :)

If you ask me, K-Citymarket is usually better quality, Prisma is cheaper. At least around here.

Nice Grocery Store and good idea for empty plastic bottle with money in return instead of throwing it in the waste bin. 👍new here❤

3:25 Check out those tin cans, pickled cucumber slices with chili and garlic are really good.

You can plant those herbs and have a herb garden at your home, "yrtti- ja vihannesmulta" ( = herb and vegetable soil ) is good for that purpose.

There was one smoked sander (kuha) for variety among them salmons.

Looks tasty. What is your favorite way to eat that rye bread?

I think that Lidl is more familiar to those who come from abroad. Otherwise there are no confusing scales at all.😊

Welcome. Hope you like it here.

It's so sad that EU is trying to change the deposit system in Finland for empty bottles. In my opinion it works great on Finland and should not be changed. Also, I noticed you drink Hartwall vichy, that's my favorite drink too! You are a woman of culture! 😂

When you bought beetroots , did you press "2"?!!! You must not! You just have to put them on the scale and take the note. If you press "2", i think you pay twice the required amount. You have to press the 2, 3, 4(and so on) if the product is sold by the piece (pastaija, riisipiirakka, lihapiirakka, pulla…).

We like salmon😎

These karelian pies go quite well as replacement for bread too. Atleast I tend to eat them with ham and cheese every now and then and tastes totally fine. Maybe not a culinary masterpiece, but anyway. :p

Tried Sodastream or similar for sparkling water? Works well with local tap water.

You put wrong "hintalapun" price tag, I mean you choose wrong number 3:12, those are beetroots, not Green Papaya/Vihreä Papaija. I think you pay too much those beetroots.

Salmons are usually rainbow trout or norwegian atlantic salmon, which should always be avoided. Its grown in large open net basins that are a threat to wild atlantic salmon, spreading desieses and poor genetic material if they escape and mate with wild ones.

I have become obsessed with recycling ♻.. Me!! I was that *badbly" when I was younger, and back then I recycled only my fists from some other man face, back and forth, as a bonus I normally ended with an back an so-called "Danish head".... . The bonus was to see that man go to sleep. Today is the bonus all them bottles 🍾.. 👍

It's a pain in the a... When you plan only to buy some milk and eggs as an example. They are always so far away from the entrance. 😢😢😢

Ruisleipä + suolakurkku + meetvursti = orgams

There is al ready comments about the scale and numbers. Now you over paid of those beetroots more than 4 times the real price. You need to be more carefull with that. There´s no trouble if you pay too much for the pruduct, but if you buy something more expencive like those papayas and put code of beetroot in to the pack and the register pays attention (like he/she should) for the price tag. Then they could think that you have tried to scam the register and you would be in trouble. That would be considered same as stealing and in worst case you might get ticket from police for that. Of course the register might understand that as a foreigner you´ve just been confused and put the wrong tag for mistake, but i tought better to tell that you wont get any trouble for that.
