That'd probably be 30$ in the US, give or take a couple bucks

It's all cheap stuff. Leave out the beer and about $20AU including GST.

the shipping alone would triple it

Aside from the eggs and chicken those prices aren't that far off from California. We can't get Leffe at that price, but we can get high abv Russian beer.

40 dollars canadian monopoly money

At least $150, thanks Joe

Lol Cali is at least double for everything. The animal products at least 4x higher in cali as well

>>19093638
Lol no it's around $9,000

>Americans get shocked at a government that subsidizes food like theirs subsidizes gasoline
It's so people don't riot, imagine if Russians actually had to pay the equivalent of $15 for a bottle of vodka, they'd make the Russian Revolution look bloodless

>>19093490
That a lot of random items. The bag of milk seems pretty small too.

15 dollars is like their whole month salary there.

>>19093490
I live in Chicago and that would probably be $28-$32 here. Depending on the price of the Belgian beer.

>>19093490
It doesn't really give a fair comparison because buckwheat is common food in Russia, so it can be sold cheaply, but here it's rare so it's sold much more expensive as a special niche food.
Many of the other things seem pretty reasonable but the buckwheat gives an unfair comparison.

Dunno maybe £15 roughly

15 dollars maybe a bit more due to inflation

>>19093638

>>19093711
Every, even semi functional government subsidizes food to some extent. Even ancient Rome gave people a daily grain dole

>>19093490
Some of the items are a little cheaper, but I don't think many single can beers here are even below $3, real bread is probably $3 minimum for a loaf.

Can confirm as a commiefornian about 30 miles out from San Francisco. If you got somewhere like Trader Joe's or Whole foods that's closer to 60 bucks depending on the bread and chicken.

>>19093691
why are apples so cheap in europe when they are imported from the US and china? are they all just shit chinese apples?
apples in the US cost way more but they are alright at least. the cheapest ones would convert to 3.85 euros/kg and are really for making apple sauce or apple pie not eating.
apples for direct eating are 5.70 euros a kg

>>19093490
Just checked actual prices and about $30 here in middle America, and about $5 of that difference is the chicken alone. That's like what, 50 cents per pound? I'm not sure I even believe that.

>>19093490
about £20, or about US$25
this assumes it was 1k of chicken legs, 1kg of sugar, 4 pints of milk, a 750ml Leffe, 6 pack of eggs, 500g of pasta, 500g buckwheat, and 250g of cheese
I couldn't find a small vanilla coke, but a normal one is about £1 to £2 depending on where you get it from
I also put on a tin of sardines as they're 37p/100g
The really expensive thing was the Buckwheat. It's £4/kg whereas long grain rice is £0.45/kg. Oats are £0.70/kg, lentils £1.80/kg, and barley £1.30/kg
More expensive than Russia, but the UK has a median income of nearly 3x what Russia does
>>19097098
I'm not really sure how competitive supermarkets are in the US, but here in the UK they'll fight tooth and nail to keep their prices as low as possible because they know consumers will happily shop at the cheapest place.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-61978595
It's to do with the cost of living crisis, but this happened a few years ago as well. For a frame of reference, Tesco has just under 30% of the UK supermarket market share.
>>19097198
how much is the chicken for you? It would be about US$1.39 for UK raised and slaughtered fresh chicken legs.

>>19097265
I'm not 100% on the size of the pack he picked up but chicken drumsticks here go from $2-$3 per lb.

>>19097316
that's quite expensive

>>19093490

This is just a demonstration of the spending power of the USD internationally.
You can't just convert foreign prices to USD and expect it to reflect the relative price of goods.
You have to look at the wages in the country.
For example, you might think someone is poor if they only make 1000 USD a year, but if rent is only 250 USD a year then they're fine.

You pay a deposit on most containers:
Glass beer bottles: 0.08€
Most glass water/juice/lemonade bottles, some glass beer bottles: 0.15€
Almost all plastic/metal single-use containers (bottles, cans): 0.25€
There are some exceptions (wine, many dairy containers).
After use, you can return the container to the shop and get your deposit back. A lot of people also collect empty cans and bottles for money (picrel: a campaign calling people to not throw their containers away, but leave then next to the trash can for Pfand-collectors). Both things drastically reduce littering.

>>19100551
I wasn't sure what the guy in the video bought (what kind, how much, on- or off-brand)), so I went with Ja!. It's the medium-aged Gouda, so it's a bit more expensive than what most people buy.

The rent price was in € and the dude appears to be central European. His job suggests he lives in a larger city. He might have no choice but to rent. Buying a house for 1.5 million € might not save him money, even if you consider 30 or 40 years. He might want to be more flexible with his living situation.

>>19093490
Leffe is brewed in Russia by Belgian brewery Inbev. They also make Budweiser in Russia because it's cheaper there. Vanilla coke is from 2002, discontinued in 2005. Everything else costs the same but is far better quality.

>>19101305
None of that is part of the question. He asked:
>You think owning a house is free? You just pay the rent to the government.
Yes, there are reasons to rent over owning, but if the only reason for renting is that ownership still involves property taxes then that's not a good reason because property taxes are still much lower than rent for an equivalently sized property.

>>19095051
Leftist cucks want to subsidize every single industry except the food and agriculture industry. Starvation is a key benefit of communism, so only agriculture should be subjected to the free market. It's almost like they don't understand that keeping the food supply stable is important. Obviously we should stop growing so much fucking corn though.

>>19093490
I have no clue, food is such a trivial expense I don't really bother to look at the price. In US and I think I spend about $300 a week or something on groceries, but I never really check prices on individual items, just buy whatever is the best tasting of anything I want.

>>19093490
I looked up each item on the Coles website and made approximations. Assuming 1kg of chicken drumsticks, 250g of cheese and 1 litre of milk.
$26.20 AUD, which is roughly $17.50 USD.
I could make it cheaper by shopping for specials and not using boxed pasta. I usually wouldn't buy chicken drumsticks either.

Also, taxes when selling your property are through the roof, especially if you owned it for less than a decade. Renting makes much more sense here if you are at all considering not staying in the same place your entire life.

Well, good for you. Not sure how that diminishes that other anons income. It's almost as if incomes depend on where you are and are always to be seen in relation to your expenses.
If you can put almost half of your income into ETF and pay 500€ rent and have 6 weeks paid leave a year, that sounds not to bad to me.

>>19103803
Maybe, but like most in here, i don't take too much notice what food costs, as it is a small percentage of my income anyway. I guess it's between 200 and 300€ a month.

Do you not just pay taxes on profit? That's the way it works here. The taxes may be heavy, but they're taxing profit, which is money you made from selling the house and didn't even have before. Profit reduced, yes, but you don't pay out of pocket and get a negative profit.

>>19104302
>Do you not just pay taxes on profit?
Sure but these can be quite substantial and these figures do not take inflation into account. So even if you don't get a "negative" profit on paper, you might as well have in some cases where the sales prices is close to the original purchasing price. Not sure why you're hung up on that part though, I mentioned this because of that ten-year period that is specified in the law where additional taxes apply if you sell within that time frame. It could be as high as 45% depending on things like your income bracket.

45% of what, though? Of the profit on the sale? Because that just goes back to my point that you're not losing existing money, you're just taking in less profit.

>>19093555
The saddest part is seeing all the neocons yelling about inflation and every Corp posting record breaking profits and them 'almost' putting 2 and 2 together.

Inflation is literally raised prices. It's profiteering. Every time the capitalists say that the reason for inflation is [insert excuse here], it's just them being greedy. And then claim them getting richer is a good thing. That's the capitalistic excuse. Well, turns out, it's not. It's just greedy people being greedy for their own benefit at the expense of others. And the right wing voters blame ANYONE but the rich rightwing fuckers and politics in charge of companies and governments. Bunch of absolute fucking morons.

>>19104410
>>19104460
Say it again but slowly. Inflation describes a phenomenon in which a unit of currency loses value. In that situation, companies will do what with prices in response? And profits, nominally, would do what as a result? Think real carefully now, anons. If there's an inflation rate of 10% and "profits" "rise" by 10%, too, did those greedy companies just become 10% richer and can buy 10% more things themselves now? C'mon, you're so close to getting it.

>>19104515
Stop trying to use logic

>>19104455
Well, economics are rarely scientific and usually far more political than anything else so people not "trusting the science" shouldn't come as a surprise.

It scares me to buy food that cheap. Chicken, eggs, pasta, certain beverage's, what do they do to them to make them that cheap and affordable? Check the ingredients on those things. If "clean", it's bottom of the barrel scraps they used to make it. Those chickens were raised behind some trailer park billys RV.

Feels good to be "rich", earning $80k/yr.

No. Economists disagree over "findings" like "taxes are currently too high to effectively balance current tax revenue needs against the need for nominal growth". They do not generally disagree over stuff like the basic definition of inflation (vs whether our priority "should" be reducing inflation or maximizing employment or whatever).

You sound like those people who think that just because some TV guy was wrong about whether stocks would go up or down tomorrow, that therefore it's uncertain whether experts think we should bring back the gold standard. Reasonable people can disagree and that doesn't mean you have to accept something insane and stupid now.

I don't think you quite understand how economies of scale work, anon. If it's a higher price then chances are it's because of lower volume and, wow, if you look at some operations raising artisanal, outdoors-living, hand-fed, naturally killed chickens or whatever they're tiny in comparison. Guess the majority of their price comes from. Hint: It's not from doing all this superfluous horseshit.

Scales aren't that fucking expensive, retard, and you don't need that many. They barely figure into the budget.

Wow no way labor costs affect the prices of goods??? What kind of capitalist black magic could be causing this

$15 for enough food for a day and a few extra apples in rural russia sounds miserable. I'm sure he could have shopped better but that must be soul-destroying.

like $25-30 post inflation
$15-20 pre

>>19093490
This would unironically be $60-$75 dollars in my shitty country

>>19093490
Around $20 in Poland. Pre inflation it would be like $10. Awful times.

that area of Europe generally has cheaper groceries, I used to live in Estonia and its the same kind of deal there
People get paid a lot less though

>>19093490
That could cost almost $100 where I live...

Usually that's how it works bud, unless you're going to Aldi's which is dog shit or you wanna go to a high end place which is even more expensive

>pay rent, utilities and clothing from
Rent is not an issue in most places, unlike western europe. It's bug pod sized housing but it's cheap.
Gas is almost free, it's a non concern. Electricity and water aren't making them break the bank.
Clothing is an issue, you have to settle for lower quality stuff sometimes but western european clothing is sold at %300 profit margins, it's not as big of a deal as you think.
What really is killer in russia is owning a decent car, anything bigger than a bugpod, electronics (since they pay a toll to the kazakh). They'll live, but never be able to go on vacation like a westerner

Khazakstan smuggles electronics into Russia so the middleman takes his cut => higher prices for consumers
