“Let whoever can save himself flee this treacherous and thieving country”
“The usual. There’s talk of a fuel cartel, but the cartel is about food. There’s no competition here.”
These are the comments on social media about an uploaded photo that clearly shows the enormous price difference of the same product. On the one hand, a bottle of mayonnaise in an English “Liddle” is photographed at a price of £1 = BGN 2.27, and on the second photo it can be seen that the price in our stores of the same chain is BGN 6.49 per the same product.
This is not the first price comparison made in the social network space by our disappointed compatriots about the sometimes more expensive prices for the same products in Bulgaria and countries like England and Germany.
There are also comments some users have made below the post, comparing Bulgarian vs. UK pros, for example.
“If life is just mayonnaise, yes, I can give 100 examples in the opposite direction, here’s one: all comment here, so you need internet – in Bosnia and Herzegovina I pay 10 lev per month, in England for internet worse than that in BG it costs £40 a month,” commented one user.
“London rent – £1,300 for a one bedroom flat, Sofia rent 600 BGN. Insurance in England £1,000, insurance in Bulgaria 250 BGN. Peppers from the market 1 BGN, peppers in Tesco 1.60-70 per 3 bushels. Come on, behold, with these comparisons you have become a laughing stock.” commented a Facebook user.
