- LargoLasskhyfv 2y agoHuh. No wonder. In .de that must have been because of their opening times, many of them 24/7. But that convenience stuff was always more expensive, and depending on your taste and preferences not especially desirable. Mostly tabac and alcoholics, I guess. That was pre-Covid. Post-covid full greedflation set in. Like two to five times more expensive, than the also more expensive stuff in supermarkets. Memories from about 1.5 years ago, for something on 'special sale' for €9,99(20 Deutsche Mark, Alder, Ey!), a 0,33L can of some whiskey-coke, which sells for about €2,50 to €3 normally. Bag of chips, €4,99(10 Mark!1!!), single candy bar, €3,99 WTF?! I don't see that to this level in the .us for comparable stuff.
