Work / Cost of Living, Average Salaries and Job sites in Poland [263]
Maybe we could just type some price examples here so people will have a detailed idea about the topic.
Let me give start as far as i remember.
----
Location: Kraków
Date: September 2010
Exchange Rates (approx): 1 Zł = 0.25€ = 0.35$ <-> 1€ = 4 Zł , 1$ = 3 Zł
Food & Drink
Loaf of Bread - 2 zl
Egg - 0,5 zl
1 lt Milk - 2 zl
200 gr Butter - 2,5 zl
200 gr Cottage Cheese - 3 zl
250 gr Mozarella Cheese - 6 zl
Round pastry with sesame - 1,5 zl
1 piece of lettuce - 4 zl
1 kg of trout - 15 zl
2 lt of apple juice - 4 zl
0,33lt (one can) of Coca Cola - 1,5 zl
0,5lt of ice tea - 3,5 zl
100 gr white chocolade - 3,5 zl
1 kg banana(around 3-4 piece) - 7 zl
1 kg apple - 4 zl
1 kg red grapes - 10 zl
A cup of hot chocolate in a centrally located cafe - 6 or 8 zl
One vodka+juice in a centrally located bar - 4 or 5 zl
0,5lt Beer (Kiwi aroma) in a centrally located bar - 7 zl
One portion(7-8 pieces) of pierogi in a local restaurant - 8 or 10 zl
One portion soup, one mixed salad, Some kind of fried cheese and french fries in a local restaurant - 14 or 15 zl
I don't really eat meat so i don't know much about them but as far as i remember, there were lots of kind of hams and prices were around 10-15 zl per kg. sausages are even cheaper.
Transportation
Maybe someone can fill this place much better than me. Still:
one way bus&tram ticket - 2,5 zl (%50 reduced for students)
Train tickets to Warsaw - 40 zl (around 25 zl for students)
I am not living in Poland at the moment so i don't know much about the prices but these were the ones i remember. I mostly shopped from local street markets by the way.
We can fill here with more categories and examples i guess. Everyone who wants to join can have a post like mine and for example just type your latest grocery shopping list here :) Or if you have just started to go to a fitness center, just type the membership fee (maybe with the comparison you already made before picking up the best place). I am also sure that one can give us a detailed information about cigarettes & alcohol prices too. They are an important part of monthly expenditure for some people. How about the wining & dining gourmets. Share your latest menus with us.
Thanks and Cheers
