Yesterday, when I dipped accross the border in Basel and stepped into Marktkauf....I found Listerine mouthwash for 3.69EUR. I thought I'd share it with you as I'm sure there are people looking to disguise their recent traces of fondue, garlic bread, a couple of beers etc. and the local stuff just wouldn't cut it.
its been available there for at least the last 6 years
Although have been here for over 2.5 years but only recently I can enjoy luxury of driving. Every week I discover something new...
Last week in Waldshut Tiengen's Kaufland, nevermind the cheap meat and sausages, great selection of Kellogs, sauces, potatoe salad, Collgate paste you name it, made my day.
Yesterday, in Bad Sackingen and in aforesaid Kaufland, amongst the obvious stuff, I discovered nice coolers and breezers e.g. Captain Morgan & Coke, Smirnoff Ice & Coke, Baccardi & Cola, Jim Beam & Cola... Perfect stuff to throw party.
But my number one discovery of yesterday was great selection of Danone yougurts
Hence I started warming up to idea of shopping across the border. Next time, I am pretty sure to find Renu contact lense solution.
I've noticed, that there is also a great variety of gluten free products....
Also, that place is right across the border. I can imagine, that if you'd drive further north, that prices would be way cheaper as well.
That's some kind of strategic plan
I saw some in a pharmacy in Baden (AG) and you are right, the local stuff does not make the grade at all.
Er Thanks, but I don't want to share your mouthwash.
Come on Glendy..I don't have cooties.
I was also happy to find Listerine in Baden, until I saw the price It was at an apoteke and the cost around 12 fracs for a 750ml bottle. There are probably cheaper places around, but I still have some of my econo-sized bottle from Costco left.
When my husband was given 'CORSODYL' by his dentist (a friend!!) - I was none too pleased- for obvious reasons. (Odile)
That sounds about right, twice the cost of what it is in Oz, but you know, we all get those swiss salaries so we can afford it (sighs)
Should we organize a party so we could compare?
You can buy it in the Apothekes here too, seen it since the week I arrived in CH, around 7 CHF.
