I'm a simple emigrant and I've already gotten lost in the prices

Lately I've been finding myself more and more unable to give a personal assessment of something as expensive or cheap. This feels especially sharp in daily purchases: groceries, hygiene products, household chemicals. So you go to the store, you seem to have bought nothing, but €40 (~ 4000 rubles) is as if it never happened, and sometimes you end up buying a lot and the bill climbs to around €100. And that's without fancy products or delicacies. Usually I don't pay attention to the price of each item I pick up, so an unexpectedly seen price tag often shocks me. For example, four rolls of toilet paper for €5. I wouldn't buy such a thing, and yes, princesses buy it too. In general, to get a handle on price levels, I decided to ask for your opinion. Here I'll present a list with prices for everyday goods. These are average Frankfurt prices at the end of 2024; let's compare prices in different countries. By the way, I'm not up to date on food costs in Tyumen either; I'd be happy to hear. Please write in the comments how much you spend on your everyday staple items and your impression of it. #money
