I absolutely LOVE these types of videos! It would be so cool to get similar tours of other types of stores or malls in Iceland - it might sound silly but videos like these help calm my nerves when traveling somewhere new - I feel like I at least *know* where and how to buy things, or move through certain spaces if that makes sense!

In 2006, my husband and I went to Reykjavik for our honeymoon. There was a Bonus a few blocks from our hotel in the main shopping district. We purchased what we thought was regular milk for our morning coffee. We purchased something that was labeled as Lettmjolk. We thought it was a 1% or skim milk. While it was a dairy product, per the hotel staff it’s more of a digestive aid. Definitely not good in coffee. We still laugh about our milk buying experience in Iceland.

Well, we had them(they still exist..) in most shops in Norway in the 1980's, even small markets had a refrigerated room ;15 feet by 25 feet, to the normal supermarkets had (some still have them) where the rooms measured 60 feet by a 100 feet, but they are mostly gone now. The reason being that sales of refrigerated products go up by letting customers be in normal indoor temperature when they are picking stuff. It is better business not having them. Storerooms for storing are of course refrigerated still.

I was in Bonus about two weeks ago in Reykjavik and was actually pretty impressed. I visited specifically with the intention of "what would it be like if I was doing my weekly shopping here," and while it was more expensive than here in North Carolina, it wasn't really markedly so - and a surprising number of items were actually cheaper.

What I love about these videos. Yours and other channels. It seems to be only americans who are new to this idea that shopping for food in other countries, the type of food, size, cost. That its actually an interesting thing. That is how everyone else in the world acts when they come to the USA. Yet americans dont seem to understand why things are so special grocery wise in the US. They dont understand that other countries, love what is sold in the US. Its a fascinating thing and it seems to be such a new and exciting concepts to americans. Welcome to the world of this is why canadians and other countries find the USA so fascinating in their grocery stores. The same way myself and others are interested to see whats sold in iceland!

I usually use eggs as a cheap source of protein when I travel. I used many of kettles to boil eggs in Scotland. Eggs were about $2 a dozen there at the time. I also choked when I read eggs can be $6+ a dozen in Iceland. I will have to pivot and figure out something else for when I visit. I have already bought a case of protein bars to bring with to help with snacking. Or maybe a protein bar and an apple every morning for breakfast. I will be in a camper van so not a ton of options for storing cold items for more than a day and heating options. Need lots of 1 pot meals.

I'm a little late but just wanted to say this is why it's important to watch videos from multiple sources. I watched a previous video on shopping in Iceland and that person complained about empty shelves and high prices and not being able to find basic items. I think she edited her video to make it look like Iceland only had salt and lamb chops. She mostly showed her feet walking and only stopped at shelves that had very few items. Thanks for keeping it 💯!

Love all your videos. I am not sure if I missed one and maybe you already did one on this. We are going to be traveling by car and staying in hotels so no opportunity to prepare meals or keep things refrigerated. We will probably eat dinner in the hotel or restaurants every night but to save time I think we would like to pick up sandwiches somewhere and bring them with us to eat along our route. We haven't quite figured out what to do about breakfast yet although the hotels seem to all offer options there. In most of the videos that I have seen the people are either traveling by camper or staying in AirB&B type places where they can prepare meals. Would love to see suggestions for the rest of us. Really looking forward to taking this trip with my daughter at the end of September and your videos have been a great source of info. Keep up the good work.

Some of the best chocolate in the world is in Iceland. Salted caramel is my wife's favorite. Mine is mint. We keep several bars of chocolate in the car for a snack while driving. I still have my Bonus bags from my last trip so the keep well. My wife loves Skyr. A snack or part of a meal. On my last trip I bought a waffle maker at the flee market for 10 dollars. Bonus has waffle mix and that is my breakfast. Iceland waffles are to die for. My wife has two eggs a day. Eggs are somewhat expensive in Iceland but still a good by. Breakfast in Iceland is an important meal. It might be somewhat expensive but it is worth it. One problem that I have is that the food is labeled in Icelandic. My wife and I will be on our 8 visit to Iceland in July. Bonus is where we do most of our shopping. I met you on one of my trips a few years ago in the brewery. I gave every one some of my calendars that I made. We were in Iceland last July and got great views of the volcano. There are two places that I will shop at in Iceland. The weekend flee market in downtown Reykjavik and second hand stores. The flee market is near the famous hot dog stand that Bill Clinton made famous. Iceland is a great place for a hot dog. A hot dog and Ice cream and it is a good day. Thank for the video and would be nice to see you again. We took our friends to the brewery last year and it has change, the no longer brew there own beer. Have a great day and thank you for another great video. Linda and Ben

If I'm ever fortunate enough to visit Iceland for a second time I'll try and book more guesthouses and fewer hotels so I can take the cheaper self-catered route. As expected a lot of the products are very similar to those we have in the UK. I find I have more of a truly foreign experience looking through American Kroger stores! 6:55 Is that Bernie Sanders on the left? I guess he shops at Bonus 😆

HI Jeannie. We are wrapping up our stay here in 2 days and your videos and Iceland planning site (well worth it) were extremely helpful. We were able to cover much of the south using Reykjavik as a base. Thoughts: Medications. Nothing easily available such as Sudafed, ibuprofen, etc. My son had a cold and we were able to find nasal spray, so, your viewers should bring any basic meds that they may need. Also, the hike to Reykjadalur near Hveragerdi might deserve a video. The spring at the top was WELL WORTH the hike. Overall, one thing that you were right about. PREPARE FOR COLD. Wow. Brrr. Thanks for your help. F

Meds are only sold in Pharmacies (Apótek). Sudafed is not sold here but ibuprofen definitely is sold OTC. But when we say OTC we really mean over the counter, medicine is kept behind the counter in the pharmacy.

When I travel to another country, I always want to go to a grocery store. It is the one place where you know what is going on, how it works. But it still is different than in the US.

I keep hearing how expensive food is in Iceland, but after seeing this video, it’s honestly cheaper than Canada, sometimes way cheaper (even double on some items shown here). So I for one am looking for to paying LESS for groceries when I visit Iceland as a Canadian 🇨🇦♥️🇮🇸

Prices are not bad there. Everything is very close to the prices in the southeast in USA. Prices have gone up about 30% to 40% in the last 3 years. Very expensive here!

In all your videos that I have watched I have never seen you talk about what area we can get the bread that is cooked in the ground(hope I have this right). I may have missed it (apologies if you have mentioned it). Would love to know where that is and if it can be done on a camper van tour around Iceland. Thanks

I live in California and these prices are fairly comparable. I thought 🇮🇸 would have been way more, but I could totally grocery budget for food in the land of the northern lights!

Same here in Eastern Canada. I don't see any big differences in price or other things. We often bag our own here and always use our own bags. No single use plastics here! Costco here has those carts that can go in many directions and some other places. Where in the US are you from?

Heyy!!! Thank you so much for the Iceland videos.. we are visiting in August and your videos help me prepare for my upcoming trip. I just had a quick question regarding Bonus. I wanted to know if all Bonus’s have all the products or is there a particular one that you prefer going to for a bigger selection? I am asking because there is a Bonus practically next door to my accommodation in downtown Reykjavik. But was wondering if that might have everything or should I stop on my way from the airport at a bigger store and pick up my supplies? Thanks again for the fun and informative videos!

That whole room is a cooler? It's cool enough to have meat just hanging from pegs rather than refrigerated?
