How Expensive is Switzerland? | SWISS GROCERY STORE

[@ShanCruz]

if you're living in Switzerland and earning Swiss Franc then it'll not be really expensive. It'll be expensive if you'll convert it to your local currency. 😭😭

[@LykaKrystle]

I live in Switzerland but my work is super part time, that’s why it’s extra expensive for me.

[@ellomark4633]

Shan Cruz it is expensive compare to other Western European countries, like England or Germany or pretty much anything. Lived in London for long time but food is way cheaper than this. Not sure that it’s the same quality but yeah if you are coming from an other country to visit or live there it’s expensive I believe. Also if you work in Switzerland I’m sure it’s not that expensive but I’m pretty sure there are people on budget who find these things expensive. I mean like 10 eggs, what was like ...5 franks or something. In London you can get £1 for 10 lol. Again , not sure where those eggs comes from but come on! ~£4 for 10 eggs is lol 😂

[@LykaKrystle]

Yeah, they are expensive because they pay the farmers right. I mean, it’s fair. But it is just an eye opening video to show people how much food is here especially when I keep comparing it to my home country, Philippines. ☺️

[@ArsenyKho]

@@LykaKrystle do you mind sharing what part time job you do here ? I am a student here too, so would be interested 😊

[@LykaKrystle]

I do typing jobs, and sometimes I do school work and dog sitting. Basically just random stuff that I can get in between school.

[@ruhanseri8363]

I'm so glad that I found your video. Switzerland is my dream country and I hope I could travel there someday.

She’s just stating only the prices in the grocery store , not yet the transportation trams, trains , especially trains in the touristic place, cable cars and apartments , it’s uncomparable , way too far in Australia.

[@ilovesuisse1]

Swiss earn more than Australians.

[@RineeeU]

Mostly ppl here have like shopping hacks for example in my house we only buy meat in Switzerland if it’s urgent or something we mostly buy our meat in France (cuz we live in the French area) because it’s way cheaper there but electronics in France is a huge no no we buy all our electronics in switzerland because it’s cheaper

[@LykaKrystle]

We live near the German border and go groceries there. My purpose of this video is to show non Swiss residents what the prices here are like so they know how much to budget when they eventually do visit Switzerland:)

[@jeanpieerjean7356]

This is not « Frech area » but french speaking part .

[@LykaKrystle]

Yeah, I meant to say that. In future videos, I’ll keep that in mind tho 😅👍

[@tabskoli]

Well usually these groceries stores aren’t too expensive for swiss people, but it gets very very expensive when you‘re outside and want to buy something. Like a standard Hot Dog is at least 5 CHF, usually even more. Same goes for beverages, no coke below 4 CHF, mostly 5-6 CHF.

[@LykaKrystle]

thanks for this useful tips. Looking forward to the visit that we are soon to finalize for Switzerland. Awesome awesome tips

[@rachelscholl9052]

Hi ... I like your video is very explanatory for people who want to come and visit ... but knows that I live in Switzerland and it is normal the Coop is very expensive store but you find shops with the same qualities for much cheaper! As Migros, Denner, otto’s solder Radikal Aldi and lidl may be helping you and you’re subscribed ☺️😊

[@LykaKrystle]

Hello. Thanks for stopping by, yeah.. this video is a couple of years old. In this video, I decided to go to coop cause I used to live in a town where we only had one coop and no migros at all ☺️😂 It was a very small town. And nowadays, I actually shop in Aligro, lidl and aldi for me is too out of the way but I do know that they are cheaper. In this video, kzbin.info/www/bejne/d6GslJZom9igjc0 I visited Migros and I explained that I didn’t go to aldi or lidl but they do exist here..but the locations may not be in touristic areas. ☺️☺️👍

[@1mw4tch1ng]

Here in the USA (San Diego, Ca) the price is approx about the same for the product shown.

[@LykaKrystle]

Interesting ☺️☺️☺️

[@1mw4tch1ng]

My cousins in PI or maybe other Filipinos may think just because we are earning Swiss Francs or USA dollars they think money grows in trees here. As fast your earn it, it goes out as fast on food, utilities, and rent. US dollar goes long way in the PI to us is affordable due to currency exchange between US dollar is more to pesos. Not when earning dollars and paying in dollars for goods here US.

[@LykaKrystle]

Yeah but that is something that really not a lot of people understand unless they have also experienced traveling abroad ☺️

OMG, another filipina vlogging from Switzerland! So glad I found this, will be going there in May and can't wait.

[@LykaKrystle]

☺️👍 ahh i misunderstood. I thought you were moving here for good! 😅

[@danepinar3506]

Migros is full of Migros brand products. Not too many choices, except if you go to their MMM stores, which have “more” choices. Coop is a little pricier than Migros. Aldi is okay. But Denner and Lidl have more imported choices…I love how they always make it a point to bring their own bags and charge you for plastic bags if you didn’t bring your own. The cashier and self check-out counters make everything a lot faster… IDK but in Germany, you also cannot film in their grocery stores. Privacy matters, I think. Have to get people’s consent especially when they stand out in the vid.

[@lqr824]

exactly, good summary. Migros didn't have Coke, or Toni Yogurt, so I shopped at Coop!

[@ManishJoharle]

Thanks Kyla for sharing this valuable info. It's important for me as my daughter is planning to study in UNIGE

[@LykaKrystle]

That’s nice. She will enjoy it here when she goes to school.

[@ltpyoung864]

The co-op store is convenient and sometimes they have a place that you can get the food and eat outside with an outside table also they have a delicatessen which you can also get some hot dishes as well the prices I would say Swiss normal Swiss normal

[@LykaKrystle]

☺️👍 It is super convenient.

[@shruti269]

Is Lidl cheaper than Coop there? Heard Lidl is cheap wherever they have stores

[@LykaKrystle]

It is cheaper than coop.. but they have limited stores. There are only less than 200 locations in Switzerland while coop is in every corner. ☺️👍

[@art_video_design]

Thank you. What if i want buy just not ready meat, like the one I WILL CUT AND BOIL BY MYSELF?

[@LykaKrystle]

It will be much cheaper and there are places like Aldi or LIDL here.

[@DavorPopovic]

yeah price is expensive for people in other country... but for example.. meat is around 8x time more expensive then in Serbia... but salaries are higher in switzerland around 20x time.. so actually prices are cheaper :-)

[@LykaKrystle]

Yeah that’s true..but there is also a reason why the salaries are high here... the rent is high, the insurance and other stuff. They all build up. ☺️

[@DavorPopovic]

@@LykaKrystle maybe the best calculation is ... take your salary, then from salary take all the monthly expenses, and calculate how much is left .. in Serbia remains zero .. more precisely, you live half a month without money :D

[@LykaKrystle]

In Switzerland, even if the remainder of the money is zero or even negative. Life here is still not that bad..

[@razonjoanify]

It's actually cheaper there, the berries seemed out of season so its higher in price. In my country (Australia ) our prices are actually higher and wages are higher in Switzerland than in Ausand rental/home/utility prices in Australia are a lot higher too. Can't always compare with PH otherwise it will drive you bananas.

[@LykaKrystle]

I just compare them to US and PH prices. And I’m still a student 😅 that’s also one of the big reasons why I think Switzerland is expensive

[@Xelz_28]

So, on average what are salaries like in Switzerland, those products seem reasonable. toothpaste here is $7 for the smallest one, neutrogena face wipes are around $10.

[@LykaKrystle]

Here...there is apparently no minimum wage. So for example, student jobs can range from 15-30chf per hour. And for full time professional, it is around 30-50chf per hour. Yes that is high but the food is not the only thing that is expensive here. A small apartment in the city is around 1300chf per month ☺️😅 so yeah, it is...what it is. 😂

I’m not really sure..when you are here you can ask the migration officers or you can ask your cousin to check it out for you.

[@lqr824]

Swiss have to pay health insurance though, if they have good pay, can be Sfr. 6000/year I think? Comperable US jobs usually have insurance as part of the comp, so pay is lower. In Ireland you have universal health, right?

[@FreeJulianAssange23]

Minimum wage in Switzerland is over 20/hour, Am I right?

Fun fact, there is actually no standard “minimum wage” here. I found that very bizarre but yeah, some jobs have been known to pay more than 20 like mcdonalds. But i think that is before taxes.

You can’t compare bigger countries to Switzerland, which is a small country. America and other bigger countries have way more people to sell to. Go to Otto’s, you can save some money there. A lot of fruit and vegetables are imported, that’s why they are more expensive. People coming from poorer countries are naturally going to think everything is expensive, the cost of living is all relative to what you earn.

Thats how real prices should be when everyone who works to get that product on the shelf is paid properly.

Furthermore, when animals are taken care of and food is produced with a certain standard, there is a price to pay for all of these so if you live and earn in Switzerland and want to continue to enjoy these benefits, Shop in Switzerland .

I was expecting really high prices, but it looks fine. Quite similar to Japan, where I live now. I think Colgate and Head & Shoulders is actually more expensive in Japan (if you manage to find it - recently I paid around 10 USD for tooth paste... ). Blueberries are around 8-12 USD I think. Some of the nice meat from Europe that is sold in Japan is muuuuuch more expensive, so I am super excited to be back in Europe. I am very interested in those videos as my company allowed my transfer to our Switzerland office. My salary for the exact same position will go up 30-40%, so I was expecting much higher prices.

Personally, I think prices are reasonable if one works and earns within the country and spend there. And same with almost all other countries. Except for countries like US who are self-reliant which produces almost all products or materials, products prices are expected to be lower. As learned from other video, geographical location of Switzerland, makes it difficult for the country to produce its own. It's why, products being sold there are mostly imported. (Open for correction).

Hi Lyka, I'm a fellow Filipino, just wondering how to get there and take a study? I mean do you have any idea about the process and stuff? Thanks!

[@LykaKrystle]

How to get here...hmmm. First you need to find a university here or a Fachhochschule that is English and that coincides with your previous degree. And then you apply to the school. When you get accepted, you then apply for the student visa. ☺️

[@GermanizedMong]

Good they allowed you to film inside. Nakakalula ang prices!

[@LykaKrystle]

Germanized Mong di nga allowed, pero pinost ko pa rin!

[@AnnePachecoMercado]

[@LykaKrystle]

I will create more Swiss related videos like "meals under 10 francs", "typical Swiss breakfast", and more places in Switzerland.

[@LykaKrystle]

If you’re interested in learning more about Switzerland (e.g. finding work here, how expensive is it here, or if you’re planning move here after the pandemic) I made a whole playlist about it. kzbin.info/aero/PLTZcyljy_o2Z4c67S_L-PQ1K6Ct31dTVB

Hi Ms. Lyka glad I found your video! I was planning to visit switzerland... How much do you think I need to prepare for a 10 days visit? PH

[@LykaKrystle]

It really depends where you eat and what you do.

[@kusumsharma4734]

[@xuzm]

Hello po, ano po yung pinapart time work mo djan if you dont mind me asking. I was able to visit Lugano last year in the summer, it was such a beautiful, nice and clean city. Hope to explore more of Switzerland once this virus thing will be fixed.

[@LykaKrystle]

I did dog sitting, online typing jobs, just random stuff basically ☺️😅👍

[@alexcidjavillonar7973]

Do you filipino stores there

[@LykaKrystle]

We do but just one big official one.

[@EdaNavarra]

Hello babe Lyka! Is it possible ba na makaapply ng work ang mga tourist jan?

[@LykaKrystle]

I think it all depends what you want as a job. But dapat talaga mag apply muna sa mga jobs, when they say yes na makaka work ka dito, then ka pa mag tourist para masanay ka dito and then they give you the work permit.

[@genevievegarcia1572]

Switzerland is beautiful too! But the country being expensive is not because people are making a lot (lol!). First, yearly salary adjustment is based on inflation rate and needs of people. Second, products are expensive because most of it are imports from EU countries, Switzerland isnt part of the EU, and its a landlock mountainous country. Most is imported from EU countries because Switzerland can't produce it, also it will take so much paperwork and several haulage to get it there which makes it expensive.

[@LykaKrystle]

They are but for me, it just gets expensive since i don’t really have a full time job yet.

[@Bensway7]

sweets are not that expensive we are getting close to that but not quite yet in pricing where i am from- poor country and we dont even make 10 percent what swiss make probably, but meat is just wtf you probably even look at worst price quality ratio places because i think even for swiss those prices were high

[@LykaKrystle]

And the cost of living here is expensive too.

[@onnkatm]

I just want to know if Switzerland has takis or cheetos in supermarket

[@LykaKrystle]

There are some specialty stores that sell it but no, unfortunately…they don’t sell it everywhere here. I wish tho.

[@AyoCoat]

This is not bad at all

[@LykaKrystle]

www.numbeo.com/cost-of-living/country_result.jsp?country=Switzerland more prices here.

[@ryanlevron1972]

U.S. here... our prices aren't far off from yours..... The difference is a full time income.. that matters alot

[@LykaKrystle]

You have to keep in mind that when I filmed this, I lived a bit far from the city center. So this is the locals price. And if we say, I were to do groceries in the city center. The prices would higher but of course, they would be bio or some type of organic food stuff.

[@ryanlevron1972]

@@LykaKrystle I understand....

[@wanderung7376]

sometimes we went to Germany to buy some groceries in Waldshut.one hundred euros it goes a long with 5 bags of groceries. When I buy 1 hundr frcs in Megros I got 2 bags of groceries.. and the rent of apartment so expensive especially in kloten.

[@abcdefg_49500]

May attic apartment niyo? 😍Omg!!! I have an idea on your next video!!! Room tour!!! 😍😍😍

[@LykaKrystle]

Yung building ng apartment ang may attic.. hindi mismong apartment namin.

[@LykaKrystle]

And I was planning to do that video pero ewan ko kailan, ang kalat pa apartment namin. :( di pa kasi tapos renovations ng landlord eh. Yung storage room sa baba di pa tapos so mga Christmas decor, mga stuff na di namin gina gamit nasa apartment lang, it’s just laying around everywhere

[@luisantoniotejada1225]

Can i butt in Lyka. Sorry darling, so excited i saw your vlog. It is so full of info. I am a single senior guy who happens to have an EU passport out of spain. All these years been window shopping for a European country to establish a life. I chose switzerland, lugano in particular. Italian should be much easier to learn since we pinoys have spanish. I know its expensive but if i can find a group of my kababayans. It will be easier. Maybe my budget for 3 months ma extend until i find a job. Are there pinoys in Lugano?

[@joanmac7410]

Girl i just discovered ur channel. Been wanting to start a channel i live in geneva swiss- france border. Where do u live in swiss ?

[@LykaKrystle]

Hello! Nice to meet you Joan. And you’ll start soon? ☺️ that’s cool. And I am in the north side of Switzerland ☺️ and sorry, I won’t give you my address 😂☺️ it’s too public in YT.

[@joanmac7410]

@@LykaKrystle not really sure when i'll start my channel. And i understand ur not able to give ur address i just got excited that maybe u also live in Geneva or nearby. Good luck on ur channel :)

[@LykaKrystle]

Ohh you should plan a lot first before you start ☺️ also, yeah. I don’t think giving my address to strangers is good 😂 also naah, Geneva is maybe 2 hours by train.

[@andisuboholano1942]

Denner is more cheaper.

[@LykaKrystle]

Yeah and did you know, Migros owns Denner?

[@renovantm125]

Just to be fair, it's just as high also in Paris... And I don't earn a salary like in Switzerland

[@LykaKrystle]

Yes it is as high but Paris is city center, this is in-the-middle-nowhere-Switzerland, the city area has way higher prices that match up to their cost of living. And as I mentioned in my video, I only have a part time job and at the moment, I am back in school so “Switzerlands salary” has nothing to do with me that’s why I think it is expensive here.

[@renovantm125]

@@LykaKrystle Yes that's true that for the middle of nowhere it's expensive. Is it because there are not enough people in your city so the price is still high so the shop doesn't bankrupt ? Sometimes in very small village in France it's the same. The price is high because there are not enough people to lower prices

[@LykaKrystle]

No, it’s not the case. It’s the standard grocery prices and the things I showed weren’t even bio, the bio ones are waaay more expensive.

[@carlosevilla3179]

Wow! I wish i can go there someday. It's expensive.

[@LykaKrystle]

☺️👍

[@Bensway7]

its really not that expensive most prices are same in my country and we earn like 10x less salary - lithuania

[@Bensway7]

@@LykaKrystle next come to lithuania you will be impressed we have very similiar prices except we dont have too much ekological meat, but overall prices are pretty much same but ask salaries of people we earn usually 10x less :DDDDD

[@LykaKrystle]

But is the rent there high as well? In Switzerland, rent is around 1300 for two people. And insurance is around 300chf per person. It’s not just groceries here that is expensive, it’s just one aspect
