Moscow Discount Mall Under SANCTIONS

maybe for moscow idk how about the rest of Russia

[@Mike-xn8yt]

Expensive for me but my daughter would probably disagree.

[@alexeyivanov7013]

Real prices are usually in-between the Demix price, and the discount price. But, if You want quality wear, we usually say "we are not so rich as to buy cheap goods".

Hey Jim. Привет из Колорадо, США. Цены на первые туфли были дорогими из-за скидки. Спортивная экипировка была дешевой, а куртка Columbia - по справедливой цене. Ваши видео фантастические, и ваши перспективы вдохновляют меня продолжать изучать русский язык.

[@sergiyvyshnyakovlytvynenko1881]

Hi Jim!It’s very interesting to watch your channel from Scotland.I think the prices are just ok,and I really don’t care about the brands anymore.As example brands like Super dry or Ted Baker started to make way worse clothes. And I personally spent around 200£ on shoes in the last 2 years and can say they don’t last for long. That stock of shoes at discount centre looks pretty good I think that shoes can be worn for more than a year.

I don't eat fast food but at least it would have to be better in Russia for the fact gmo's are illegal.

Привет❤. У всех иностранцев очень похожие видео про Москву. Метро, магазины, улицы... Но почему-то никто не освещает культурные мероприятия 🤷‍♀️. Например, в Москве 5 и 6 февраля в Большом Кремлёвском дворце будет премьера масштабной рок- оперы "Князь Владимир". Вот бы кто-то посетил и сделал видео: как всё организовано, уровень безопасности, публика, сама опера. Ходят слухи, что может присутствовать даже В. В. Путин. Но в любом случае будет зрелищно: реквизит, костюмы, музыка.

[@PiRoman-333]

Я думаю, на такое мероприятие в Кремлёвском дворце и цены будут соответствующие. Это не для простых смертных.

[@vladimirafaunov7050]

When you go into these shops, I see you looking in the current season's lines, which are usually not discounted much. They usually have separate stands or sections of former season's lines with discounts or special discounted items isles with a xx% discount sings over them. So you most likely haven't seen the actual dicsounted items in some of the shops you've visited. You can actually get some 40 to 50% discounts, though rarely more. In general I haven't EVER seen 99% American style discounts in Russia, you're not gonna get any $100 items at $1, more likely a $100 winter coat at $55 during summer when it's sizzling hot outside.

In Russia, some cunning sellers open ordinary stores in outlet centers, it is not regulated in any way. Such a store in the video is Under Armor, it was not a discount store. We also have a practice of displaying current collections together with discounted collections, but without discounts, and the store is the same. So you have to choose more picky.

[@icolky5272]

Obviously it won’t be easy, but Russia could be made stronger in the long run by these sanctions. Opportunity economy! The only problem is a demand for western goods snd what can’t be made in country. Copy brands with decent marketing can get around the first. The second is a matter of holding out whilst exchange rate isn’t good. Living standards and community cohesion are obliterated in the UK and a lot of Western Europe. The possible reward of the potential massively better living down the road if Putin’s decree and helps make up any skills need. You want a life like people did here till Blair’s betrayal without all the DEI nonsense I’d go for it.

Not a true metric of sanctions, just because there's items for sale = does not translate to items sold, profit made and tax back to central Gov.
