Swiss Family Goes On Shopping Tour In Bangalore 🇮🇳 Cost Of Living

So the essential question people always ask is how much do things cost in India. Or any other country. Well, I started a new series that talks about it. Of course supermarkets are always more expensive than markets but still, it will give you a certain idea about the prices of groceries and it is pretty general for a country. Let's see what the things cost around here in one of the tech areas of Bangalore.

I'm a Malaysian, I've lived in Bangalore for almost 5 years while doing my Medical Degree (MBBS) at MS Ramaiah Med. College (Malaysia-India collaboration program) way back in 2008 to 2012... from my experience... electronics and household items made from plastic - are more expensive than in Malaysia... however... metal cook wares and food items (local food items) are cheaper than Malaysia... I remembered during my undergraduate years there - a bottle of pepsi (200ml) only cost 15 rupees which was around 1 Malaysian Ringgit (1 MYR = 15 INR = 0.33 USD)... and a plate of Chicken Briyani was only around 75 rupees (5 MYR)... in short, there are cheaper things in India compared to Malaysia, vice versa (electronics are cheaper in Malaysia)...

[@yvesthesleeve]

Yes I see it that way too

[@muhd7144]

Apparently chocolate products (chocolate bars, chocolate drinks, etc) are also significantly more expensive in India than in Malaysia. There are stores in Masjid India area of Kuala Lumpur that specialise in those products and their main clients are Indian tourists and Indian migrant workers returning home.

[@keangwooichoo6138]

​@muhd7144 China tourists who spoke to me also bought a lot of chocolates from malaysia. I asked why. They told me apparently in China 70% is sugar, 30% cocoa. Here they told me 30% sugar 70% cocoa.

[@muhd7144]

@@keangwooichoo6138 In other words, just as in India, chocolate weight for weight is more expensive in China than in Malaysia. Thanks for the info.

I noticed that paper bags are used instead of plastic bags. A big applause to India. Well, thanks a bunch for that supermarket tour, showing us goods from aisle to aisle. Well, what a day of grocery shopping !! 👍👏🫰

[@yvesthesleeve]

Yes true, I was actually surprised

[@TheSanthalVlogger]

Almost every supermarket paper bags & cloth bags are used instead of plastic bags. Plastic bags should be limited even in road side vendors , generally they use polythene abundantly.

Instead of white sugar you can add jaggery powder or Palm jaggery syrup to curd to make your healthy dessert. Honey doesn’t mix well and you will need a lot of it.

[@yvesthesleeve]

Yes I was thinking that

There are different hyper markets in India and in Bangalore catering to different customer needs. You can find imported Swis, French and Australian, Newziland cheese imported. You can find different salad leaves that are common in EU. You can order organic veggies as well far cheaper than EU. You can order and get things in 10mins to 25mins using blinkit and zepto apps. If you need different types of grocery malls for particular needs such aa for malls that shelf imported cookies, cheese and pastas for a change around your area of stay, you may ask me in reply.

While stores selling alcohol might have higher profit margins on alcoholic beverages, they could also face additional costs and regulations related to alcohol sales, such as licensing fees, compliance requirements, and liability risks. On the other hand, stores without alcohol may have lower overhead costs and potentially appeal to a wider customer base, including those who prefer not to purchase alcohol. Thus, the profitability of each type of store depends on balancing these factors and catering to the preferences and needs of the local community.

[@yvesthesleeve]

True that

You can buy maida alternate flours online which are much healthier & millet biscuits & sugar free biscuits online

Hi Moonshine Eid Mubarak to you and Family❤. At the end of Ramadan today we are celebrating Eid ul Fitar across the world. Eid ul-Fitr is indeed a joyous occasion, marking the end of Ramadan, a month of fasting, prayer, and reflection. On this day, Muslims feel a profound sense of gratitude, happiness, and unity as they gather with family and friends to celebrate. There's a palpable feeling of love, compassion, and generosity, as people reach out to one another, exchange gifts, share meals, and offer prayers together. It's a time of forgiveness, reconciliation, and strengthening bonds with human beings. Overall, the prevailing sentiment is one of peace, harmony, and deep spiritual fulfillment.❤

[@yvesthesleeve]

You know what... If you want juices in India, just buy fruits and take out its juice yourself at home 😅 Or buy it from fruit sellers... who make fresh fruit juices infront of your eyes. No sugar added 💯 Indian summer drinks are much healthier. I personally love homemade Lassi, Buttermilk or Ber fruit juice (made at home). Indian spicy mixtures or snacks are better because they don't contain sugar in it. Indian products are not that high on sugar level like America btw...but still it's better to be cautious and eat such things in limit. For Sugar, palm sugar or jaggery are very famous alternatives in Indian homes. For oil, mustard oil, ghee are much healthier. Avoid Maida (Refined flour) on regular basis... Whole wheat flours are much better...i.e. for Rotis or Chapatis.

She went in the 80s if I'm not mistaken.
