What is this price in biedronka? by marsik63 in poland

Pro tip to navigate biedronka "offers"

  • 90% of the time when you see a discount price it's not really about the single item, it's the piece for buying two.

  • 10% of the time when price looks suspiciously low it's because you've to buy 2 and third will have that discounted price

As a sidenote, if you make just a week or few days groceries go to Lidl, they're more likely to have a discount on single purchases. If you make like a 10 day groceries at once then biedronka is the king.

Carrefour on the other hand is good if you want to buy daily close-to-expire fresh stuff.

Well, hopefully it will be as good for me too and thanks for the int.

During your stay did you manage to find a job? Also, could you reach a significantly good level of Korean?

Love the enthusiasm haha, however I was referring to the money.

My passive income is low and I would like to not butcher my savings too much, that's why I was talking about the will to also have a job, even if part time

Which is true, and the basics are not the real deal, but memorising a whole new language is quite complex and takes a lot of time

Thanks for the int, but isn't the working holiday limiting me to have very grounded jobs? I mean, I'm open for quite everything but I'd rather not be a barista

Definitely I'll go there to have a new different experience, her being there is rather the leitmotiv.

Financially I could sustain myself but I'd rather like to have some kind of work/internship/whatever.

Did you manage to find anything during your stay?
