Let's visit the supermarket! i.e. everything is big in Korea!

Today we (me and Polish girls) and a few local girls went to E-mart (I've found the Korean name, it's: 이마트), which is like the biggest shop I have ever been to. It's also one of the biggest in Korea. It has two floors and it sells variety of products, from fruits and sweets to clothes and electronic devices. And everything is really big! I mean it's a retail shop but it seems like a wholesale. You can e.g. buy like 10 kg of rice, 800-gram bottle of schampoo (which I believe is like 800 ml, the average in Poland is 250 ml), package of 30 pieces of toilet paper - cause 10 is not enought.
But what I really enjoyed apart from the range choice of fruits was the sushi! I love sushi. And this shop was like a sushi paradise for me :) They were selling lots of nigiri sets and nigiri single pieces. I was in shock to learn that it cost only 480 KRW (which is actually about 1,21 PLN - cheaper than chewing gum). Cool, isn't it?


Pictures below :)
Stay tuned.
