My friend in Germany sent this to me. The price is €0.75 per can after a discount using the grocery’s app.

I looked up the price locally for me (Washington state, hence the asterisk) at the Kroger-affiliated Fred Meyer, and it was on sale for $23 for a 24 pack of Budweiser. That boils down to €0.81 per can.

*In the title was to acknowledge that Washington state is expensive and I’m sure elsewhere in the country you could find a better deal. But for my little corner of the country, the title holds true.

**My fellow continent-dweller pointed out that our 12oz beers are actually 355ml, and the 330ml can is smaller. Proportionally that brings the price down to exactly €0.75 per can from my benchmark. Add that to a TIL for me.

    Just did a quick look in Alberta, Canada. Best price I could find was $26.99/15, or $1.80/can. That converts to €1.11 per can.

    Cans are 355ml though, instead of the German 330ml.

    EDIT Cans in the US are probably 355ml as well. If they were scaled down to 330ml, the price would be…

    €0.75. Same as Germany.

      330ml would be €1.03 in your example.

      Also, as far as I know Germany already has the sales tax included in the retail prices that are shown.

      I don’t know how Canada does taxes in advertised peicing, but if you were looking up USA pricing, make sure to calculate the tax into it, because the advertised price in that german grocery is including taxes.
