    In the 61st episode of "Real Russia" we have been inside of the big supermarket in Ufa, the capital of Bashkortostan Republic of Russia.
    But in this video we are getting inside of so called "neighborhood store". This is a kind of food and everyday products stores located in a massive living districts for a quick access of it's citizens.
    We have visited one of DIXY stores at Rustaveli Street in Moscow, not far from "Dmitrovskaya" Metro Station where we live.
    DIXY is one of Russia's leading retailers of foods and everyday products with almost 200 stores in Moscow.
    And one special things about DIXY is a full disclosure policy for filming. You don't have to ask anyone to film inside of their stores. In their streets doors they have a stickers with a friendly image of the camera and caption: "You can [film] here".
    But the main idea of this episode is to show where people in Russia make shopping if they won't go far and up-to-date for March, 2014 prices for the most popular products in Moscow.

      @Robert because you are here for a reason. If you are not feeling connection and purpose of your life, then something inside is blocking you (trauma and beliefs generally). Life unfolds according to what we already have inside. And it can be incredible. There are ways to work through blocks. One of them is Theta healing. Look it up and good luck! 🤗
      PS I hope you will feel better soon. And God/universe loves you. However cheesy that sounds...

    • @MisterMichaelVReyes
      @MisterMichaelVReyes 4 роки тому +1

      Commenting late, but one of the reasons why coffee is becoming super expensive is because most of the farmers are having to deal with mold known as coffee rust. Also, deforestation, climate change, and soil quality is playing a huge part as well. In about a decade, coffee will be 700x the cost it is now.

    ***** Hey guys, I recognize a lot of the same brands of products at your store that we find in our local grocery stores. That surprised me some. It resembles some of the smaller groceries here in many ways. Biggest difference I noticed is that the cashier is allowed to sit down, which is great. I don't recall seeing that here. Really glad they have a "camera friendly" policy!
    Warmest greetings from USA!!

      I really do not know why this practice exists. I suspect it is about presenting an enthusiastic appearance to customers. All I know is that it is not common practice in the USA. I think it should be, because standing all day in one spot is very difficult.

    I noticed many brands that we see here in the US: Lays, Pringles, etc. Undoubtedly every store in Russia is going to sell Coke and Pepsi as well.
    One major distributor of foods and household items (cleaning supplies, etc.) is based right here in Cincinnati, and is known as P&G (Proctor and Gamble). They got their start back in the 1800's with soap, and have since grown to become a massive distributor handling such items as the Pringles you showed in your video.
    If I were to read the fine print on everything found inside a typical American store, a considerable portion (maybe 10 - 20%) would be under the P&G company brand. This is a massive amount to come from a single source.

      ***** But if you look in a typically American grocery store, there are so many European brands. I wouldn't be surprised if most Americans don't know what products are from an American company or from an European company. It's the same over here. Most Germans probably think that "Kraft" and "Ferrero" are German companies. I have seen a video where an American couple in a french hypermarket was astonished that they sell Axe deodorants. They didn't know that this is a European product.

      This video is about 3 years old. That same food in Russia today would cost about $15-20 USD or around $18-25 CAD.

      hi Sergey, I'm going to subscribe and like every video just to pay for this one, it's awesome. I also wonder if you have a video about wages because that is like the other half of the equation. For example I am a welder in canada and have a paycheck every two weeks ( 80 hours work ) of $1700

    Wow very informative! It is interesting that the cashiers are sitting. I’m from Texas, and usually the cashiers stand. There’s a store here called Aldi’s (it’s European but I don’t know which country) and the cashiers sit and customers have to bring their own bags. I looks comfortable to sit. It is so cool to see this. Great video!
