A man from Schleswig-Holstein posted a 22-year-old receipt on Facebook showing food prices from 2002. Back then you could buy a bag of potatoes for the equivalent of just 1.50 euros, whereas today you have to spend up to four euros for it.
In the Rewe market, the current price for two kilos of potatoes is 2.79 euros - and is therefore almost four times as expensive as it was 22 years ago. Today it is rare for a receipt with 16 items to show less than 10 euros.9.33 euros for 16 products – Lidl receipt from 2002 causes astonishment.
