Malmø much more expensive than here. We go to Puttgarten in Germany for bulk buying beer - otherwise the supermarkets in Denmark are cheap enough for regular use.Vausey wrote:
I thought it worked the other way round? All the Danes get their booze from Malmo and bring it back to Copenhagen do they not??

German beer much better than any scandy brewed beer, as well! (only natural ingredients by law!).MeeTa wrote:

Main prob is, the cans or bottles have no return code, so you can't use them in the supermarket return machines here. Meaning I have to break the law, by throwing them in the rubbish bin, instead of recycling them!
Fukkit tho! It's cheap

Re: Pre season tour update...
don't think we have these here. when we took them to the supermarket they were just big bins with holes in. we actually get most recycling collected though these days :thup:MeeTa wrote:

Re: Pre season tour update...
All bottles and cans here have a bar code, specifically for Danish containers of beverages. We pay 1 to 3 kroner deposit money, wen we buy them, depending on capacity. When empty, these are returned to the supermarkets via a machine which then gives you a receipt for amount of bottles/cans returned. You take that to the cash desk and the deposit is returned.LUFCRACE wrote:

Non Danish bottles and cans are rejected, as they don't have he Danish bar code. Meaning I have to spend money to take them to the nearest council dump - or slyly drop them in the rubbish bin.

It depends on where you are in the world. In Europe, elk refers to Alces alces, which is known as the moose in North America.
Reindeer and caribou are the same animal, Rangifer tarandus, but reindeer is generally used in Europe
Elk is a relative of the moose but rarely found in Scandinavia, except in Lapland bordering on Russia.
No moose in Norway then.
