Oulu Best (Worst) Buy

The "Handbook For Survival in Finland" authored by Annikki and Jacob Matthan in 1994 after 10 years of research of life in Finland created a "game" to live well in Finland with a nominal salary. The system helped beat yearly inflation every year. This Blog shows how the system is still valid even in 2008!

Good buys at Tokmani today

Visit Tokmani today.

In Oulu there are three Tokmanis. The one near the University at Kaijonharju and the one on the south side of the city at Jukolantie have foodstuffs as well as hardware, clothes, etc. The one at Topila only has non food products.

I got two XL sweaters for just € 10. I also got two winter long johns also for € 10. There were also cotton long johns at just € 1 per piece, but unfortunately they did not have my size.

On the food front butter was just € 1.69 for half a kg, both normal salt and with extra salt. Oven ready chicken pieces, spiced, is available at just € 0.99 per kg.

The oranges are still only € 0.99 per kg at Citymarket. Fresh cucumber is also just 0.99 per kg.
