Our house

the mall near our house (10 minutes by car)

You have to put money in the cart to use it but you    
 get your money back when you put it away.

They have bread in wooden crates unpackaged so you can get however many you want, they also have packaged bread.

(tichinky)      They have different kinds of pretzels like, cheese, onion, and potato, as well as
normal  pretzels. They may sound gross but they’re actually quite good.

more pretzels: Left - onion and Right - potato

They have milk and juice in one liter cardboard boxes

That is not syrup you put on your pancakes that is fruit flavored syrup to flavor your water with.

Yup, that is all salami and pepperoni, they have pepper salami, sliced salami, non-sliced salami,
you name it, they have it.

They have spices stored in small green paper bags.           


They have grocery stores in the malls...this is the mall near our house.

 A castle five minutes from our house in a big park.( It is actually bigger than this  but I could not get it all in the picture).
