Bad Terry
Speaking of Danube supermarket, its an unusual supermarket when it comes to prices. Some items there are bargains (good Terry) whilst some are outrageous (bad Terry).
35 SAR (USD 9) for one cucumber?! Is it made out of emeralds? Can you smoke it? What's the deal? I saw some Saudis buying them and I wondered whether I was surrounded by Princes and Princesses doing their supermarket shopping. Who else would pay that much for one cucumber?! We were at Euromarche later the same day and you could buy 8 chicken wings for 2.5 SAR. That's US 8 cents per wing. So for the price of 1 Danube cucumber you could have 112 Euromarche chicken wings.
Frankly, that sort of price is an affront to the chicken. Imagine dying and having your arms sold for only 16c.
Talk about adding insult to injury.

I never heard of this supermarket in Riyadh!
if you want a cheap and freash vigitales, with exaotic buying and negotiating experiance, you should go to "Otaygah". The Riyadh's largest local farmers market. ((Tip: don't forget your camera!))
i'm really suprised you guys know about places such as otaygah.. :)
i dont recommend it though...maybe you go and take lots of pictures then pass by Panda or Othaim and get your vigitables three :)
Hi,
I shop in Danube supermarket in Jeddah.. in all big supermarkets you will find a part of the vegetable section that is Very expensive because it's would be the part that displays imported American products..(i usually skip that part unless i'm looking for something specific unavailable otherwise) but you will find most these product also available in a reasonable price (locally grown or imported from counties other than the US)
Also, are you sure that the price was per cucumber?? usually supermarkets in Saudi Arabia display the price per Kilo.
In fact other than not being part of the family of original replica watches in uk , your replica Breitling is the same in all other categories. The Breitling Watch Company was established in 1884 in the Jura Mountains of Switzerland. The Breitling Chronomat Evolution is one of their newest watches and epitomizes its accuracy in timekeeping.
