"Fiscally conservative socialism" in Canada has made them richer than Americans

Frankfurt. Last year I paid 3.5 euros for a 16 oz bottle. I did not have the time or need to buy 24 cases at some warehouse. What does a single can of Coke cost at corner food market in London?

Our currencies are at parity because we are now a socialist country. Or so the wing nuts insist.

Have a good time in Frankfurt, so where did you have "the privilege of sampling $5 a can Coke"? Cans in Europe are 330ml which I think is about 12 oz.

As I said in my first post the converted price for a single can near to me is about 75 cents, I would guess you would pay more at some places and unthinking tourists get ripped off all over the world. I will ask my daughter what the price is at her "corner food market" in London but I doubt it is much different as the major supermarkets also have small local stores selling a smaller range but at the same prices as their big stores and local family run places have to compete.
