A woman has shared a video of the things she found in a Spanish supermarket, and she was left gobsmacked by one thing in particular – and it’s something that’s very rare in the UK
Sitting in the sun all day and then quenching your thirst with a chilled Fanta Lemon or sharing a packet of Lays is an elite feeling. However, if you’re landing in the early hours after a late-night flight, the panic might set in about whether you’ll be able to grab snacks and water before morning arrives. The last thing you want is a morning headache.
Fear not if Spain is your destination, as one lady has highlighted that certain supermarkets there keep their doors open until the early morning, which is quite rare back in the UK. Florence Grace highlighted her surprise in her video caption, “Still open at one am?! Spanish supermarkets are the best,” and showcased some tempting items she encountered during her visit.
She enthused over the “colour of this Sunny D,” and playfully remarked, “you’re not in Spain unless you get this,” while showing off a jar of Chovi Allioli.
Delving into further exclusive finds, Florence revealed some “biscuit chocolates” reminiscent of Maltesers and described an Oreo milkshake she tasted as “very sickly”.
She also exposed the bargain finds, such as a “mini paella” for under three euros and even a full bottle of sangria for less than two euros.
Florence couldn’t help but giggle as she pointed out the possibility of buying a carton of wine for merely 99 cents, revealing that it contained a whole litre of booze.
Florence was all praises as she stood by the fresh orange juice machine in a Spanish shop, exclaiming, “This is the best thing about Spanish shops,” where customers can freshly squeeze their juice on the spot to ensure its freshness.
As she explored further, Florence marvelled at the frozen lemonades and gestured to a dessert, saying: “You can get a whole cake.”
She pointed out that there’s no need for an all-inclusive resort when you can easily grab these treats from local supermarkets.
“You can get a whole big bag of muffins,” she effused, while perusing the Milka chocolate and chorizo, which were on offer for a mere two euros.
“In Spain, you can get a tub of carrots and a tub of guacamole,” she clarified, showcasing the range of salad options ideal for a barbecue with loved ones.
She then scoped out the crisps aisle, drawing attention to “ketchup flavour” varieties before moving on to an ample bag of churros.
Highlighting the affordability of beverages, Florence noted, “I forget how cheap the alcohol is here,” as she compared the cost of a single can of San Miguel at 73 cents to bubble tea priced at four euros and 50 cents, a striking contrast for Brits.
“This protein coffee is 20g of protein and zero sugar. What is it made of then?” she pondered aloud. Wrapping up her video, she concluded with enthusiasm “they do the best sweets in Spain”.
Moreover, the convenience of late-night shopping means no cravings have to go unaddressed during your holiday.
