  • I take you to Cheers, Vietnam’s cheapest convenient store chain, and show you everything that I got for only $12. This Cheers store is located in District 1, Saigon, Vietnam, right next to the famous Bui Vien Walking Street. If you’re traveling to Ho Chi Minh City or thinking about moving to Vietnam, check out this video so you know where to do some affordable shopping while you’re here!
    This video is packed with information about the cost of items and the cost of living here in Vietnam. Convenient stores like this Cheers are a great place to do some affordable convenient store shopping here in the city center of Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City).
    I also show you some of the unique items that you wouldn’t typically find in an American convenient store, such as dried stingray.
    Cheers is not the only convenient store in Vietnam, but after living in this country for quite a long time, I’ve noticed that it is the cheapest place to get your everyday essential goods. Other convenient store options in Ho Chi Minh City include: Circle K, Family Mart, GS 25, 7-11, and B-Mart.
    If you're thinking about moving to Vietnam or HCMC, or if you're just planning a trip, I hope this video helps you understand more about the cost of specific items, the overall cost of living, and perhaps save you some money!

    Compared to convenient stores in America, everything in a Vietnamese convenient store is much cheaper. For $12 (288,000 VND) I was able to buy:
    -shampoo
    -hand soap
    -nail clippers
    -2 bottles of green tea
    -2 large bottles of water
    -a bottle of Fuze Tea
    -and a big box of crackers
    If I had to estimate what this would cost in America, I would say it would be around $35 (I could be wrong; feel free to leave a comment if you think this number is off target).
    I’m interested to hear how the items at this convenient store compare to convenient stores where you are from. Leave a comment and let me know which items are different than what you would find at your local shop, and let me know how the prices compare as well!
    Thanks for watching! I hope you enjoyed the video.

    Interesting...but seems like they could have carried more stuff as the store was big enough with lots of extra space yet. If I were them, I'd put the smaller items that are locked up in the front (behind the cashier or under a glass display) so they can just pull it out when the customer wants it.

    Milk in cartons which are not refrigerated have been heat treated. As long as you don't open it, you can keep it for a couple of months. It is called UHT milk here in the UK, Ultra High Temperature. In France it is called lait stérélisé, sterilised milk, which is the same thing.

    Very interesting, thanks for showing this. You're at the cheapest *convenience* store chain, but are there supermarket-type places where these items are even less expensive / can be purchased in bulk? I assume no Costco warehouse stores in Saigon....

      Cheers I'm glad you like it! If I go to the Co-op, Emart, or Lotte Mart supermarkets you can usually find cheaper prices by buying in bulk. They don't have costco but you can buy in bulk at these supermarkets.

    Good video. I’ll check the store out. You might want to check mega mart in district two. It’s similar to Costco.I go there every week.

    Do they charge CRV over there?

    • @BigTimeBentley
      @BigTimeBentley  Год назад

      I'm not sure. Any taxes and fees are already included in the price shown to you while you're shopping. So when I see the bottle of water is 10,000 in the water section, I pay 10,000 at the register. I think there may be some tax, and could possibly be CRV, but those costs are already calculated into the price you're shown.
