$10 = €9.13 buys me
- 6.3 litres of 95 octane petrol
- three sandwitches for lunch from the supermarket

- 10 x 0.33 l cans of cheap lager
- district heating for one day for our house in February
- a Big Mac meal and a coffee
- cat food for ten days
Definitely sounds like your country is a little more expensive on some points - 10$ for 1 day of heating? Wow. I pay a 130 euro advance per month for heating/cooling for a two-person household but get some of that back at the end of the year because most won't be used :-)
What does a movie ticket for an adult cost?
That's for our house. The total heated area is about 200 m2. And February is the second most expensive month of the year. In the summer, the heating costs are much smaller. I have no national stats at hand and average figures wouldn't be very useful anyway because people live in very different types of buildings and their living space varies a lot.
On average, the heating costs of our house are about €170 per month. Our winters are something else compare to Dutch winters.
A movie ticket for an adult costs about $12 or thereabouts.
Yes - our winters are totally different. Also how stuff is priced is very different. I was in France once and because it was a cold week and we used their heating on electricity we paid like 100 euros for the week because they had 'high priced hours' or something crazy like that :-)
