Different Products

Day in Saarbrüken

German 100 Homework

The assignment was to find three products that one couldn't buy in the USA

Now, I know Vodafone might seem like a weird choice, but I picked it because I feel like it illustrates still how even in this global economy there are still differences even with more modern products, like with social media.

This may seem like a kindle, but I can assure you it isn't, or at least not in the way one from the USA would expect. For one this one has a different name, and second this one is about as big as an iphone 5s. As a result I found it quite unusual.

Finally, this is some sort of tea from a pharmacy, called an apothecary in Germany. I took a picture of this not only for the homework but to also remind me about how different overall the pharmacy was. It was quite large, impeccable in design and cleanliness, and kept itself well organized. The only thing Rite Aid might even come close to having on this store was that Rite Aid also serves as a convenience store, which even that might be debatable as a benefit or not.
