Ich weiß also, dass alles in Norwegen für das ansonsten großartige Land, das es ist, unglaublich teuer ist.
Ich habe meiner besten Freundin 2266 NOK geschickt, um ihr und ihren beiden Schwestern Getränke für Silvester in Oslo zu kaufen, und das waren jeweils zwei Getränke. In anderen Hauptstädten wären das jeweils drei bis vier Drinks. 😅
Das Essen ist teuer, besonders wenn man unter Zöliakie leidet, und anscheinend kann es 4.000 NOK für rohes Hähnchenroulette in einem Lokal namens Fly Chicken kosten (ich gehe davon aus, dass es Fliegen in der Küche gibt. 🤔)
Ich weiß, dass es noch viele andere Beispiele gibt, aber das sind nur einige. Wie auch immer, ich war wirklich überrascht, als ich mir ein Geschäft in Vestfold angesehen habe, und ich habe das Einzige gefunden, für das man seinen Erstgeborenen nicht verkaufen darf:
Garn!
Wie kommt es also, dass Garn so billig ist? Ist es die norwegische Strickmafia? Liegt es nur an der Preisgestaltung in diesem Bereich von Vestfold? Was gibt es?

There’s no way 4 drinks was 2266, your best friend probably lied to you.
I knit a lot and yarn is expensive. A regular sweater is often 700-900 in regular yarn, not the expensive or fancy kind.
>I sent my best friend 2266 NOK to buy her and her two sisters drinks for NYE in Oslo, and that was two drinks each.
you got played
That would cover more drinks than that unless they went for luxury cocktails at a very fancy place, and spending 4k at fly chicken should feed a football team.
Ball of yarn for 55,- is a kidney? I thought that’s a pretty fair price depending on the length.
The Norwegian knitting Mafia 😉 we have such a big selection of yarn brands, some a bit pricey others quite cheap, so the most expensive ones can’t price themselves too high or else they can’t be in competition with the cheaper ones. And for some yarntypes there are no real difference between the cheap and the pricey one, one is not better than the other.
I’m a knitter myself, and use both cheap and pricey yarn, depending on what I’m knitting.
How fat are your friends – spending 4000NOK in Fly Chicken? That’s like 300 chicken wings.
377 NOK for a drink? 4000 NOK for a chicken? Oslo is expensive af but you’re getting ripped off dude
Your friend is greatly exaggerating.
Here is the menu for Fly Chicken. https://flychicken.no/menu
There is nothing on it that costs 4000kr.
In Norwqa (almost) everybody knits, and there are any places to get relatively cheap eats, like any Chinese or Indian restaurant.
That said, I would send your friend up to [Frognerseteren.no](http://Frognerseteren.no) for the wonderful view over Oslo and very decently priced, more or less traditional Norwegian meals (the café half, not the restaurant in the same building).
Lol… Yarn cheap?
Tell me you’re not married to someone wjo actually knits. Yarn is expensive AF. Sure you can buy some shit yarn at europris and similar., but the quality stuff absolutely isn’t cheap.
I found Fly Chicken’s [menu](https://www.flychicken.no/menu) and their prices don’t seem anywhere near as high as that, though it also doesn’t list this „raw chicken roulette“. I’m guessing it’s a special event? I’d assume the price tag you mentioned would have something to do with the crazy prep involved in making sure the raw chicken is safe to eat? Or is the point that it might not be safe, making it a game of roulette? The whole concept baffles me.
This has to be bait, or you’re insanely gullible.
They’ve tripled the expected price of 6 cocktails and the chicken is 10x the price of 30 wings from fly chicken.
4k Norwegian Kr for chicken roulette?! Where exactly was this? You meant 400kr?
