The case in Greece too, but it seems we can’t be arsed boycotting 😢
Keep on going! Fck big corpos! 💪
I understand the reaons for the boycot, but where are you going to get your groceries then? Or wait – you’ll get them on Thursday or Saturday?
Fuck sweden needs to do this.
The grocery store chains are all price gauging
Respect. Stay strong!
Good on you – keep it going! People against corporate greed!
The same problem in Romania.
Next do the housing market/rent prices
Respect+ that you are really doing this.
Austria when?
Can someone enlighten me. Where do people buy stuff if they need anything? And if they buy in more expensive stores then why boycott because of the pricing? And if they buy in cheaper stores why not always buy cheaper?
I’m just curious what the final outcome is hoped to be.
Estonia even has higher prices than Croatia. Estonians also need to stay strong and not be complacent and boycott grocery stores there
We should do the same in Poland
So what do people eat now?
You guys are awesome! It’s very inspiring to see the power a lot of people can have, when they pull together. All the world could learn for you guys and Serbia as well.
this should be done in every fucking european country
Nice, Croatians know how to organize and how to be team players!
Honestly I must ask, how do you guys manage to do this? So many efforts to organise boycotts and mass strikes or protests are uttered in other countries but never cone to fullfillment xcept lately in the easy bloc they do
I respect this, go Croatia!
I wish we had the sense to do this in Britain.
This is how we could control fuel costs at the pump, by isolating one fuel company until they drop their prices.
Consumer power at its finest
Judging by the darkness outside the windows i assume this picture was taking first thing in the morning (by staff?). Does it look the same way during the day?
Keep it going, W Croatia
How were these protests organized? Maybe we could learn a thing or two.
I was on holiday in Croatia in 2022, the year before it adopted the euro, so prices were indicated both in kuna and euro. I went for groceries at one of the big chains and the cheapest bottle of rosé was 8€. While this is “normal” where I live, the median wage in my country is double that of Croatia’s. So yes, I can imagine that having to decide wether or not you can afford even the basic necessities gets tiring.
Croatia is a beautiful country with super nice people, and you guys are now setting an example the rest of Europe. I’m rooting for you, keep up the good fight!
Uninformed American. My big question is, are the grocery stores trying to just starve people out at this point? Humans pretty famously require food to remain alive, so if nobody is buying food, how are they eating?
Love the absolute cluelessness of some redditors in the comments
“How will they eat?”
Bro it’s the balkans, cigarettes will be chewed out of spite, food will be made with home ingredients (and will probably last longer than store bought one), borders will be skipped to go discount-hunting, croats are nothing but headstrong and spiteful, I can fully see them continue this boycott just for the sake of it
Stores that form cartels are here in the US too, luckily a couple don’t participate.
Capitalism working its magic once again.
Croatia i hope you prevail in this. The prices in both Croatia and Serbia are insanely and unfairly high, especially considering the disparity in wages, (especially in Serbia) and some EU countries. Leading people to eat less healthy, diverse and quality food.
Disgrace and hopefully we continue to boycott their asses.
Stupid question: is this an ongoing boycott as in every day?
If yes, were do these people get their food from? Local markets?
Serbia enter a chat,we dont have coastline and we have even higher pricees the CRO.
Capitalism understand only wallet so hit them in the wallet. we should all do these for all corporation that we deemed not good.
Having lived in the US and now watching the shitshow from afar, I am increasingly amazed that people in non-US countries actually taking more actions that Americans who love to boast their freedom.
Greetings from Germany, you have my absolute solidarity in the boycott. Fuck these fuckers up!
Do you want poor millionaires ? Because that’s how you get poor millionaires.
Bravo.
In Portugal we have the same problem. Prices have not stopped rising for two years. People don’t understand that they have the power to affect these large distributor companies, slow down consumption. I believe that with a very significant drop in consumption they would still buy enough to feed themselves.
Prices keep rising and consumption continues to increase. The message we convey is that everything is ok.
