Italian Supermarkets: Coop, Italy's Shoprite

10/1/2014

 
Here are some photos I took in an Italian supermarket--supermercato.
Coop
is the name of a very popular one. The layouts are much different than in the U.S....  much more fresh food, a huge cheese selection, the deli selections are amazing, milk in boxes and even a fine wine section! You have to wear gloves when selecting your fruit and veggies, too. And if you want a shopping cart, you need to use a 1 Euro coin to unlock one. Return the cart and you get your coin back. Checking out is different... they charge a few pennies for plastic bags, so most people bring their own reusable bags. And customers do their own bagging. No baggers!
