Here in Shanghai, China, are two large Wal-mart stores, but they are dumps compared to the French discout store, Carefoure. The Chinese have a version of them called Lotus Center which is also much better than Wal-mart.

- There are Carrefour stores in China?
Great, but an even more praiseworthy European chain of stores is German Lidl.
I bought a razor-sharp kitchen knife for €1 at a Lidl store in Hamburg some years ago for my best friend’s summer house in Dalsland here in Sweden, because IMO such a magnificent residence deserves to house a fully equipped kitchen and also, when I’m a guest to this place, I usually end up doing all of the cooking.
