Affordable cost.
Contexto cultural
Poles are very price-conscious due to historical inflation. Finding a 'dobra cena' is considered a sign of intelligence. In the US, 'good price' is often replaced by 'great deal' or 'bargain' in casual speech. Germans value 'Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis' (price-performance ratio), which is a more technical version of 'dobra cena'. Haggling is common, and a 'good price' is the result of a long negotiation, unlike the fixed prices in Polish malls.
Use it to be polite
If someone offers you a price that is too high, saying 'To nie jest dla mnie dobra cena' is a polite way to decline.
Gender agreement
Never say 'dobry cena'. 'Cena' is feminine, always.
