High cost.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
Danes are very price-conscious despite high salaries. Complaining about the price of butter or gas is a national pastime and a way to bond with neighbors. In Norway and Sweden, prices are also high, but Danes often travel to Germany to buy cheaper goods ('grænsehandel'), making 'Det er meget dyrt' a reason for a road trip. Danes visiting the US often find the 'sticker price' cheap, but then realize that after tax and tip, 'det er meget dyrt' anyway. Danes are often shocked by the price of fruit in Japan, where a single melon can be 'meget dyrt'.
