We all felt the pinch in our wallet as supermarket prices rise but the towering prices in a Swiss supermarket have shocked a British tourist.

A family of five who exchanged living in the UK to travel the world has documented their experiences on Tap.

And it was during their stay in Switzerland at the Fitch Family Adventures -page revealed the high costs that surpass in Britain – as well as other countries throughout Europe.

“We are in Switzerland and we are about to go to the supermarket, so I thought I would show you how many of the store costs here, because it is known as real, really expensive ‘, the mother who has not shared her name, says in the clip.

She starts watching tomatoes, which are sold for 4.95 Swiss francs (CHF) – about £ 4.50.

A similar amount of baby plum tomatoes from Asda would cost £ 1.56.

Pre -packaged salads are then shown, ranging from 6.80 CHF to 7.20 (£ 6.20 to £ 6.60).

If you came to lunch Tesco, you can pick up a slightly smaller but almost the same caesar salad for just £ 3.00 – and it can be part of a meal deal.

If a pizza depicts you, two to take home and cook in the oven – those toppings seem to have such as healed meat and olives – you will restore 12 CHF or £ 10.99.

“The children wanted a little more paper to make some drawings, and this is 11.95 for a series of 500 sheets,” she explains, which converts up to around £ 11.95.

Switzerland is perhaps known for its chocolate, but sweet treats do not escape the high prices.

A package M&MS is sold for 6.15 CHF (£ 5.63), while a 500G package Lindor Chocolate is available for 23.95 CHF or £ 21.93.

In response to the video, a Tiktok user wrote: “How do people afford to live there!”

The Fitch Family Adventures account replied: “We found it absolutely difficult to pay for things like tourists.”

Others pointed out how people in Switzerland are paid better than in other countries.

A study by the telecommunication service provider Ringover in December 2024 showed that Switzerland is the best -paid country in the world, with salaries double the global average.

This nomadic family are not the only British who are surprised while shopping abroad.

Cavan O’grady took his mother on vacation to Spain to celebrate her 63rd birthday and was shocked by the cheap prices of food in Spanish supermarkets.

They stayed with his aunt in the city of La Línea de la Concepción, near the border of the country with Gibraltar.

But in addition to enjoying the 30C (86F) sun, Cavan said – known as CAV – that it was blown away by the local supermarket.

In one video, viewed 140,000 times on his Tiktokpage, the tourist filmed the items and prizes during shopping for food in Carrefour.
