I Need To Move - Big Mac Prices :/
 

The Economist's Big Mac index is based on the theory of purchasing-power parity (PPP), the idea that exchange rates should move to equalise the prices of a basket of goods and services across different countries. Our basket is the Big Mac. For example, the cheapest burger in the chart is in China, at $1.26, compared with an average American price of $3.

Price in Norway $6.10 :uhoh ... I want better burgerprices!

Wow, time to move bro.

So you're saying that if I go to China I can get a Big Mac for $1.26? That's not bad but sometimes I still find the $.99 Whopper so I may not move to China just yet.

Then sometimes they have the 2 for 2 dollar deal here that's when I get fat...

6$ for a burger in norway forget aabout it i'd rather eather something else...

i cant find norway in that chart... where to you see $6.10 ?

mcmc: since Norway wasn't included a paper here in norway made a point of it and checked... btw.. catchy name for this thread :)

You know... everything you could eat would be more expensive in Norway. It's not like burgers are fucking expensive, and everything else is cheap. :1orglaugh

everythings expensive in Scandinavia with the taxes over there...

Cheap Bigs Macs will mean more fat people :party-smi

he probably lives there thats how he knows

Brazil has cheap big macs. But other shit is crazy. a PS2 here is $150 and it is $500 there. Anything imported is off the charts. So this graph is nice but I would not go crazy with it.

:wetkiss

Just trying different smilies

if they raised the price to $6.10 here in north america, it would almost be considered gourmet food
