learning 16 | 72 7 Apr 2008 / #1Like a bag of chips in the US is 99 cents or a dollar let's say...How much is a bag of chips in Poland? 1 Złotych? I am trying to understand what the standard money unit is. In some countries 1 USD could be like 1000 of WHATEVER but that 1000 doesn't mean anything, it's only a number. Anyone understand what I'm saying?
sinistar - | 12 7 Apr 2008 / #2euh why don't you just go to a bank site and calculate how mutch polish money you get for your dollar.
Krzysztof 2 | 973 8 Apr 2008 / #5a bag of chips in the USand what the heck is that? how are we supposed to answer such question :)do you have chips sold in one size bag only?in Poland the prices start at 0.70-1.00 zł (for a 20-22 grams bag)
Krzysztof 2 | 973 8 Apr 2008 / #7still not helping :)I can eat both 22 grams bag or 50 grams at once, no such thing as "single serving" in Poland.If I asked how much for a beer in US, what would you answer?(I'd be having in mind 0.5 l bottle, as it's the most popular size, but I guess your first thought could be different, don't know if you buy beers mostly in 0.5 l bottles, but I guess not)
Firestorm 6 | 400 8 Apr 2008 / #8no such thing as "single serving" in PolandNo such thing as a single serving in America too..

plk123 8 | 4,142 8 Apr 2008 / #12If I asked how much for a beer in US, what would you answer?what are you guys going on about? one serving is one small bag of chips. one beer costs anywhere from $2 for Olympia to 7 or 8 for premium import. that's a 12oz or 330ml.
OP learning 16 | 72 8 Apr 2008 / #14Lol you guys made a huge fuss about this. I should've been more cogent with my question. I just wanted to know if the 1 zloty was the standard base amount of cash.I said a bag of chips because its always a dollar which in the US is the standard base...
plk123 8 | 4,142 8 Apr 2008 / #15IT'S A STANDART FOR POLES BUT IT IS NOT FOR ANYONE ELSE UNLESS THEIR MONEY = ZL AT THE EXCHANGE (1:1)
OP learning 16 | 72 8 Apr 2008 / #16Ok ok thanks. That is all I wanted to know. I know about the currency rates, I am not blind to the technology available. Just wanted to see what the Polish consider as a dollar, not how much the dollar's exchange rate is.
lowfunk99 10 | 397 8 Apr 2008 / #17If I asked how much for a beer in US, what would you answer?My answer would be that I do not drink. :p
Seanus 15 | 19,674 8 Apr 2008 / #18A bag of chips or a bag of crisps? Chips, oh, ok, then it depends. How long is a piece of string?
OP learning 16 | 72 8 Apr 2008 / #22Lol, no I'm just being stupid. Your sentence was 97 characters long, which is a string in comp. sci. terms.
Krzysztof 2 | 973 8 Apr 2008 / #23LOL @ this whole thread, communication breakdownanyway, I bought today a bag of chips (especially for this thread, well, not really, but I had an excuse): 33 grams, (Frito Lays, Paprika flavour), 1.00 złoty.
