Sweden Shopping Tips by Dizzyhead

In tourist shops.: Tshirt.

I guess you can find this t-shirt here and there, and with that I mean where usually tourists are. I have never seen it myself, but I thought it was very funny. It would be a very good gift for your friends when you get back home and give your friends the souvenirs.

What to buy: This special t-shirt.

What to pay: I have no idea what this one can cost. Maybe between 10 and 15 euros. It is just my guess.

All tourist and gift shops in Sweden.: Dala horse.

Dalecarlian Horse or Dala horse are the names on this wooden gift, apopular thing from Dalarna, a region in the middle of Sweden. It was mostly used as a toy for children in the past, but nowdays it is a symbol of Dalarna and Sweden in general.

What to buy: Buy a Darelcian horse. Something very typical Swedish.

What to pay: The price can be very different, if it is a handmade one or if it is a massproduced dalahäst. I have seen in many secondhand shops that you can buy this horse there too. I remember from my childhood that we had many at home, but where are they now... No idea, I guess I have to ask my mother that question. I would like to have one by myself.

Address: All gift shops all over the country.

Directions: You can find all the shops all over Sweden, especially tourist shops and other special shops. Check also on the net, if you can buy as a second hand and for a lower price probably. You can also find them in secondhand shops all over Sweden.

Most food shops in Gotland.: Salmbär.

What to buy: This is a jam with special berries from Gotland. I dont know if we have these berries in any other place of Sweden. I dont think so, but it is a very delicious jam and I have tried it. You can buy in the most food shops in Gotland cans with this jam.

What to pay: It is quite expensive, and you must probably pay around 5 euros for a smaller can.

Address: All shops, even included tourist shops.
