Oh, I can tell you about the prices. First of all, the average amount of money people get to spend monthly is around 20 to 30k rubles. That's around 350$ in best case for you Americans. That amount hasn't changed for a long time, wages or pensions included, if not counting slight pocket change raises.

Now, let's look at prices of common goods: a 1.5L water bottle - used to 16-18 rubles, now 38-42 rubles, 1L bottle of milk - around 30 rubles, now 84 rubles, sausages, butter and cheese used to be below 100 rubles, now they're 300 rubles on a good day. Meat wrap with extra meat used to be 150 rubles, now it's 300 rubles. And so on and so forth.

In general, prices have increased by 3 times, mostly meat and dairy products, because our farmers are getting fucked over just as much as yours do. Prices keep going up while wages stagnate, there's no stopping to it, and no hope that they'll ever go back down again, no matter how much they keep telling us that "ruble is now gold based" or that its "conversion rate has improved" - none of it matters. And it's only getting worse.


As for the vid: 2 cheeseburgers and 2 colas used to be around 200 rubles. Though I admit it's been ages since I was at McD, and I don't plan to go there any time soon. Also, Americans are probably baffled by how clean everything is. And not a nigger on sight! They'd be like - why is it so clean? And how would an average Russian respond? "What do you mean, clean? That's just normal." It's quite the dissonance.
