Sortof, normally one can hardly buy anything above 100 euro's there, hence
the surprise....

But like the similar German chain Lidl they often have surprisingly nice
items, like exotic food actions (which are not always a success, in
conservative regions, so you can buy them at a huge discount in the
end....
)
Or a compact automotive toolbox for 50 euro's, that not only includes a basic
set of sockets and wrenches, but also electrical tester & crimptools, plus a
decent ratchet screw driver and dual/in-out battery-post cleaner....haven't
seen the latter two items included in such kits anywhere before, not even for
more money.
