Yes! It’s about 200km to the Swedish border. Cigarettes were almost half the prize, not sure what’s now – but a huge lot of Norwegians go to Sweden to buy food, smokes, and alcohol – due to a rather significant bargain. Especially the wages in Norway are higher than in Sweden. That’s why it’s more common to be served by a Swede than a Norwegian in restaurants and bars in Oslo.
