No mattter where you go ini the world there are just some stores that you cant get away from brand stores!
This can be useful if you like familiarity and find brands reliable but then again can be a pain if the one reason you are away is too escape the corporate cuddle.
Here is a list of some of the big boys (or girls!):
Walmart/ Asda: 375 billion dollar sales
Walmart locations around the globe
Tesco: 103 billion dollar sales
Tesco locations around the globe
Kroger: 70 billion dollar sales
Costco: 65 bilion dollar sales
Aldi: 53 billion dollar sales
To make use of some of these big brands:
check out the global deal checker
or
the global site for shopping online loyalty rewards.
A bit of both can never hurt, in a country where the country much less the language is new, it can help to have a familiar brand nearby.
