[JackBauer]

Thank you so much, merci beaucoup! This is really helpful!
About the cross hill you mentioned. Do you know where I can book the ticket for that bus?

Sorry no, i just saw the ad for the bus in my hotel in Latvia.

All of this is completely true. The high price of alcohol is caused by the fact the state-owned shops have complete monopoly for all alcohol over 4,7% (if I remember the percentages correctly), and though i.e. beer can be found nearly anywhere, the government actually put restrictions on the price there as well, and I'm not only talking about the tax on alcohol, which increases the price a lot. But yes, unless you're really into Finnish beer or vodka... don't.

The finnish boarder is just a 2 hour drive from here, imagine what drinking costs in Norway when we are driving all the way to Finland to by your cheap Vodka
