Maxima needs to expand to more countries, honestly. I visit Lithuania regularly and I love that store.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

we call it mahima here since it's usually frequented by occupants and staffed by people who can't speak the local language. Despite that it has good prices and one of the best kitchens of any big market. Just annoying to shop with some babushkas who act like their kgb officer husband is still alive.

I'm from Latvia originally, Maxima should fucking die.

Itโ€™s far far cheaper than Rimi tho. Those guys rip you off.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 19 hours ago

There are reasons why they're cheaper. For example, they cheap out on construction costs, so sometimes their supermarkets collapse killing tens of people.

Maxima also loves to give you salmonella as a free bonus: today, three years ago, five years ago, and pretty much every year for the last two decades.

Maxima is a never ending source of scandals.
