Protecting inefficient commercial ventures with odd government schemes is so DPRK. I thought ROK was above such measures. It sickens me. Small business can and do compete. The organic healthy coop store near my house is jam pack all the time and charges membership fees that make costco look like a deal. The dirty shop that keeps vegetables on the floor and has guy yelling on microphone and discounts for rotten vegetables is empty. E mart is closed due to government restrictions.

I like local supermarkets best for shopping, as they accept credit card too.
E-mart or Costco offer mostly big size for family, so buying fruit or vegetables is large amount for 1~2 person, therefore more expensive than local supermarkets.
I dislike outdoor markets as they don't accept credit card. But some people like there as they know that there is cheapest for fruit or vegetables.
Sometimes on Sundays, I use supermarkets in department stores too (like Shinsegae, Lotte, Hyundae).
Might be a bit more pricey than E-mart, but worth for shopping some small amount of product with good quality. (There is open 365 days a year)

Now that you've filled us in on your shopping habits, how about posting about some other aspects of your life that you like/dislike?
