… mehr zum Stoffsackerl
While these bags can be unicolored without any print, companies often use them for promotional purposes. More recently, “Stoffsackerl” have reached a certain cult status and are not simply utilitarian grocery bags anymore. They can be found in various stores and gift shops and display funny or socio-politically critical statements, art work, or iconic symbols, monuments, or people.
Arbeit mit der Kultur
Design your own “Stoffsackerl.” Think of a slogan or a phrase you want to include on your “Sackerl.”
Many cities offer a variety of open-air markets for shopping throughout the week, which are especially lively on Saturdays (though many are closed Sunday): examples include the Naschmarkt, Brunnenmarkt and Kutschermarkt in Vienna. In Berlin, several farmers’ markets are open two days a week, such as the markets on the Maybachufer or Winterfeldplatz. There are also numerous flea markets (Flohmärkte) where one can purchase used goods. In Berlin, some are even open Sunday, such as the flea markets at the Mauerpark and Boxhagenerplatz. Both are very popular with locals and tourists.
At markets or the deli (called the “Käsetheke” or “Wursttheke“), the price is determined by weight–typically by 100 grams. In contrast to the US, German-speaking Europe uses the metric system. Depending on what kind of food it is, one orders by grams (i.e. olives) or by kilograms (i.e. bread). In Austria, the unit “deka,” short for decagram (abbreviated as “dag”), or 10 grams, is frequently used at markets and cheese or meat delis: 10 deka = 100 grams.
Arbeit mit der Kultur
Do some research on one of these outdoor markets, flea markets, farmers’ markets, or Saturday markets to find out when it’s open, what one can buy there, and what the nearest public transportation stop is for getting there.
