Hello everyone!

Pyaterochka's got a presence on just about every corner in my city and neighborhood, so I'm always popping in to grab what I need. During my last visit, I spotted some new year's goodies on the shelves.

I'm a big fan of their seasonal products – there's always some great stuff to choose from. But, let's be real, it's always a good idea to have a store map, because many items (not just the seasonal ones) have discounts only with the card.

In this year's selection, I really liked the holiday decorations and accessories.

And, of course, they've also got some new dishware in stock. I thought I'd pick up a few items for gifts.

They've also got some sweet new year's treats:

Pyaterochka's selection is always great – you can find everything from groceries to household goods and essentials.

However, I have to say that the prices at Pyaterochka aren't always the most value for money for me. Sometimes I end up buying things elsewhere.

As for the store's cleanliness and customer service, I've got no complaints. The atmosphere is usually pretty nice, but it does depend on the specific store.

Lines at the checkout aren't always a guarantee, but they usually happen during rush hour. Luckily, many stores have self-service kiosks now, which I think is a game-changer.

When I'm buying fruits and veggies at Pyaterochka, I have to be picky – not all of them are fresh.

Pyaterochka's bakery is also pretty decent – I sometimes grab a treat there. They usually wrap it quickly, so it's usually fresh.

Prices are pretty reasonable, too.

I've found that the quality of coffee from Perekrestok can vary depending on the store I visit. Sometimes it's really good, but other times it's just not drinkable.

The price of their coffee is around 100 rubles, which is about half the price of what I'd expect to pay at a regular coffee shop.

I've discovered that some of their baked goods are really hit-or-miss. But I have to say, their garlic baguette is a total winner - I'm obsessed!

I've become a regular at Perekrestok - I usually go there to buy groceries and other essentials.

On my last visit, I even picked up some cheese.

I'd definitely recommend Perekrestok to others. Most of the time, I've had a great experience shopping there - the stores are well-stocked and the staff is friendly.

The location is also super convenient - it's right near my house.

Thanks for reading, everyone!
