Prices as of 7 November 2026. This is a dated snapshot, not a live price.
Every price below is a landed cost: the local price converted at the ECB reference rate (or a market rate where the ECB publishes none) plus an estimated ~2% card foreign-transaction fee, so countries compare like for like. The cheapest prices usually need a payment method registered in that country (a local card or a regional gift card), an extra step, not a one-click saving.
