We happen to be in the market for tons of new electronics due to yet another of a Americas quirky ways ie miles, temperature, time,.... jeez. I love anything that's different but to adjust to the majority of the worlds ways is hard. Now we are looking for a new washer, dryer, coffee maker, hairdryer, TV.. etc. The list goes on and on and this lead us to the Best Buy of Germany... Saturn. Saturn is like Best Buy but on steroids. It has 5 floors of electronics heaven, if that's your idea of heaven! It's not mine, but the majority of my family is pretty excited to see an entire floor dedicated to gaming.
There was one noticeable difference between the two stores other than just the size. Saturn had almost an entire floor dedicated to coffee makers. Coffee makers of all shapes, sizes, and colors. There was even a 3,500 euro specialty brewer covered in your choice of sparkly crystals. Clearly the love of a cup a Joe is something this culture takes very seriously. That is saying a lot coming from a country of 4.00 specialty coffees around every corner.
The amount of coffee makers was simply overwhelming and I opted to think things over for a bit before committing to such an important purchase. All and all we walked out with one hairdryer, two cordless phones, and one transformer(for the 3DS) for a total of 92, Euros.
