....and other American items.
I will be moving to DK from the US soon. Though I am prepared for things to be vastly different than I am used to, I am proactively trying to find which of my "favorite" items may be available in DK/can ship to DK, or find equivalents as best possible. Also looking for brick-and-mortar store or website suggestions that are similar to American stores for :
- department/retail stores (ex., Target, TJMAXX, Crate & Barrel, Pottery Barn, Macy's)
- grocery items (ex., condensed soup, Tabasco, heavy whipping cream, specialty flours/spices)
- craft/hobby shops (ex., Hobby Lobby, Michael's)
- cooking/baking/appliances stores (ex., Williams Sonoma, Kirkland's, Sur la Table)
- linens (ex., Bed, Bath & Beyond, Kohl's, Nordstrom)
- carrier oils and NaOH for soapmaking
I also have Amazon Prime and their CS indicated that I can just transfer my account to be operative in DK. Anyone have experience with that, as well?
Thank you kindly for any help/opinions. Apologies in the advance for the long-winded post.

kox9n95We say that "everything is bigger in America" - also meaning that everything is smaller in Denmark. You won't find 20 different oreo flavors or a whole aisle of cereal products. Grocery stores have a few options of different items, not the amount you are probably used to.
Same for everything else basically. Yeah we have hobby stores, but they are rarely very large or carry anything you could dream of.
Many things can be ordered online, but with some you might not find a danish site for it and will have to use amazon or something. Which doesn't even always ship to Denmark.
Basically Denmark isn't exactly a shopping paradise, neither for groceries nor anything else. But you'll get used to it and get by, just as us Danes do.
