Supermarkets in RURAL Russia (500km FAR from Moscow) after 700 Days of Sanctions in Russian Province

Finally! What you were waiting for so much - typical supermarket in the RURALS of Russia. Visiting “Pyaterochka” and “Magnit” grocery supermarkets in Boksitogorsk, a provincial Russian town, located 500km far from Moscow and 250km far from St Petersburg. One of the most delusional and biggest stereotypes about Russia is that there is no life (good life) in 100 km from Moscow and St Petersburg. In particular, let’s say, one of the most popular delusional comments to my grocery supermarkets in St Petersburg, and I saw the same in the comments to Travelling with Russell supermarket videos in Moscow, is that those supermarkets are the “museums” - some of the supermarkets to show off that the western sanctions got no any impact on them. And those commenters, who never been to Russia though, however, were saying that need to go 100km far from Moscow to a typical Russian town where there is no anything like in Moscow, St Petersburg and maybe several more of major cities of Russia.
