One public transport ticket is valid for one trip. Purchasing a day- or a week-pass will help you to save. And there is one more tip: intercity bus tickets cost less on weekends.

In Slovakia there is a unique retail chain selling popular craftwork items - ULUV. These shops are available in all big cities; the prices are fixed and quite affordable.

For night shopping addicts there are grocery stores operating from 8PM to 5AM. They are designated as «vecierka».

You can save big by using discount portals, for example, zlavomat.sk, ZlavaDna.sk, zlavy.odpadnes.sk

What we call «menu» has a “set-meal” meaning in Slovakia. That’s why don’t be surprised if there is no menu at some restaurants. And if there is one, you are lucky, because its dishes are much cheaper. Thus, in the center of Bratislava if you order a menu between noon and 2PM you’ll pay only 5 euro for it.

The most convenient, practical and cheap way to get from Košice to Bratislava is the local suburban train. Ticket prices start from 9 euro. Bus tickets are more expensive, from 14 euro.

Pizzeria is one of the most affordable places to eat out. You can purchase a big and delicious slice of pizza for 50 cents.

Keep your eyes open at cafés and restaurants. They always offer trimmings when you order meat but the cost of them is not included in the cost of a dish. The cost of trimmings is indicated in the special menu column. Portions, however, are huge, so two people can share one portion.
