    It's with car, on foot it must be much cheaper

      The only place I can think of is the Euro Hostel

          Fins in the west go on booze cruises to Sweden, they don't leave the ship when the rest disembarks in Sweden, they stay on board and stay drunk
          I know a Finn who periodically takes an estate car on the ferry to Estonia and comes back with it maxed out capacity wise. Apparently Estonian prices on spirits, wines and beer are cheap compared to the UK, so to a Finn they're practically paying him to drive it away.

            Sweden's hardly cheap though - just cheap in comparison

                Does that mean I should order my v1@gr@ online from Europe instead of buying it at my local massage parlour? OR even better, buying it from Europe and then pushing it to my permies?

                      If you use too much you could get a permie!
