This was the case at the Lithuanian-Belarusian border.



In Belarus, travel to Poland and Lithuania "for purchases" is very popular. In particular, IKEA, as the Swedes have not yet opened a store in Belarus.



I took an IKEA closet made up of several boxes. At the Belarusian border inspection, a woman approaches and asks to open the luggage. I open it and try to shake it a little. In order to reduce the price of the goods being transported and to pay a lower tax on importation, I begin to tell you that I take a few taburets, there are a few boxes and the cost of them is small. Of course, tables are cheaper than the closet.



She replied, “Man, I have been working here for 6 years, I can tell you not only the cost of this closet, but also to tell you on which shelf in Vilnius IKEA you took it.”
