Norwegian border traders are invited to choose Denmark

A Norwegian family acts on Nordby shopping center outside Strömstad, near the Norwegian border. The three Crown value against each other means that it is now cheaper for Norwegians to get to Denmark instead. 
Is this the end for the long queues to liqoured companies and supermarkets at the Norwegian border? Norwegian economists argue now that the Norwegians go to the "wrong" country to fill the coffers. Now it is cheaper to travel to Denmark.
– The Swedish krona has strengthened sharply since 2009, and it is not so cheap, compared to the past. At the same time, the Danish krone was not so weak against the Norwegian in several years and the forecast says that it will be weak for some time to come, "says Maria Setsaas on Norwegian Focus Bank.
While Sweden's economy has fared well, the Danish krone, which complies with the euro, has been dragged into the crisis. The Norwegians, who are outside the EU and stands firmly on its oil assets, to benefit from this.
At the turn of the year 2008/2009 was a Norwegian spend 134 kroner for a Danish-per diem allowances. Enough of 98. A per diem allowances costs still fewer Norwegian krone, 88 at the time of writing, but is clearly more expensive than a few years ago when it was below 80.
