There are many small grocery stores around Croatia such as Konzum and Diona. There you can buy most necessary foods, hygiene products and items like cigarettes and alcohol.If you have a more specific need like appliances, cutlery or wish to go bulk shopping then try one of the larger Konzums, Kaufland or Mercator.Bread in Croatia is sold in numerous bakeries unsliced and is, due to a lack of additives such as chemical conservanses, generally inedible after the second day of life, so if you don't eat bread much then ask for half a loaf "pola".Most brands that you likely know from home, like Nutella or M&M's, can be found in the larger stores but are rather expensive. Trying a domestic alternative or knock-off is not a bad idea.

Zagreb also has designated areas, the singular being a "plac", where you can buy and barter for clothes and shoes as well as perfume, chocolate and souvenirs. Illegally imported cigarettes are also often sold for cheap there because of high importation taxes.
