Hi, Nitesh!
1. The fine pork (rump steak) is 400 roubles per kg, beef steak is 350-400 roubles per kg, the whole chicken is 100-110 roubles per kg and chicken's thigh is 150 roubles per kg. Of course these prices are depend on store, and can be higher or lower.
2. Tomato: 100-160 roubles per kg; cucumber: 60-100 roubles per kg depending on season; bread is 10-20 roubles per piece (400 grammes)
3. Vodka can cost from 60 roubles (but i won't recommend you to drink that) to 1000 roubles..Smile I think the bottle that cost 200 roubles per 0,5 litre will be nice ( i don't drink vodka myself, so sorry..Smile
4. If you're student of university, you usually can use photocopier for free.
What kind of books do you mean? For study or just for fun?
Pencils and pens are cheap, near 15-30 roubles per piece. In large stores like Metro Cash&Carry or Auschan you can buy these thing a lot cheaper.

I hope this helps..Smile

Shantalya Hi!

You are right!

Auchan of course, but at Metro Cash and Carry serves not all. Legal entities and individual entrepreneurs. If you have friends who have a map METRO Cash and Carry. We recently got this card, bought a couple of times. The prices, I'll tell you, in Auchan much cheaper if you do not have huge packages. Very Happy
