My wife would like some ideas of shops in the Ruse or Razgrad regions that will sell things like duvets and duvet covers, pillows, Curtains, flooring (laminate and tiles) mosquito nets for the bed, mattresses etc and all other "essential" home items.

Can anyone point us in the right direction and also places to avoid would be good too!

Many thanks

Mike

Praktiker is good for floor tiles etc. and also sell furniture and textiles. There's a Jysk in Ruse, they might have suitable items. For both stores, she can check online to see if they have what she wants. There's sure to be plenty of other stores, too.

I rarely go to the stores, as you can order online with delivery to your house/apt. You just need a local mobile number so the courier can call you when he's nearby (and a browser with auto translation).

Most things are covered by the dot-bg sites for: IKEA/JYSK (flat pack furniture and soft furnishings/bedding); Praktiker/Praktis (DIY tools and materials inc. paints and flooring); Technopolis/Technomarket (electronics and home appliances); eMag (misc. stuff inc. electronics, clothing, furniture, household goods); Decathlon (all sports and outdoors related).

I occasionally use a Euro Amazon (.es or .de), but usually eMag is good enough (with fast, cheap delivery). Praktiker and Praktis have nearly everything for gardens and renovations, but I did use Baniastil a fair bit (bathrooms) and onlinemashini (tools, mowers, strimmers, etc.). AliExpress and Alibaba still have some utility, as do cheap Chinese sites like Shein.
