As was the case in the USA, in NL shopping at 'ethnic' markets tends to be a lot cheaper than the mainstream grocery stories.
Example: Today my wife came back from our local 'ethnic' grocery with a whole chicken (1.3kg) for only 6 euros. (about 1/2 price to our local AH).

For my Dutch friends, note that the CDA finds it easier to work with the VVD who worked *with* the PVV and BBB than they'd find it to work with GroenLinks-PvdA who won't work with the PVV or the BBB.
