Differences

Convenience store lock their fridges. You need to signal to the cashier and they unlock the fridge with a remote.

The vodka brands most likely to be found in better traditional restaurants is Finlandia, Smirnoff and Absolute in that order. 

Product selection is limited everywhere. There are plenty of malls with designer brand stores and plenty of department and grocery stores. But your chances of finding the brand, size, flavour etc. of what you want seems rare. 

There are free coat checks everywhere. 

Many of the supermarkets have lockers at the entrance. 

Contrary to rumour, vodka, beer and other liquor is not cheaper than water. There is a premium on bottled water in a restaurant but that is no different than at home.  

You can get a massage for about half what it costs in Canada but you can't induce them to touch your feet. Maybe if I try a pedicure?
