A British holidaymaker has voiced his astonishment about one key aspect of life in Tenerife, vowing never to return to the UK. The man, who goes by @deebolar on TikTok, shared a video on the platform with the caption, "I have to go back to cost of living crisis after this", revealing his shock at the difference in day-to-day costs he encountered on the island in the Canaries.

The Briton said that having learnt the difference in affordability, the UK "no longer makes sense to him", drawing attention to everyday items and their surprisingly low price tags. "I've been here for 24 hours, and this supermarket is my best friend, bro," he explained, adding: "For context, €1 is 85p, so you're seeing €1 here for like two plus litres of Fanta, Coke, 7up. I mean, it's off-brand, but who gives a toss? It's like 70p/80p - those bottles are like 50p. And eight litres of water for €1.50 - that's like £1.20, bro.
