Food prices shock horror

[Admiral]

Well we've always found it very expensive here - I don't know how you guys survive on a permanent basis with these food prices!

Thank you Clubby. My original point bang on the nail.

I wasn't "dissin" France in my original post just making a general observation.  And, of course, you can't beat the lifestyle in France but it now appears it comes at a price that was never there before.

And, while I'm at it, SuperU is an expensive little store with the added disadvantage that it takes about two hours to get through check-out because, if you're lucky. they might have two open.

Having said that, the wine here is much cheaper.  Which is a big plus for some of us who like a little drop now and then.....
