Courcheval Le Praz Cheap Beer

Off to Courchevel on a last minute booking on Sunday.
Under strict instructions from she who must be obeyed that this is supposed to be my cheap boys' weekend & staying in a chalet in 1350/Le Praz so any tips on bars that aren't eye wateringly expensive for a pre-dinner beer (essential for rehydration).

Whilst my mate has ski'd the area in the past he's not stayed there & I've not been to Courchevel so reasonably priced suggestions would be appreciated.

Not convinced it will be the cheap week that was planned as it's already cost me over a grand in units for the utility room! However you have to try!

Courchevel and Cheap are not 2 words you ever expect to see together.

I hope you have a good financial advisor.

..or a 0% credit card.

Having just skied in similarly priced Val d'Isere, we got through the week by pretending we were handing out monopoly money rather than euros to the various (no doubt rich) owners of the eateries and bars.

I stayed in le praz a few years ago with my dad and there was a large hotel that ad a great happy hour just on the walk back from the gondola-went went in April so there was no snow in the town

... do like the teenagers :shock: - start the evening with a few bottles back in the apartment before you go out and then drink sparingly when out :shock:

You will feel like a total cheapskate but at Courcheval prices, why not? Don't forget their beer prices reflect the fact that the French usually only have one or two over the course of an evening :roll:

I had a feeling I was asking a question without an answer!

Looks like a trip to the SuperU is on the cards!
