I have summer holidayed in SE and SW France for the last 5 years and was paying 5 Euros a pint last summer in a campsite bar, I dread to think what the priceas are like in the French Alps!!
I have skied the past 4 years in Austria and only got back from Mayrhofen on sunday which is not the cheapest in Austria I have been to. The difference, I was normally paying E 3.20- E 3.80 for a half litre either in the town or on the mountain.
Not to rub it in to much but I had a huge plate full of Vienasnitzel and chips and half litre of lager for E 9.30 on the most expensive mountain bar/restaurant we used. Even with pound being poor against the Euro it still really only reflected London pub prices. Allez Le Austria!!

No you've lost me there!! Perhaps I confused the issue when I said it was 5 Euros a pint which is near as damn it a half litre!! So if it was E5 a half litre in campsite bar I would suggest it would alot more on the French Alps to buy beer, hence my comparing the prices to Austria.
If of course you just meant drink less and spend the same amount, then I might as well not go out at all and be a right bore and save alot. I am not of course advocating that you need to drink to enjoy yourself, but sometimes it helps. :lol:
[b]Got to go I've got a meeting to catch!!

You may mock but we got a free lollipop (each!) for being the first customers of the season in the very nice (and very arty - as in lots of art on the walls) resto near the top of the main gondola in LGB the other week... although there were no chips as the potatoes hadn't arrived... :cry:
