I can only view the situation through my eyes ....... Once a week a drive down to the nearest large town "Cluses" where you will find more or less brit prices, there will be some variation but last time I visited it was 50/50, some products cheaper others not, but you will certainly not be paying ski resort prices. I always think the quality of fresh veg looks and tastes a lot better than ours.

Absolutely, but there are some things which will always be more expensive like English tea bags and six months without a decent cuppa is uneccessary. Not for me, I don't drink tea, but I couldn't go without my marmite on toast.


Thank you for your input Ian.

When I come out in January tell me what you are running out of and I'll bring it with me, does that make you happy. :lol:

The whole point of this thread is so that we don't run out of anything. You can bring what we forget! :lol:

Marmite would be 1st on my list too, but I see you've got that one!

What I thought of was painkillers, medication.

A few years ago in Chamonix my son had a throat infection.
We weren't prepared and had to buy some painkillers. What we got were some kind of minty chewy ones which cost almost €4.

Things like that are so much cheaper in our supermarkets and recognisable too.

Have a great time, my nephew has done the last 3 seasons in Morzine and loves it.

Painkillers are now on my list!

Is your nephew going to be there this season?
