Val Thorens "Cheap" Beer

Leeberty "nightclub" in the basement of the Carlines block, Bruyeres, Les Menuires, had a two hour happy hour last time I was there...three euros a pint (half normal price). Didn't go last year, so this may be out of date info...unless someone can confirm?
Bit early to write it off Tony! One good dump and it's all back on.....bet there's a lot of fingers crossed out there though....and a lot of people looking across the pond for damage limitation...I'm watching the last minute deals drop in price...like a hungry shark...
3V Cheap Lunch!

OK, I'll kick this one off with a couple of recommendations for a cheap lunch in the 3V...for those of us with tight budgets!
Please feel free to add your faves, or suggestions that won't break the bank....these are all in Les Menuires...

If you come off the Montagnettes chair in Les Menuires, ski back towards La Croisette for about a hundred metres, and there's what looks like a garden shed, with a handful of sun loungers outside. Under 10 Euros for a panini, fries and a coke. They even do kebabs!

Reberty 1850, Les Menuires, at the Ferme de Reberty. Right on the piste, huge decked area. Plat du jour for 12 Euro, hearty and wholesome, good quality and service. Good sized dishes off the menu from 10 Euros. Good atmosphere, gets busy at the end of the day. Incidentally there's the Igloo pizza restaurant next door to this, which is also excellent for a budget evening meal.

Bruyeres: In the croisette area, to the right of the intersport shop, there's an alleyway at the side of the ski pass office with a pizza/kebab takeaway. Massive pizzas from 8 Euro, Burgers, fries etc.

Go the whole hog. It's a fantastic ski area, which can be skied almost all over by evn fairly inexperienced skiers, provided you pick your routes carefully. SOOOO much more to see...especially if you get over to La Masse in Les Menuires, or the Orelle....

Decent dump forecast for the weekend. Don't panic.
