The prices are exactly the same as in UK allowing for the rate of excahnge obviously. Don't quite know how they do it. I know that on 2 items, Colmans mustard( If I remember correctly a large jar for the price of a small one)  and Heinz baked beans- they are very much cheaper than the same items at the local Leclerc. His bacon and sausages from a butcher in devon are just like I remember as a boy.    Report
