Everything including the kitchen sink...

Fantastic fares for shopaholics this winter make France even better value with Brittany Ferries!

With shopping in France being generally cheaper, not just for alcohol but for a whole range of other goods, Brittany Ferries has some great deals this winter for passengers intent on finding the ultimate bargain across the channel!

From just £19.95 per person, passengers, with a choice of sailings to Caen, Cherbourg, St. Malo or Roscoff, can spend up to 24 hours exploring the fascinating French supermarkets, shops and traditional markets before heading home again with their booty
There are big savings to be made on a whole range of goods for shoppers both on board Brittany Ferries for the more traditional purchases of alcohol and perfumes and, in France, where everything from gardening tools to DIY items can be found more cheaply than in the UK. Some of the fantastic deals  on offer include:

Beer
Example: A case of 24 bottles (25cl) of Stella Artois from Auchon will cost less than half than in Tesco in the UK, whilst on board Brittany Ferries a “4 for 3” offer works out at an amazing £3.05 per case, or almost a quarter of the UK price per bottle!

Champagne
Example: Not only is there more choice, but there are some great deals to be had as well in France when buying Champagne. Pick up a bottle of Moet et Chandon Brut for £17.13 (Auchan) in France rather than spending £19.24 (Tesco) in the UK. On board a bottle of Lanson costs only £14.50.

Cheese
Example: Buying in bulk is much cheaper in France, especially when it comes to cheese! 1 kilogram of Societe Roquefort cheese will set you back £12.14 (Auchan) compared to £21.40(Tesco) in the UK.

Perfume
Example: Splashing out £25.00 (Boots) on a bottle (30ml) of Elizabeth Arden 5th Avenue perfume is much more expensive then spending £19.81 (Marionnuad) in France on the same bottle.  Further savings can be made with the range of on board special offers.

Kitchenware
Example: It even makes sense to pack the kitchen sink on your return from France as it will only set you back £48.00 (Leroy Merlin) compared to spending £125.00 (B&Q) in the UK on a similar unit.

Fuel
Example: Petrol goes a long way in France with diesel priced at 66.23 pence per litre on average compared to 86.1 pence per litre in the UK. (Source: AA)
