in Normandy, customers worried about filling their carts

On the shelves of a supermarket in Évreux (Eure)customers are wondering, Monday, March 21, about their purchasing power. Thus, two young seasonal workers prefer to buy in large quantities to save money. “For example, we take apples in a bag. This is what will be cheaper and that feeds well“, explains one of them. Joëlle Smith, retired, buys products close to their expiry date, which benefit from reductions. With the rise in fuel prices, she is also limiting trips between the supermarket and her house. “I do my shopping for quite a while“, she indicates.

Virginia Henry, caregiver family, does his shopping in hard discount. “For a week of shopping, we have, roughly, a shopping cart that will make a hundred euros, whereas in traditional supermarkets, we are almost double“, she compares.
