When in France do as the French do: Shop at the hypermarket!

The French love their daily visits to la boulangerie and other neighborhood stores, but like many people in the rest of the Western world, they also like deals and convenience. They have shopped at les hypermarchés (hypermarkets,) since the 1960s. Véro takes you around one of these superstores and shares her favorite products and shopping tips. What you will learn in this video: Find your way around a French hypermarket and learn handy shopping tips. Pronounce French words and brand names. Identify some of the best products one can buy in a French supermarket. Tutorial / Things to Remember: un hypermarché (a hypermarket, a superstore) (Edouard) Leclerc, Carrefour, Auchan, Géant Casino, and more, typically located in the suburbs. This store's location: "le 93" (la Seine St Denis, east of Paris.) All French administrative geographic subdivisions are identified with two digits (found in postal codes and other places.) Downtown Paris is 75. La parapharmacie: Quality beauty products found in most pharmacies or in the "parapharmacie" section of many hypermarkets. Apéritif (Apéro:) Refers to a favorite French ritual similar to Happy Hour, and to food and beverages served to celebrate that special time of day (saucisson, dry sausage, being a favorite.) "Bio" (biologique,) organic products. Trendy! Disclaimer: Brie is a cheese, and also a region outside Paris, not a city. The two main cities where Brie is produced are Meaux and Melun.
