Bonjour tout le monde! What's your favorite French grocery store and why? Have you been to Monoprix? Did you watch until the end (wink::wink)? Also, feel free to let me know what you'd like to see featured in a future Things I Love! Merci!
Those are cool Francophile shopping bags. I would like to see pricing with weight or unit size .
I enjoy shopping at Monoprix while in France. I fell in love with La Petite Marseillais products.
I do like shopping at Carrefour when I am in France. Would that be comparable to Monoprix in terms of pricing? One thing I remember from visiting France is one of the grocery stores had a jeweller in the store. I was surprised by that. Honey, I am going to the store to pick up some eggs and diamonds!😂
Thanks for this video I like how you show everything in such good detail. Iv traveled up quite few places in the world I go crazy for French supermarket Auchan supper-u carfour i do like Monoprix list could go on
Those are cool Francofile shopping bags! Love your grocery videos!
Those are cool Francophile shopping bags! I miss Monoprix. Glad they are still around. I went there often when I was studying in Strasbourg 40 years ago.
Anytime I travel, I love to visit local supermarkets...whether in the states or abroad. Apart from being a foodie, I just love getting a better sense of the local community. Thanks for sharing such a variety of food stores in France, including Monoprix. You’re a woman after my own heart when it comes to food shopping, Diane! Besides picking up snacks or picnic treats, I love picking up a variety of their store brand cookies and whatnot to bring home as little presents for people whenever I am in Paris. Those are some cool Francophile shopping bags!
I live in Switzerland and we call it a Raclette machine not a fondue machine. Those for raclette just melt the cheese in the pan. You serve it with potatoes and the melted cheese slice slips of the small pan over the potatoes. Fondue pots are something different that one heats wine, cheese and perhaps kirsch to melt the cheese and then one can dip bread into the pot. :)
Good definition of the 2 / The difference is raclette you have your own plate and fondue is one pot for everybody (each one dives pieces of bread into the cheese pot)
OMG! When you started explaining how the public toilet works, I was laughing at myself. Was in Paris in 2016 and needed to use a bathroom really really bad. Went into one just as someone exited, without looking at the lights at door. And yes, I was in there with the wash cycle too. Door opens, I go out and go right back in, door opens with my pants down! Will never forget that funny experience. BTW, those are cool Francophile shopping bags!!!
Made me laugh, I cannot lie...
🤔🤔J'ai l'impression que vous avez été traumatisé par cette expérience.
Monoprix used to be my first stop in Paris before my nap! BUTTER!!!! Those are cool Francophile shopping bags. Also, love the toilet demo-that was a new thing back in 1985 when I first visited Paris. Thank you, Diane!
I was in Paris 2 years ago for my grandson's 10th Birthday. We stayed in the 15th and there was a large Monoprix store that we explored. Thanks for the tour and a sweet memory. Those are cool Francophile shopping bags!
I agree Monoprix is the closest French equivalent to Target. The last time I was there, I bought wine and an Alsatian wine glass. Oh and, Diane, those are cool Francophile shopping bags!
My boyfriend is addicted to your channel! He was a French major at UT Austin and he studied in France for a year in Lyon. :) Great content! We can’t wait to visit the country once we get on the other side of this pandemic! Merci! Those are cool Francophile shopping bags!
🇨🇵🇨🇵🇨🇵❤️❤️❤️🇨🇵🇨🇵🇨🇵
Yes! Love grocery store tours! Thank you! Those are cool Francophile shopping bags! And, the story on getting stuck in the public bathroom during cleaning...haha!! I would have been mortified!
I love your grocery store videos! Monoprix is my go-to store when in Paris. Also, those are some cool Francophile shopping bags.
Since my career was as a product rep I really enjoy seeing the variety in your shopping trips. You give a helpful description too. Those are cool Francophile shopping bags! Should I win I will give it to my daughter in law who has a real love of France.
I loved the Monoprix when I was in Paris, I still have my shopping bag, a cashmere sweater and a beret I bought there! It was a great adventure for shopping. Thank you for sharing this trip with us!
Bonjour, Oui in Franc!. Those are cool Francophile shopping bags. Ever since my first French class in high school I've been a Francophile. Thank you for your witty, exciting, and tres informative videos. All the best, Linda Elaine, West Palm Beach, FL.
Monoprix is the best. I love their cheese sampler plates. A good portion for two of quality cheeses. Not badly priced. Those are cool Francophile shopping bags.
I love shopping at Monoprix when I am in France. I also love the sacs and I usually get one or two on my trips. I really like the ones you purchased in the video. Those are cool Francophile shopping bags!
I found 3 silk shirts on a discount rack in a Monoprix near the Bastille in Paris 5-6 years ago. I'm hard to fit on any day but these fit right off the rack. They're a different weave of silk that needs no ironing. Wash, don't wring just hang them up dripping wet and they dry in 30 mins without a wrinkle. At 20 euro each I still have all 3 and wear them regularly. Fantastic quality. Now, I always visit the Monoprix in every large French city I visit.
Good video. I'm watching and waxing nostalgic. I so want to be in France.
I have been to the Monoprix many times when in Paris and Valence. "Those are cool Francophile shopping bags." I can't wait until we can visit France again. Thanks Diane.
We absolutely love Monoprix and Franprix. Excellent places for snacks and souvenirs. Those are cool Francophile shopping bags.
It is traditional to eat crepes on Candlemas (Feb. 2nd) which is the last day of Christmas. Those are such neat pans.Great video too!
Those are cool Francophile shopping bags!
Bonjour Dianne! Those are cool Francophile shopping bags. Love Monoprix and will be happy when the world opens up again.
Thanks for the vicarious fix of touring French grocery stores. Always fun, always an adventure.
Those are cool Francophile shopping bags! I love shopping in the grocery stores. There are a bunch of gifts to buy and bring home. Thanks for the fun content.
I miss shopping at monoprix in Paris. Can't wait until the skies are open again. Love your channel and content!! Those are cool Francophile shopping bags!! Stay safe!
Thanks for all your work on this. What I could not see at all were prices, which is a main need in a grocery store video to understand daily life and budgeting. Next time you do a shop tour, could you please include? Thank you!
I went to a Monoprix a month ago and was so overwhelmed at all the fun stuff there that I didnt end up getting anything. Ugh. Ended up missing out on the awesome reusable bags of course as well. We are planning to go back next year and for sure will buy a bunch of clothes and stuff from Monoprix and other shops ❤️ Too bad I missed out on all your generous and fun giveaways! Thanks for all you do for all of us 😊
Those are cool Francophile shopping bags 💝 I love Monop’ I do miss grocery shopping in France! The yogurt and chocolate aisles are crazy 🤪
Those are cool francophile shopping bags! Even having French as an official language in Canada, we mostly find only English bags... I have a Monop' bag from my trip to France years ago and I still love using it!
I miss shopping at MONOPRIX at Paris. I got their reusable shopping tote at check out, and they are my fav reusable grocery bag. Thank you for the video. Those are cool Francophile shopping bags! Can't wait for the lockdown to be over, so we can travel again.
Those are cool Francophile shopping bags. They really are a fun and inexpensive souvenir and I enjoyed shopping at Monoprix when I was in Paris . The public bathrooms in Paris are so convenient. I love your grocery store videos!
Those are cool Francophile shopping bags. And I love your channel. The food, the scenery, your intelligent point of view. This video was great. Monoprix is one of my favorite stores in France. I describe it to people as "French Target." Thanks for the tour!
I love Monoprix when in France and always tell friends. Great clothes too. Those are cool Francophile shopping bags! Merci Diane.
I love all your food vlogs in the bakery and supermarkets. I would spend a fortune in that shop when its a shop that not close to home I buy all the nice treats you can't buy at the local shops those are lovely Francophile shopping bags
I love Monoprix. When I was in Paris,, the hair dryer in the apartment t I stayed was not working. I bought a European hair dryer at Monoprix. And wine! And produce. Everything there was so pretty! Those are cool francophile shopping bags.
Thanks for making these videos. I so want to go back to France - maybe in 2022 this pandemic will be over. Keep up the awesome work!
Wow thank you for taking us shopping with you! Those are cool Francophile shopping bags. Super neat to tuck away! Have a beautiful day!!
I have just discovered your videos. I've been going to France to visit family since 1971 and know Paris well - and I LOVE your videos. And yes, you bet I shop at Monoprix.
Your grocery store videos are soooo helpful! My husband and I will be coming to France the end of November for 18 months. We are so excited, and now you've given me an idea of how we will shop. And we will NEED your shopping bags! Those are cool Francophile shopping bags!!
You shop like I do. I still delight in all the monoprix goodies! 😅 I love walking through monoprix. They have such beautiful design on all their packages
My wife and daughter absolutely love Monoprix. I swear we go there almost everyday when we visit Paris. We also love your content so we can relive our trips to France.
Hello, can I ask you why? what changes to your stores? 😊
Normally we go to France twice every year, but of course we couldn't in 2020. I MISS a French supermarket so much. Thank you for taking me to Monoprix. Hopefully we will be able to go to France this year. Those are cool Frankophile shopping bags.
Really like your videos. Whenever and wherever I travel I always enjoy going to the grocery stores to find unique items and get a feel for the culture. Those are cool Francophile shopping bags.
We really enjoy the grocery store tours - Thanks very much. And those shopping bags - Those are cool Francophile shopping bags ! They really are !
I love Monoprix and visit anytime I'm in France. Those are cool Francophile shopping bags. Please continue with your videos. I enjoy them. Thank you!
Those are cool Francophile shopping bags. I love touring grocery stores in other countries. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Bonjour! Those are cool Francophil shopping bags! French grocery stores are wonderful; I always find great items to bring home. Merci!
Those are cool Francophile shopping bags!! I love Supermercados .. Grocery store.. name it ,I love it!! Thanks for showing the prices and varieties.
Ah Monoprix ! I could spend a whole day there ! I live in Tokyo, I love it here BUT I still miss Monoprix like crazy. I guess if there was a Monop’ in Tokyo, it would be heaven on earth lol ! Because as much as I love France too, Japan wins hands down as far as toilets are concerned ! Thank you for the great channel. It makes me miss France 🇫🇷
Really loved the tour of MONOPRIX. Those are really cool Francophile shopping bags.
Aw, I studied abroad in Nantes in 1996-97 - the institute where I studied was on the rue des Cadeniers, though I also took some courses at the university as well. Such wonderful memories of riding the tram and spending time with friends at Place Graslin and going to the movie theater that was right down by the river... I lived on Beaulieu and mostly shopped at the Carrefour, but every now and again I would stop in at Monoprix. Those are cool Francophile shopping bags!
I love watching your supermarket videos to see the great products you have in France. Those are cool Francophile shopping bags.
Those are cool Francophile shopping bags and I love the supermarket I could go crazy with meats, cheeses and butter Thank you for showing us.
Those are cool Francophile Shopping bags :) My husband would bring home boxes of French grocery souvenirs every year...thank you for giving me a virtual grocery trip :) Cannot wait to get back to France.
I, too, enjoyed shopping at Monoprix many years ago in Paris. Those are cool francophile shopping bags. I wish I was there shopping with you.
Bonjour, Those are cool Francophile shopping bags. I’ve been enjoying your channel tons. This past month I have dived back into expanding my French vocabulary and as I have, it’s making me want to visit more and more. So, learning and living vicariously through your channel. Thank you for all the hard work you put into your videos!
Monoprix is a great store to visit, has lovely food and home items as well as trendy and classic clothing and sleep ware. It is in large cities and larger towns. Always fun to visit! Those are cool Francophile shopping bags!
Those are cool Francophile shopping bags! It’s fun catching up with all your videos.
Merci, Ron Kielar your neighborhood Pharmacist
All my colleagues enjoyed your French Pharmacy video! Keep up your great blogs
Those are cool Francophile shopping bags!
I love grocery stores and I even make time on vacation to visits grocery stores...it’s my favorite me time activity abroad. I love watching your channel. Since we are traveling watching you shop feels like my kind of vacation.
It is so very nice of you to give away those bags. Those are cool Francophile shopping bags. They will certainly get a lot of use, I'm sure. BTW, store tour vidoes are my favorite!
There is not a Monoprix near me now, but there were 2 close to me when I lived in Rennes. One was in a mall like setting with clothes, home goods and make up as well as food. The other was inside the Galeries Lafayette. I found that one to be quite posh. I found fresh cranberries there one Thanksgiving and could usually find difficult to find American/British foods. However, I don’t remember such cute shopping bags! Those are cool francophone shopping bags! Oh-thanks for including your 3 favorite blogs. Besides yours, I tend to following baking/food blogs. I look forward to checking out your three. Take care and be safe!
Those are cool Francophile shopping bags! This was a fun video (they all are), thanks. My favorite part was the dessert section, and the clothes too! Loved the coats. Thanks!
Those are COOL FRANCOPHILE SHOPPING BAGS!!! I know this is a repeat video but hey, thought I'd give it a try! Enjoy!
Bonjour! Bringing back so many good memories of France 🇫🇷 for me!!
BTW.... Those are cool Francophile shopping bags 🛍!!
Merci pour votre chaîn! 🤗😊🙏🏻👍🏻
Those are cool Francophile shopping bags

Thanks for your tours of shops and bakeries they are really interesting videos.
We love Monoprix when we are in France! Those are cool Francophile shopping bags! Love the grocery store videos! Our favorite thing to do is always visit grocery stores throughout the world.
Those are cool Francofile shopping bags! I especially like the Paris print. I enjoyed the Monoprix tour.
Monoprix saved the day for us when we arrived in Paris -- minus our luggage! I thoroughly enjoyed the tour, and it brought back fond memories. Those are cool Francophile shopping bags. I wish I had bought one the last time I was in France.
The comment was written by Annette. How strange that it came up with my husband's name!
Those are cool Francophile shopping bags! Would love to fill them with goodies on my next visit to France. Love these visits to shoppes and stores. Merci beaucoup.
I think that the videos you make are so helpful. I can say that they are surely helping me a lot for when I go in September. As well as those are cool Francophile shopping bags! They are so convenient as small and can work in so many ways.
Hi Diane. Still in covid rehabilitation center. Excellent production and content. Always enjoy Mono prix even the smaller ones in Paris. I was caught in the WC wash cycle in Cherbourg back in 2009. Fun experience. Those are cool Francophile shopping bags.
Love, love, love French grocery store videos. Monoprix is right there on top!! Cheese section is my fav but . . . . . Those are cool Francophile shopping bags
One of the most interesting things I do when I visit a new place is check out the supermarkets. I love your supermarket videos - It's good to hear how these French brands are pronounced as I see them also in my local stores. Thanks for always sharing a lot of information. Those are cool Francophile shopping bags! :)
Those are cool Francophile shopping bags!
Awesome video! I love seeing what grocery stores in other countries have that we don't have here in Canada!
Merci!
Those are cool Francophile shopping bags! Thanks for the tip about the public restrooms! Great insider info.
My boyfriend and I thought we were the only ones obsessed with overseas supermarkets until we started searching for RUclips videos on them. When we travel the first places we hit aren’t museums or famous landmarks but SUPERMARKETS!! As a souvenir, I ❤️ collecting reusable bags from various stores - Sainsbury’s, F&M, Harrod’s, Yata, etc. Finally made it to Paris in 2019 and picked up a bag from Carrefour but I didn’t see the ones when we frequented Monoprix!!! 😥 Those are cool Francophile shopping bags. I really adore the Paris icons one but it’s the idea behind them - reuse. Looking forward to viewing your other videos. Great content!
Those are cool Francophile shopping bags! The Paris ones are so cute and to die for!! 💕🍾🎁👜🇫🇷
Thank you for such a detailed trip of the market. Those are cool Francophile shopping bags, specialty the one with the Paris icons.
"Those are cool Francophile shopping bags", said my 4yr old daughter after watching your supermarket video. We may be living vicariously through your videos at the moment. We were originally booked to meet up with my husband who has been deployed for awhile now for 2weeks in Paris and surrounding areas in February 2021. As we're in Australia aren't allowed to leave the country that dream has been put on hold.
Those are cool Francophile shopping bags. I sure do miss France and can't wait until the pandemic is over. I love that you film in Nantes. My French host parents, who passed away in 2018, lived just outside of Nantes in their retirement.
Bonjour Diane!
Merci beaucoup for sharing interesting things about France. I like your new ending of favorite things as a bonus moment. Those are cool Francophile shopping bags, by the way. I am a “floral person ... just letting you know .
Appreciate the links, especially during these isolated times. I do enjoy your jaunts to the local stores, which are often missed when one is a tourist. Those are cool Francophile shopping bags in today’s post. In the 70s, when I lived with my aunt in Italy during a summer, she always had cloth string bags for shopping. It amazes me today that Americans just recently made reusable shopping bags a thing. Those do make great gifts and maybe a gift bag! Thanks again for the little trip around Paris.
I'm impressed that the toilet cabañas appear to be plumbed into the city's water system (rather than being like porta-potties that need to be emptied periodically). That's so civilized. I wonder if that would work in the winter months of my colder climate. I love it that the French eat crêpes on Candlemas and two weeks later on Shrove Tuesday the British eat pancakes. Those are cool Francophile shopping bags.
Thanks for a great video. I love French grocery stores. I could wander for a ridiculous amount of time. Those are cool Francophile shopping bags!
Bonjour! Hi Diane and everyone. I'm a big fan of your blog, watching from Louisville, Kentucky. I hope things improve so we can travel to our beloved France in 2021. Those are cool Francophile shopping bags! Merci for the video!
Those are cool Francophone shopping bags! Loved your video. Made me a little "homesick" for France. Wandering in a Monoprix is a fun rainy day thing to. You never know what little treasures you're going to find. Thanks for the interesting videos. 🥂
Thanks for another great video. Love the grocery store tours. Those are cool Francophile shopping bags!
Enjoying all your shopping trips and food tasting! Those are cool Francophile shopping bags!
Those are cool Francophile shopping bags. I love Monoprix! It's one of the stores I visited when I was on a study abroad trip a few years ago. I purchased a really cute sweater there and pillows that I use in my living room. A funny story, I almost got in trouble with the security at Monoprix. I wore the sweater I'd purchased a few days before at Monoprix in Lyon to another Monoprix in Paris. I didn't realize there was a security tag sewn in so I set off all the alarms when I entered. Security was on me quick. Thankfully, I was JUST competent enough in French to explain myself and they helped me out by removing the tag so it wouldn't happen again. lol.
Those are cool Francophile shopping bags! Back when I lived in Paris, I used to stop by a monoprix close to my university between classes to pass the time. Such great memories, and it’s so cool how many new things they have now!
I love the grocery store tours. Thanks! Those are cool Francophile shopping bags!
Always go to Monoprix when we are in Paris for my husband’s annual attendance at a convention- only place we can find Suchard chocolates. Family fave.
(Those are cool francophile shopping bags BTW!) Merci et bonne nuit.
Those are cool Francophile shopping bags. Had one from 10 years ago when we were in Paris. Since then, I always go to Monoprix in Paris on every trip. I think prices are great! Enjoyed your presintention.
“THOSE ARE COOL FRANCOPHILE SHOPPING BAGS “
We really love all your videos hopefully in the near future we can visit France 🇫🇷... the videos are informative and fun... Thank you!!!
Good video, grocery stores are fun to see. Every city I have been to I explore them like a museum. 😂These bags are so useful and I have used these and produce bags for years. I keep 1/2 dozen in my purse and use them for everything, even better being able to launder them during a global pandemic. Those are cool Francophile shopping bags. 😎. Stay safe, stay well.
My first time in Paris I headed to Monoprix as I heard so many vlogs mention it. I call them Ulta/ H&M/ 7-11 combo.
Love your grocery store videos and those you got are some cool Francophile shopping bags.
Thank you for showing us our favorite French super market, Monoprix. Those are cool Francophile shopping bags.
Bonjour Diane! Love your channel. Enjoyed the trip to Monoprix.
Those are cool Francophile shopping bags!
Those are cool Francophile shopping bags! I really do love them, as well as all of your videos. Monoprix seems like a really cool store. I also found the public toilets interesting. The fact that they are self-cleaning is great. We really need them here in America. Looking forward to the next video!
Thanks so much for the video, I especially love the grocery store ones. 😊 Those are cool Francophile shopping bags!
Those are cool Fracophile shopping bags. Diane, I love your channel. I lived in Ireland as an expat for 6 years and spent almost all my vacation time exploring France, especially Alsace-Lorraine where a portion of my family originates. Bonne journee!
