Did you think that Lidl and Action stores had a monopoly on good deals? Make no mistake, this French store beats them hands down when it comes to equipping and decorating your home.
If you’re hunting for bargains at discounters like Lidl and Action, there’s one chain store you should definitely know about. The reason? It is much less expensive than its competitors and there are countless practical and decorative references for furnishing, decorating and organizing the house, from floor to ceiling.
When you pass through the store doors, you can be a little unsettled by the presentation: items are often placed directly in boxes or directly on pallets in order to reduce costs and facilitate restocking. There is therefore a side of Ali Baba’s cave since you will have to search a little to find the best nuggets for the house. And they are there in the aisles: depending on arrivals, we find crockery, storage accessories, household linens, candles, lamps, vases… And even furniture. DIY products are also very well represented on the shelves, practical for avoiding increasing the cost of your decorating project. Please note that some references are permanent and others are clearance items or seasonal collections, but all are offered at much lower prices than usual.
To ensure you don’t miss any of the discounter’s good deals, a prospectus is offered regularly and, naturally, the month of January is dedicated to whitewashing and home organization. You can transform your room with a new bed set for 15 euros, treat yourself to a cozy duvet for 20 euros or even two pillows for 10 euros. In terms of storage, plastic boxes are available from 7 euros and furniture from 30 euros. Enough to realize your decorative desires without breaking the bank.
Created in 2004 by three brothers, the French family business Marché auxaffaires is such a hit that it now has around 350 stores throughout the country and is counting on the opening of more than 30 new addresses by the end of the year. Last December, the brand even opened the largest discount store in France in Vaucluse.
And for those who would like to save even more, the free loyalty card allows you to earn 3 points per euro spent. From 500 points, you will unlock a 5 euro voucher to treat yourself.
