Celles-ci présentent l'avantage d'être dans une galerie marchande avec des horaires plus souples et surtout un parking, ce qui est non négligeable.

Incredibly RUDE Cashier Staff. We go to the only open checkout line. The other line was staffed…read morebut "not available". We are second in line, behind a woman who was putting her items on the belt and chatting away with the cashier. The cashier IGNORED us entirely. No "Bonjour"! As is very customary in France. We are buying One Sandwich. So then the customer in front of us stopped putting items on the belt. The belt is covered in items and the Cashier does nothing about it! She just keeps chatting with the customer - it is clearly social - and no issues with any items. 3 Full Minutes Pass. No items are being rung up. The cashier keeps having a conversation with the lady in front of us - and ignoring us entirely. Remember - there is no self-checkout and no other line to use. So, we finally just give up. We leave our one item on the belt and start to walk out. Suddenly, the Cashier starts barking at us in a nasty tone "where do we think we are going"?! And that we can't leave until she checks my wife's purse and my backpack. LOL That's not happening. You don't get to treat us this way then think you can impose your will on us - which is against French law. This was our first visit to Monoprix - and our LAST! MONOPRIX - We are DONE WITH YOU - FOREVER.

The dude in front of me has a single box of cereal. And he appears to be getting tired of waiting…read more He steps out of line walks out of view for a second then out the store. The cashier tells the security guy as though this is a normal, daily routine. Security guy hustles out and a minute later security guy, cereal and shoplifter return. They go in the back and before I can relay the whole story to my wife Mr. Shoplifter is walking back out. No more free cereal for you!

I really like this department stores, ton's of useful items to purchase…read more Here, in America, this place is like our Walgreens Store chain. Tip: look up where the Monoprix stores are located; you can find most of your travelling items like meds,soaps and low cost towels here.
