"Nice small grocery store with good variety of varied products."

"Used this shop while on the last four ski holidays. However short changed by €10 despite bringing this to the attention of the staff only to be told they don’t understand. Had to return the following day only to be told the till was correct and was left out of pocket by €10
If you have to use this super market with dishonest staff pay by card be warned.
Will use the other super market round the corner from now on for this ski holiday and all other ski holidays in St Gervais."
