Thanks to Kinneret Rosenbloom for suggesting 20 "super-over priced Parisian items" and winning the much coveted 'Elles' catalogue.

I would like to add any form of continued education for adults: guitar, Access database, painting restoration, speed reading and just about any other kind of class I’ve looked into!
To me Mobicarte isn’t a rip off – but Orange forfaits can be! Mobicarte is less expensive for me than the cheapest forfait plan, and there’s no engagement.
Thanks for the list – confirms a few things I was thinking myself!
Zénith? How can a venue be a rip off? Prices here are far cheaper than in other venues around the city. Haircuts? You can get one for 6 Euros round my way!
