Why is alcohol cheaper in France?
It is a popular misconception that there are no more savings to be had in Calais. Sure the British Pound isn’t as strong as it used to be, meaning that a day out in France is more expensive. However you can still save AS MUCH AS YOU SPEND when you buy your wine at The Calais Wine Superstore.
The reason for this is excise duty. Excise duty goes up with each year’s Budget regardless of whether the Pound is strong or weak against the Euro.
UK excise duty is 100 times that of France, so the savings to be made in Calais are astounding, irrespective of what the Pound and Euro are doing.
In fact, if the Euro is stronger, it means we can buy more for the same amount, since we buy in Euros. And we pass these savings on to YOU!
