Any body else getting this,restaurants adding a charge for covid.Mrs S just went to Picard for some frozen snack bits and was asked if she wanted to round up to the next full Euro,you guessed it,because of covid.

Not up till now, but we're off to the big city on Saturday, so who knows what will happen there.....

When I say big city, I'm being facetious, anything with a population of over 20,000 is a big city in this neck of the woods

Nothing like that going on down here, in fact it all seems remarkably normal in the Aude!

I would check,it’s only 25 cents or so but still,a bit of a cheek when there were Government loans etc available.

I got a text message from “DHL” stating that I needed to pay 1.5€ to disinfect my parcel. Follow the link.
However I’m in UK and no parcels expected
Good try for 1.5€

Is it to do with people not wanting a load of small change from unknown sources.

Our standard baguette is 90cents, so I just hand over €1 and walk.

Our favourite restaurant has increased their set menu by €1.5. But the restrictions have reduced the maximum number covers from 22 to 15, so, in the circumstance, I think that it’s reasonable.

Better to pay a bit extra than lose the benefit of the service. Things are going to be tough out there.
