JeanS Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 Has anyone used one of the online shopping companies - if so which one? I've looked at a few but their drop off points are miles away. I'm in 36 near Ste.Severe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeanS Posted June 15, 2011 Author Share Posted June 15, 2011 Thanks - that's the one. Need to change the .com to .co.ukStill undecided whether to use them or not.Will the 20% fee they charge be a deciding factor I wonder - will my stock of Roobios tea last till the next visitor arrives????

Clair Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 [quote user="JeanS"]... will my stock of Roobios tea last till the next visitor arrives????[/quote]Have you tried buying it in France?I don't know how much it costs you in UK, but I do know I can buy it from the local bio-coop.My drink of choice is peppermint herbal tea, which costs a bomb over here. Instead, I have to make do with a mint-liquorice tisane from Casino, which is an adequate substitute at an affordable price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Théière Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Can't you just grow your own mint? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clair Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Yes, I grow my own mint, and I have 4 patches of mint gradually spreading over... but I do drink a lot of it (a pack of 25 bags lasts about 2 days) and it doesn't grow in winter (and before you ask, I don't grow enough to drink and to dry for winter consumption [:)])I used to buy it in lots of 2 boxes of 20 packs of 25 bags, direct from Twinings, but they don't ship to France...Edit: actually, it seems they do ship to France now! [:-))]Last time I asked, they gave me a contact in Paris who never replied to my email (surprise...)and they do do Rooibos too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyh4 Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 I don't suppose you ahve looked in Aldi or Lidl? Both stock these teas in Germany but it is not something I have looked for in France. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeanS Posted June 16, 2011 Author Share Posted June 16, 2011 Thanks for all your suggestions. Have checked Lidl but not Aldi. I did notice that in the market yesterday there was a new stall selling all sorts of loose spices including loose Red Tea - so may buy some next week.

JeanS Posted June 20, 2011 Author Share Posted June 20, 2011 How did you buy from Twinnings - I like their Lemon & Ginger tea. I bought some Lemon tea over here and it tastes quite odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
