Well Paris isn't the cheapest of places to troll around. With the euro exchange at almost one euro to the pound, bargains are at a premium.
However, we have spent a few days in the French capital and tried to garner a few bargain activities. With exhibition spaces such as the Petit Palais, the Musee Carnavalet and the modern art museum near the Eifel Tower there are some examples of interesting museums that are free. But Paris is of course a perfect city to walk around - the Marais being a perfect example of a place to people watch.
For the first time I discovered the Viaduc des Arts - a former railway viaduct near Bastille where the arches had been converted into artists' spaces. The route of the railway itself is now a walkway with plants and opportunities to sit and contemplate.
We did find one booze deal - Pop In in the 11eme offered three pints of cooking lager for 9 euros.
