Bringing the kids home from school on a hot Spring day? Milkshake's the go!!
So, where to buy one? Well, plenty of places sell milkshakes ... for a minimum of 6 francs a pop! For three (me and two kids) that's hitting 20 francs for a small refreshing drink!
So, alternative? Hit the supermarket at the station, on our way home. Denner's the one - 2L UHT milk (2 francs), 2L vanilla ice cream (3.60 Fr), 6 bananas (2 francs) and, because they're on special, 8 bratwurst for tomorrow's dinner (4.45 Fr - were 13.95!).
So, for 12.05, what have I got? Well, making the milkshakes for everyone (including my wife and our third child!) used up about a quarter of the milkshake supplies ... and we're going to have some great sausages with our rice or potatoes (and vegies) tomorrow night! All for just over half of what three milkshakes would've cost ... with the possibility that the kids will choose to make a milkshake for me tomorrow!
