Souveniers to buy in France?

Question

I'm going to France on the 31st with a school group and I have no idea what to buy for anyone! I know I need like 20 eiffel tower keychains, so if anyone who has been to Paris knows if they sell them in bulk? haha. I also want to get some more meaningful gifts for my parents, brother, boyfriend, boyfriends parents, and grandparents but I really have no idea what France has to offer. So if anyone who has been there could share the kind of things they saw/bought for their relatives, that would be awesome!

Answer 1

You should know that in France, most ppl don't wear berets except for veterans at Armistice Day commemorations.  I am sure that mom and dad will like clothes.  Cookies and candy make good gifts too.

Answer 2

Well, depending on how cliche you want to be, you can buy berets, and French women always wear scarves, so you'll be able to buy lots of those.  When you go to the Eiffel Tower, there will be lots of people trying to sell you things (even though it's illegal) and you should barter with them to get a lower price on your keychains.  Tell them 5 euros for 20 or something, you might get it.  Also, there will be lots of prints of French art and sites, so you could get those.  Or shirts with famous art and slogans.  Let me know if you know specifically what someone is interested in and I can suggest places.

Answer 3

Some cheese, of course !

Answer 4

Answer 5

You will probably visit places like Eiffel tower and the Louvre, there's plenty of shops with stuff to buy as souvenir.

Answer 6

somthing made in America.  You could buy a pool table over there, but I hear if its made in France is doesn't have any balls.
