Every day I see flyers stuck under windshield wipers in cars parked along the street. I don't know why, but I've been collecting them for over a year now. A slice of Paris life.

I have no knowledge of or vested interest in the establishments advertised in these flyers.

Talky


Forfait is another one of those faux amis. It means "plan," i.e., a calling plan or package. Not forfeit.

Am I imagining or are they advertising 2 hours per month for €22,90 (which would be $33.97)? I had heard that cell phone usage was expensive in France, but that's just crazy.

Interesting.

I don't look at these too closely. Is that price perhaps for the two?
