Buying a booster seat in Paris: Ou est Babies R Us?

I'm going to need to buy a car booster seat for my son while we're in Paris, before we leave for 2 weeks in Italy.

Are there hypermarkets or "Big Box" stores where I could do this cheaply within Paris?

On this trip, we won't be bringing a booster seat from home, and previous experience with car rental agency-provided seats hasn't been good.

Where should I look?

There is a large hypermarket from Auchan in La Defense (http://www.auchan.fr/magasin/accueil...PageMagasin=-1). I am pretty sure that they have car-seats and booster seats.
The store is to be found at the end of line 1 (La Defense). About 10 min. from L'Arc de Triomph/Champs Elyssee. It is located in the Quatre Temps mall (http://www.les4temps.com/)

There are several more hypermarkets around Paris (Carrefour, Auchan, Cora). But this one is one of easiest to reach from the center of Paris. Most of the others are to be found near the exits of the highways around Paris.

Thanks to you both (and what prompt replies!).

The closest I have ever been to La Defense is the view from the Arc de Triomphe; this errand will expand my horizons.

Thanks again for your help. I feel reassured.

Toys'r Us and Achaun are in the same mall. It is probably good checking out the prices!
