Student in Paris
 
My daughter is currently studying in Paris and staying near the St Cloud metro stop. She would like to purchase some inexpensive cooking pots and an iron. Any suggestions for stores?

There might have an Auchan, Carrefour or similar nearby as St. Cloud is approaching the suburbs. They would have a large selection and low prices.

I'm sure there's a Monoprix near her but not sure they sell pots or irons. Still, she ought to get to know the local one anyway for food and other items.

I would encourage her to get out in the neighborhood and ask around--great way to learn more French.

BTW, congratulations on having a school-age daughter who irons!

Hi SM,

The local monoprix.

She does get her food at the Monoprix, but I assume they do not have pots or an iron as she is still looking. I will pass on your suggestions to her.

She will be doing an internship, thus the iron. Otherwise, she wouldn't bother.

For the iron:

electromust.com
(It's a store, not only a website)

58 ave Pierre Grenier (the extension of avenue Georges Lafont)
92100 Boulogne-Billancourt

623 meters southwest of métro Porte de Saint Cloud.
