"~ Very Nice Supermarket & Excellent Prices ~" Supermarkets Tip by Heavens-Mirror

Carrefour is a very large supermarket located in Maadi in Cairo. I found it to be extremely cheap compared to prices here in the UK where i live. Many Egyptians aswell as foreigners such as myself shop here & its the same prices for all.

Carrefour is Egypt's most dynamic, fast-moving and exciting hypermarket chain. A joint venture company by Majid al Futtaim and Carrefour France, this global expertise helps us offer shoppers here in Egypt the same quality, variety and value-for-money that is provided all over the world.
Carrefour offers the widest choice of products you can find anywhere under one roof in a spacious area where you and your family can enjoy shopping for all your needs at the lowest price!

Due to the speed of turnover of products, you can guarantee that the food is always more fresh than anywhere else!
Rest assured that all the electrical products come with a full guarantee!
The idea of a free parking and multiple checkouts makes the shopping experience at Carrefour so convenient for the whole family.

Everyday: 10:00 AM to 01:00 AM
Thursday: 10:00 AM to 02:00 AM

What to buy: Carrefour has many departments with lots of different things to buy, not only does it sell food & drink it also sells comsumer goods, household goods such as stationary, houseware, camping/garden tools, car goods, toys, books, sports & luggage items. It also has a fresh market with lots of meat, fish, pastries & cakes to choose from. There is also a photo shop, Home entertainment such as computers, tv & videos, stereos, music, dvds & clothes. The fresh fruit & vegetables look fresher than ever & are so cheap its unbelievable, a sack of potatoes only costs 3 Egyptian Pounds.

I bought a weeks worth of shopping at Carrefour to feed 6 of us when i was staying with my Dad in Cairo & it only cost 150 Egyptian Pounds. I can spend that in Asda or Tesco in the UK just for 2 of us to eat for one evening!
Just shows you the cost of living in Egypt is much better than the UK!
