Cultural Tip
Loyalty cards (cartes de fidélité) are ubiquitous in French supermarkets, coffee shops, and even small boutiques. They often give points that can be exchanged for discounts or free products. While the informal T'as is fine with friends or familiar shop staff, you should switch to the polite Vous when speaking to a stranger or a manager.
