I'm very sorry about my previous hiccough

best buy/best price/best value
These are some examples of what are used for "premier prix" on packaging and in aisles. It depends on where it is being used. It can also be refered to as "entry-level price" or even "every day low price" (EDLP).

bargain
Just another one to add into the melting pot; although of course it doesn't per se mean 'a bargain' (as a noun), shops often talk about their 'bargain range', for example (using it as an adjective)
Just as a general note, 'premier...' used like this always means 'the cheapest' (first on the price list) — you find it a lot with restaurants, where the 'premier menu' is the lowest-priced one.

Couple of suggestions.
Has this not been queried before???

It has been asked before, but in a different context.

"Discount" is another alternative that I don't think has been suggested yet.
We sometimes jokingly refer to these things as bottom-shelf stuff because that's where it tends to be put in our local Leclerc/Super U!!

Thanks, Tony. To be fair to Miranda, I didn't find w/a's link but the one found by Mara which relates to a different field. I don't think terms such as "entry level" can be used here.

French Foodie
: yes, it has. It was about cars, though, but still might be helpful for Asker: http://www.proz.com/kudoz/1154347 //the selected answer wouldn't apply, but they do also mention best price and bargain range, which I think would work well in this context...

Thanks, Mara. I don't think the various responses given in answer to JS's query apply here though.

Thanks for the tip re. Google. KudoZ's built-in search feature is its weak point, IMHO.
