Excellent news...and not a moment too soon.

When Monoprix launches in-store brick and mortar payments in BTC I'll definitely be going to France to do some shopping!

As far as I know, they are "only" planning to add it to their e-commerce sites for now.

Still, this is GREAT news for the community. Adoption is the most important thing right now IMHO

EDIT: (from the article)

Envisagez-vous d'accepter les bitcoins uniquement sur le site marchand de Monoprix, ou également en magasin via une application mobile ?

La priorité serait le site, mais nous abordons toujours simultanément les canaux Web et mobile. Donc par extension, les magasins seraient sans doute concernés aussi. D'autant que nous travaillons par ailleurs sur un projet de paiement mobile en magasin.

Do you plan to accept bitcoins only on the merchant website, or in brick and mortar shops as well using a mobile application?

Priority would be given to the the website, but we always address both Web and mobile channels simultaneously. So it implies that brick and mortar shops would certainly be concerned as well. Furthermore, we are working on a mobile payment project in our stores.
