Last time I was in Paris two years ago, a carafe of "table wine" was 3 Euro, versus 4 Euro for coke at the same restaurant. In Spain, where I was just three weeks ago, soda and wine were equal in price, while beer (even Estrella de Galicia) was pricier.

In Spain, you must also remember to 1. avoid all tourist/fast food outlets, even the local places like VIPs and 2. NOT to eat in the "restaurant" section of a Tapas bar, as they increase the prices for the same food fivefold (in the case of a place I went to in Sevilla). Talk to the locals, or at least the front desk clerk.

BTW: There are excellent reasons NOT to travel with young children to any place besides Disney. Going out to restaurants is one of them.
