    For starts leaving without a deal, mean you might incur on visa fees anytime you want to travel to the EU, plus, flying to and from UK will become way more expensive (tell me if the reasons aren't obvious to you!). On top of this the obvious depreciation of the pound will make holidays expensier, here I will say you are partially right, will make it more expensive to EU as to anywhere else (maybe not to some African country with a faster currency depreciation, that will always be an option!)

    Just in case Math isn't your strong suit, since the referendum the pound dropped ~25% in value compared to the Euro, making effectively ~25% expensier for Brits (or people paid in pounds) to travel to Eurozone! No wonder Dublin feels more expensive than London lately...

    Australian and NZ wine are far better value options than French wine.
    How does a holiday to the continent become more expensive? Are European hotels allowed to charge 30% more to anyone with a UK passport?

    Even with an united front EU would and always will be in a far stronger position than the UK (how hard can be to get it!?!)

    About EU suffering with a no deal, yes a bit, but nothing even close to what you might think/imagine/dream.

    British will still buy Champagne, prosecco, French cheese, Spanish wine etc etc… even if prices go up 10/20/30%. You cant get any of this from US can you!?

    Holidays the same! Even if going on holidays to Europe will go up 10/20/30% will still be the cheapest destination for Brits, why anything relevant would change here!?

    I don't do so well when I try to sell my wares around your council estate. I can barely get past the old sofas to get to your front door
