Many small oil suppliers.
What to buy: Each shop sells a slightly different olive oil, but the best thing is you are encouraged to try before you buy, so you can pick the one you like the best.
Also look for speciality wine vinegars, and olive oil soap.
What to pay: Extra virgin olive oil is around 4 -5 euro a litre.
