I can't remember the exact price. But it was around 20% for crew discount and another 19% for tax refund. Total: 600 IIRC when the CC bill came. The funny thing is I wasn't even planning on getting one. I just happened to run into the same stewardess I flew with two weeks prior and we started chatting. Somehow we led to a good carry-on topic and she mentioned to me about her discount. So we went straight to the shop after arrival (it was 5min from FRA) and voila.

Even with today's Germany's price works out about that number when you tack on all the discounts.
