You can write your own parser. See the documentation at: http://tablesorter.com/docs/example-parsers.html

Working example:

$.tablesorter.addParser({ 
    id: 'price', 
    is: function(s) { 
        return false; 
    }, 
    format: function(s) { 
        return s.replace(/Free/,0).replace(/ CHF/,""); 
    }, 
    type: 'numeric' 
}); 

$(function() { 
    $("table").tablesorter({ 
        headers: { 
            1: { 
                sorter:'price' 
            } 
        } 
    }); 
});
