    Ok I know I can buy it in Holland & Barrett, I've bought it there previously when it was on a half price offer. I checked in the shop on Grafton Street yesterday and it's back to it's full price - €22. I'll be damned if I'm paying that much for it. They also have a cheaper brand, for €16/17. Again, too dear.

    I'm almost sure I bought a jar of it for €5 in a Dunnes somewhere, but any Dunnes I've searched since I haven't been able to find it.

    Can anyone suggest shops that sell it for a reasonable price? Do Asian shops stock it? Which ones? Or if Dunnes do sell it, which Dunnes? Thanks.

    MyProtein do it but, again, it's pretty expensive at €11.99 plut €4.95 delivery. It may be an option if you're planning to order other products from myProtein anyway.

    I got mine in superquinn, extra virgin stuff aswell IIRC and I think someone else said you can get it in Dunnes. The Organic Supermarket I would bet would have some, as would Nourish in town just off grafton st.

    yep..

    Thanks everyone.

    For those that said Dunnes, which one? I've tried a few and they don't stock it.

    I know my local supermarket back home has it. I am going home this weekend and intend to stock up if you would like me to pick up a tub for you OP. Think they are about a fiver per tub.

    Been using it the last few months and love it!!

    Bloody hell but €20 for coconut oil is downright obscene.
    Any of the Asian stores in Dublin CC have tubs of it , for in around a fiver.

    The Asian stores are brilliant value all round , great place to stock up on rice and other staples.
