    And avoid buying 400g Charleville cheese in Spar at The Crescent unless you have 5.49 euros :eek::eek::eek:

    I've just checked Tesco price online and it's €4.99 - so to be honest, given that Spars are usually more expensive by a lot, 10% extra isn't outrageous IMO

    Do what I do: if they tut at you and roll their eyes for interrupting their conversation, tut and roll your eyes back at them.

    Yeah some of the dunnes stores scobie type staff would get a rude awakening if they ever had to work in Lidl or Aldi, they wouldn't last an hour. In fairness anyone working in Lidl or Aldi has to have a proactive and high work ethic from what I can see. A lot of multi tasking, always seem to be on the go.

    I was in Eurospar Hartstown last week getting the baguettes that you finish baking yourself in the oven, Cuisine de France were 1.50 and seen then Spar's own brand were 1.00 so I said I'll try Spar's brand. Got to the till price comes up 1.50 I said there 1.00 he said I'll go check and comes back and says no there 1.50! I was 100% certain there were 1.00 so I said there not and walked down with him and showed him the price of 1.00 and he goes ok I'll give them to you for 1.00 like he was doing me a favour:eek: ... Im sick of that shop always overcharging for everything they sell :mad:

    If they are always doing so, why do you keep going back giving them your custom?

    They weren't obliged to do that. A price on a shelf is an "invitation to treat" legally speaking. For the record, Dunnes part baked baguettes are the nicest around and 59c!
