Picked up a 16GB HP USB drive for 7.99 in Dundrum yesterday. It's in a dark blue packaging.

There's also some 16GB HP drives in a light blue pack, I'm not sure what they're priced at.

There was one dark blue drive left in Dundrum, I kept it behind the light blue ones in case a boardsie would like to have it.

Where are you? they could be in the stock room of the larger Tesco stores. I can give you the barcode number and the customer service desk can check if they are in stock.

In Arklow Tesco Extra I got a 1.2m RF lead for 26c. They also had 2-person dome tents at €21 - half price. Plenty there.

I didn't spot this listed in the thread so here goes.

LG 32LD450 (saorview ready 32" full hd LCD) in Mahon Point for €249. On display but didn't ask about stock.

Edit - see this was already covered in post 78 on this thread where it was said it was marked 299 but scanned 249 - it's now marked €249.

I'd say clearwater would be the best one to try. They def got them, it's just weather they all sold out or not.

Try ringing the store and asking for the manager of health and beauty. They should know if they have them.

There's a good few of these gold plated HDMI leads in Maynooth for €1.92.

FYI, if you move to a 'smart' meter electricity plan, you CAN'T move back to a non-smart plan.

Clearwater must be the worst to get a bargain in, the staff grab everything, one of them saw me looking for flash drives a few months back, smiled and said "too late pal"

That staff member should have not said anything if you didn't specifically ask for assistance.

To actually observe a customer and pass a comment when you were just browsing is just cheap behaviour.

Thanks for posting, I checked Douglas today on the off chance that they might have some of the 4x AA rechargeables and I was surprised to see 2 packets staring me in the face. They were the only thing I really needed from both this and the original Tesco bargains thread!
Didn't see much other bargains but they did have the Nutrodol Car air fresheners for 70c, a Tesco Dab Alarm clock for €13ish. A couple of empty spaces where there was ariel (with febreeze or something) and bold white something or other which the shelf label said they were down from about 8 to about 2 euro.

Interesting. They certainly were not there a few days ago - I searched the entire display thoroughly and they had 3x and 5x but no 4x.
Must swing by again....

€7.99 for the PNY Manufactured 16GB HP v195b USB Flash Drive. These are suprisingly fast. Made by PNY, so the quality must be above a certain level. Rebranded by HP, obviously.

Picked up in Tesco Ballybrack, at an ungodly hour today.. No idea if there's more floating about.

The 8GB, in the same range, are priced at €12.95, as far as I can tell.

Oddly, every one of the sticks I bought had track marks on the USB contact strips, as if they'd been pulled in and out of a socket a few times already.

Plastic heat sealed packaging with card glued on top, so, they might be factory refurbs, who knows.

Case is all plastic this year, the same model last year, again on offer at Tesco, had a 'metallic' finish on the top side of the case. Everything is plastic now.

EDIT: Here's my photos on the model from the megathread last year, when they were priced at €12 euro.

They were both actually on the front of the display of the other Duracel AAs, when I saw them I thought that someone had scanned them and put them back because they were full price! But no, both scanned at the €1.40!! So when they refill the display again it might be worth a shot!! Seems very random that there were only 2 of them and both at the front.
