I got the oven cleaner last week.. absolutely amazing for the racks!

Can't be beat for €1.49.

MentalMario · 19-04-2015 6:27pm

Used that Oven cleaner myself. Ideal if moving in/out of rented accom.

Ovenpride.
I've bought it before at its' normal retail price at around a fiver in other shops.
It's brilliant stuff.

You get a pair of latex gloves, a bottle of solution and a large plastic sealable bag.

You place your oven racks in the bag, along with half the solution. You then leave it somewhere for 4 hours (I leave it outside in the back garden).
Meanwhile, pour the remaining solution into your oven and leave it for 4 hours before cleaning off.

The stuff that comes off is amazing.
You then rinse off the stuff on the racks....gleaming they are!

Sounds great. I'll have to give it a go.

Ok, so I left it on for 6 hours. Oven was dirty but not too bad. The oven itself came up gleaming, honestly it's like new and it's 9 years old. But the racks were only ok. I expected them to come up as new but maybe that was too ambitious! Still smacking value for €1.49.

Yeah, the ones I bought are BC golf-balls. There also have/had SES candles and possibly BC candles too.

Overnight you should have left it, turning the bags periodically, giving it a little shake. Sparkiling they'll be.

Be careful with the liquids, I know you get warnings about skin contact on all this sort of stuff but this is strong stuff. You don't realise a bit got on your arm til it has you burned.

Going to try this tonight...oven's in bits. Is it ok to put the waste fluid down a normal drain?

wandererz · 21-04-2015 1:11am

Oven Pride is fantastic stuff.
Surprised that it's so cheap at all. This stuff cleans like no other.

Have pyrolytic ovens now, so haven't had need to use this stuff recently. But perhaps i should stock up as well for the grills/trays for later.

not sure. I put it down the outside drain.

TequilaMockingBird · 21-04-2015 8:13am

I splashed a bit on my worktop about a year ago and the mark is still there, be careful with it. On the windowsill too and it stripped the gloss paint off in seconds.

Would this work for cast iron cooking plates from a barbeque I wonder?

You shouldn't put that stuff down your outside storm drain... think it may even be illegal... has to go down the sink drain so that it gets treated.

Close to all houses storm and foul drains go to the same single sewer still - although I'd suggest not assuming until you check!

that's certainly the case for my drains as I had to get one of the storm drains unblocked recently and was able to see how they all ultimately went to the same sewer. Not sure about the on-street storm drains though.

Dealz have 15 pack of diet and cherry coke 2 packs for €9

tharmor · 12-05-2015 12:41pm

Its 15 pack and not 18 ! Still 30p a can is good...

rubadub · 12-05-2015 12:43pm

I saw cans of vanilla coke in dun laoghaire, not sure of the price.

1 of the (many) €2 shops has closed in dun laoghaire

tharmor · 12-05-2015 8:47pm

They had those suited security folks guarding penny value stuff...no wonder they had to close down !! And then thr is another euro shop with just 1 person taking care of entire shop....

Zonda999 · 12-05-2015 11:23pm

I don't think they've been mentioned but I think the Dealz earphones are far better than expected. Iuse them at work for a bit some light listening and they are far from the worst earphones I have come across with regards to sound quality. They also fit comfortably in the ears which is something not even the brands get right with earphones sometimes. The first set I had lasted over a year of relatively heavy use too, currently on my second pair:cool:

American baking measures. 1 cup, half cup etc.. Invaluable if you're baking from a recipe posted on YouTube (more than likely American) or text from a US website.

You can get vanilla coke for 49c a can in Mr Price stores. Dunno if there's any around Dun Laoghaire though!

I bought and scoffed a pack of them today. Was plenty left in the shop. Only problem is that the shop is in Letterkenny

Some Dealz have a better selection of stock. I find one or two Dealz around Dublin, for instance, have no baking supplies.

Connorzee · 15-05-2015 3:15pm

Yeah in fairness this one is relatively small compared to the other ones in cork city and county. They did however have a Jane Asher baking section just not the cup measurements i was looking for. They are a good idea though so i wouldnt be surprised if they were sold out. I got some other things while i was in there so i left happy enough. The search continues.

rubadub · 15-05-2015 3:19pm

I have asked for stuff and they went and checked out back, they never had it though. I have seen them checking for other people too, which would suggest there might be stuff out back not on shelves as they are tight for room.

This goes for tesco too, I got gardening stuff a week after it was all gone off the shelves, they said there was plenty left.

Anyone try this rucksack or bag?
Will they last long, one time use or worth buying?

Not used either but I imagine for the money they would not be all that well stitched together for carrying heavy loads, probably fine for light stuff.

Only tried the rucksack. It's like a strongish plastic bag. In fact you'd be better off buing one of the Dealz shopping bags for 50c

Was in Dealz Galway there they have 3 Cans of Vanilla Coke for €1.49

ActingDanClark · 25-05-2015 11:31pm

Bought a masonry/ woodstain brush fully expecting to bin it after doing the fence. Not only did it do the fence, it was then used staining the shed. Next job was painting the back of the house- its good as new, no bristle loss, and it grips comfortably. Recognition where it's due- it's a bargain!

Bought 2 of the rucksacks for 2 of my sons. They used them to carry their lunch on a scouts hike but they both fell apart. I'm a big fan of Dealz but some things you do need to spend a bit more on otherwise it's false economy!! Got them grand fold up back packs in Tesco for about €6/7 which are really strong and compact

Thargor · 26-05-2015 9:59am

Aldi and Lidl are the places to watch for backpacks.

Or Amazon. Got a few of these for the kids three or four years ago and they've held up really well.

My mum had to buy a HDMI cable for her new TV and was about to buy one for 20 quid or so in Tesco. Told her to try Dealz next door and wahey, she nabbed one for €1.49, the dream!

The whole super duper expensive HDMI cables notion is a myth,they either work or they don't.No point spending stupid money on HDMI cables,the cheap ones do the job just as well.
