Couldn't find a thread for deals - might be an idea to keep deals of interest to the ART community in a single thread.

There seems to be a good deal on Groupon.ie this morning for supplements. €16 for a €40 voucher to buy anything on the discountsupplements.ie website. I was looking at the 2:1:1 recovery (1.68kg) which under this deal you can get for €19 + €5 delivery instead of €48 standard price. I haven't bought this stuff before as I'm just starting to train for my first marathon but is this a decent price??

The real question is: do you need supplements to run a marathon?

When I ran my first marathon, I had plastic tubs of everything, from pre-workout energy drinks to post-workout recovery drinks, etc., but after a while, you come to terms with the fact that you don't really need them and they are just unnecessary expense. I don't imagine there's anything on the site that would be a good substitute for a healthy meal after a tough/long workout. The only argument I can see for these supplements is if you don't have ready access to a healthy meal immediately after your workout (for example if you have to travel some distance after your race/workout), in which case some form of milkshake/sandwich/fruit should provide the necessary carb/protein benefits. You also really only need recovery type products after sessions or long runs (18+ miles).

But if you want to do a price comparison for recovery drinks, Wiggle has a good range, and is usually competitively priced.

20% off the price of 'lightweight racing shoes' from Wheelworx/Runworx at the moment.
Saucony Kinvara 3 are €88. Asics DS Racer - €84. Might be of interest to some. Not sure how long the offer lasts.

www.Wiggle.co.uk are having a sale. Managed to get a pair of Inov-8 Road-X 255s for €67.86 (I used the £5 voucher code you get for signing up to their newsletter to bring it down further). Delivery free! Can't believe how good a deal that is!

I've reduced my online spend in the preference of supporting the bricks and mortar guys around here, however I see from the posts above there are some boardies paying silly delivery charges from the UK - check this out.
I'm sure you've seen the ads on TV for Parcel Motel, I haven't used it yet, but a guy from work uses it to to avail of the UK delivery charges and lower VAT rate.

Parcel Motel is a whole new way to manage your online shopping deliveries. Each Parcel Motel contains 80 secure lockers of varying sizes. They are all located in convenient places such as petrol station forecourts with 24-hour access 7 days a week. To find out where your nearest one is click here.
No more waiting around or missed delivery notices telling you to pick up your parcel during the exact same hours that you’re at work. And no more worrying about memos from your boss on the subject of receiving personal deliveries at work!
Now you can have your parcels sent directly to your nearest Parcel Motel ready for collection, at a time that suits you.

Forerunner 310xt + HRM, goes on Amazon.co.uk Black Friday sale today at 3:59pm. Here's the current link. Not sure if they use a different URL for the sale/reduced pricing, so best to hit the amazon.co.uk main-page, find the listing and go from there. I would guess that the reduction will be 20%-30%. A 30% reduction would make it decent value for money. A 50% discount would be a steal.

A 20% reduction would make it: ~€209
A 30% reduction would make it: ~€182
A 40% reduction would make it: ~€156
A 50% reduction would make it: ~€130

That's coming up at £209 if you wanted to buy it at the moment, so the discounts will be even greater?

Yep. The discount should be on top of the current price (at 3:59pm). You may have to be fast though, so decide now, on what discount level you think would put it within your budget. Also VAT rates to Ireland are a little higher, so the actual basket price may go up by a few euro.

What are the main differences between the 305 & 410? Have a 410 lined up as xmas present. Should I stick with it?

I'm not being lazy, I would check myself but most sites are blocked here in work, including Garmin site.

Thanks
