    There's no limit and I'd say the more you buy in a single shop they'll drop the price

    Black cats available in both places!

    Are you sure they both sell black cats and the firework factory is that an old petrol station or am i getting confused plz reply


  • Registered Users Posts: 17 toolbox66


    Anyone know what the penalty is if you get caught, I know it's supposed to be max 10k fine or imprissonment but realistically what would happen?

    Hi - yep both places defo sell black cats.

    I think I know the petrol station you're talking about but it's not it. It's just a few yards beyond that - can't miss it!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 399 ✭✭elaverty


    Where exactly is the market in Jonesborough,,is it far from Newry Town,,,thanks...If your comeing from Dublin say,,


  • Registered Users Posts: 40 ashishere


    I've just been to the market. There is really good deals on. Don't worry about blackcats being in short supply cus they have more than enough. I got 30 euro off what I was buying and I didn't even ask for a deal!
    The prices:
    Blackcats:€10 per sleeve
    Thunder rockets: 2 packs for €5
    Titan rockets:5 for €5
    Roman candles:5 for €5
    Colour bombs:3 packs of 5 for €5
    Selection boxes start from €15
    TNT ones start from €20
    *all of these prices are lowered if u buy more than one pack so the more u buy the less the cost of the fireworks are.
    I bought from the firework shop that has no name(the first one on the right as u enter the market.it has 50% off written on the window)
    Hope this helps :)

    Jonesborough normally starts selling around the 3rd week in september so id be nearly positive they're selling them at this stage and every year ive went up prices were rock bottom, and mildly negotiable at that.

    Thanks
