    Not the Restaurant but the Pizza joint, damn. Fairly hard to eat €20 worth of Pizza :D

    There's plenty of great options other than pizza in Da Roberta's Pizzeria. Check out the menu:

    I hadn't noticed that it wasn't applicable to take away. I hope they're flexible about it.

    I don't eat pizza but it's one of my favourite places to eat...they have some great pasta dishes(the fusilli al pesto callibrese is just gorgeous) and the best antipasto misto starter.

    I need to get me a voucher:)

    There always seems to be a catch with living social deals. The recent deal for eco car wash superior valet can only be used in the branch in the Clayton hotel rather than Hynes yard on Saturday. There is always a catch with these deals. I don't think businesses do themselves any favours, if they apply additional conditions after you've bought the voucher they just don't get repeat custom which I assume is the reason they sign up to LIving Social to begin with. Okay, rant over..:mad:

    If you think you were mis-sold the product, complain to LivingSocial.

    I've only purchased a few deals, but no catches yet.

    Edit:apparently that deal was only for the Carlton Hotel location.

    Seriously? Bought one for the old man because I saw mobile numbers for both car washes when browsing the site and assumed it meant Hynes Yard too. Not happy if that's not the case.


  • Registered Users Posts: 81,223 ✭✭✭✭biko


    Link to the deal. If you've been wronged take it to Consumer Issues.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,099 ✭✭✭dinneenp


    always read the small print Full conditions are there I'd imagine.

    Home heating boiler service for 29 euro. It can really help you boiler to use oil more efficiently if you haven't had it done in a while. We paid 120 for one recently.

    Seagate hard drives are back in Easons. the following are USB 3 too
    1TB = €99
    portable 1TB =€129
    2tb = €139
    not sure what PC World & Maplin have them for but there has been a 5 month gap in Easons' supply caused by the weather in Thailand destroying factories last year.
    & Eason's have tended to be about the best price when they've been in stock.
