Hi All,

I’m looking for energy saving light bulbs (eg 4 or 5 in total). If anyone knows a good value for money place to stock up, I’m all ears.

Any pointers, no matter how small, will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for all responses.

5 Philips CFL bayonet head 6w/11w bulbs for €5 (yes, 5 bulbs for €5!) in any Woodies, have been doing them for a few months

Kellihers Electrical Wholesale are very cheap with bulbs,spots,etc compared with Woodies and those thieves B&Q.

Yea woodies always seem to have them phillips ones cheap. I got a load the last time I was in for 50c each. They had a load of pallets of them out.

In case you happen to live near the border.... Got a load for 10p each in Asda on friday, 9W and 11W GE energy saving light bulbs. Bought 20, figured they should keep me going for a while!

And they still are. I just bought 5 for €5. Thanks for the tip.

Tesco have these for €1 now, much like the old Woodies deal if it interests anybody

Recently I lost one of my prescription lenses so I went back to Specsavers, where I've been a customer for the last 10 years.

They offered to put two such prescription lenses (they already have my prescription on file) into the existing frames for €230! Wow!

I went on line, and ended up with Glassesdirect.co.uk, which did the job, complete with lenses scratch protection, for about €100.

Rip Off Ireland is alive and well.

Perhaps you should get those new lenses checked out?
