I was in the Lidl in Doughiska today and the fruit and veg were not half price, was it only the one in town?

Ya, only the one beside Argos had the extra bargains.Had a 22in widescreen LCD monitor for 75e and a 320GB DVD recorder for 100e. Both super bargains.

Interesting offer from City Direct - details here.

(NB link is to my site 'cos I can't see details of the offer on their site. They emailed me directly about it, the email looks genuine and is consistent with others that I've received from them. No, I don't know what they'll do with the email addresses that they collect, but I'm sure there are laws about what they're allowed to do.)

I saw this advertised last week or the week before and I'd say they've reached their 50 kids quota by now unless mummy can't bear not to thunder her way in her shiny tractor to the educational facility with her precious spawn encased in the back.

They emailed me about in on Thurs ... I just didn't get to doing anything about it 'til Sunday :-( So they may not have been immediately snapped up.

Lidl have a 2m HDMI cable with gold-plated connection for 6.99 from today Thurs Sept2nd. 3year guarantee. They'll probably sell out quick enough even though can be got cheaper on sendit.com. Still not a bad price.

Today, Sunday 19th Sept, ALDI have a 3 way HDMI Switch Box with InfraRed remote control and sensor for sale at 11.99e each. Not a bad price and very useful for anyone who has a HD TV with only 1 HDMI input and more than 1 HD device e.g. Bluray,Xbox etc. to connect up. The store I was in hadn't got many of these in stock.

Might be of interest to somebody: 'Grate, Gas and Electrical' (beside Tesco) are closing down and selling off all their stock (fireguards, camping stuff, plumbing etc.) Sign says 'No reasonable offer refused' so if yer into any of that stuff and a good haggler you might find something. Seemed to be a good lot of stock in there earlier.

Very over-priced shop in the first place, so eventhough you may think you're getting a 'bargain' off their RRP you could prob get it for the same price elsewhere

Hope they are free range. If not, you might as well be buying blood diamonds.

Head The Wall

Chickens only have to have "access" to free space to be classes as free range. There can be 10,000 chickens in a chicken house and if there is a 2 square foot opening to an outdoor area all 10,000 chickens are classed as free range even if they never get of their arses. Beware of the labeling and the standards behind it

Also posted in BA but might be of interest to someone here - 2-in-1 Duracell Portable USB Charger for €3.95 in Tesco. should be more than €60.
portable charger for usb electronics. might be handy for someone going abroad and not wanting to get an adaptor just for an mp3 player.

still a couple left in Tesco Headford Road when i was there yesterday. picked up 2 of them, just couldn't resist the bargain

EDIT: you have to ask at the counter for them. they're displayed to the left behind the counter beside the books.

I wonder where the cheapest retailer for FM11 is? Weather isn't the best for running around comparing prices!

snubbleste

What's an FM11?

btw guys, much excitement..
On Monday next, Tesco will be opened in Oranmore with 110 workers and a Tesco Express in Newcastle in the city will create 15 jobs.
If anyone hears they have opening offers, share the info
