Need to pick up a flask and hoping to do so in town tomorrow. Anybody any idea where i should start looking? Haven't a clue other than maybe Carrolls or something.

I got a free one with a bottle of Jameson a few weeks ago, in a kinda gift box thing. I'm think they are still doing them, have a look.

Edit: actually maybe it isn't free. probably more expensive than just the bottle, I can't remember.

Marks&Spencer are selling them on second floor in their Grafton Street premsies. They were only €13 or so.

I'd suggest the cigar shops in and around grafton street. The decent cigar emporium is up the stephen's green end of grafton st. and by all accounts are very helpful. Having said this, I'm not sure they'll have what you want. there is also that shop in college green that sells cigars and swiss-army knives etc. these should have hip-flasks, but friends have told me the staff were less helpful than the other place. Other than that I'd imagine a jewellers might be able to help. These could be a bit pricey though.

Shops that specialise in tobacco and associated products often have hip flasks too - often in sets with cigarette cases, but also for sale on their own.

I'd have a look in Peterson or Fox.

Thanks i'll have a look in Marks & Spencers and around Grafton Street tomorrow. Not looking for anything fancy. A cheap enough one will be grand.

you might be lucky enough to pick one up free in one of the christmas packs of whiskey on sale in the supermarkets

There's lovely hip flasks available in urban outfitters in temple bar. They have cute girlie ones with flowery patterns, and manly leather or steel finishes. great gift.

Alkers

Argos. You will be able to reserve on-line also

Ok I know its too late now.

But if I was going for another hip flask, I've two really nice examples, I'd go back to The Irish Celtic Craft Shop on Lord Edward St.

Also too late, but for future reference, they're in all the 2Euro Shops around town!
