Captain Morgans/Absolut - €20 a litre

Atlantic Dawn

Just when my Christmas drinks stock has run low Dunnes are doing litre bottles of Captain Morgan Spiced Gold and Absolut Vodka for €20 a litre, it was on an advert in the paper so I am assuming it's nationwide .

No - I got that tip from another poster here - and I thought "uggh not a chance in hell" - but then I tried it (I had coke for back up just in case and a bucket) - but it was lovely - as the other poster said just like a super split ice pop....:D

Dunnes Rathmines sold out yesterday of Absolut, I didn't ask if they would have anymore.

Anyone know if any Dunnes in CC or Blanchardstown (there is one in Blanch right?) have any litres of Absolut left?

It literally tastes like water, there is no taste of it at all. IMHO fanta is by far the best mixer.

Yep it tastes (surprisingly) really, really good with ginger ale.

It said the normal price was 24.99 in Dunnes, not a huge saving.

Wouldn't say €24.99 is the usual 1L price - that's probably the 700ML price you're looking at?

FreudianSlippers

Yeah, a litre is usually around 28-29quid

Excellent, just emptied my christmas bottle last week. Shall be picking up a bottle of the Captin's finest tonight.

No it was the 1 litre bottle. The tag on the shelf said 24.99 for 1L behind the big €20 price. I had to look at a couple of times to make sure. I was surprised as well. Capt Morgan I'm on about.

Tesco's had the 1 litre bottle of it marked down from 34.99 down to 24.99 a few days ago so thats why I jumped at the chance. It'll be interesting to see if Dunnes normally sell it 10 euro cheaper

Which one? Going into the one in Ilac today to get one, so hope there are some left.

Tesco have half a bottle of the Captain (350ml) for €9

FreudianSlippers

Dunnes in Ilac is out of Absolut, but they have Captain Morgans still and I think Bacardi now on special.

Dunnes now has 750ml Russian Standard vodka for €15.
