IS there a family planning clinic near to you?
Failing that try the A&E of your nearest hospital and they can send you a bill.

What about the guy? Could he lend it to you? Would be much cheaper in the long term for him.

Could you go to a local family planning clinic?
Is there doctor out of hours service in your local area that you can call?
Could you over draft your bank account,it would be worth doing if you could?
Could you ask a friend or family member that you trust for the money because remember if you are pregnant there going to find out anyway so it would be worth asking one person you trust. Sorry if that sounds rude.

A baby would cost a lot more than €35 to feed and clothe. Get the money from a friend or relative and make an appointment for today. You have up to 72 hours to take it but the sooner you take it the better. Are you in a big town/city? Some pharmacists will sell it without a prescription and it is a little cheaper but your best bet is to go to a dispensing GP. Another option is a Well Woman clinic. Once you take it and have a little bit more money it is probably an idea to also go for a sexual health screening.

Going to a doctor is going to cost much more than €35. Going to an A&E will cost €100 in the levy

Contact your nearest family planning clinic, explain your situation. If you are genuinely without funds they will work something out with you.

Failing that ask someone if you can borrow the money. It will cost a lot less than an unwanted pregnancy in the long run. You don't have to tell them what it's for.

You might also want to consider having an STI screen also as an unwanted pregnancy might be only one of the outcomes of unprotected sex.

And I hope you don't need me to tell you this, but in future take precautions and take care of yourself. Being sensible isn't always fun, but it's needed. Your safety and well being should always be paramount, so if you engage in one night stands again please remember to ensure your safety and health are not put at risk.

You don't need to go to the doctor or family planning you can buy it over the counter in any pharmacy. Prices differ from 12euro to 25euro

Ya any Boots or major pharmacy will sell it.

Beg, steal or borrow the money OP. After €35 is a lot cheaper than 18 years of child-rearing!

Ring local pharmacies. The price range is €12 - €35. Independents are cheaper than boots. Boots is the dearest I think

Don't waste anymore time.

Whether or not you can scrape it together is irrelevant tbh. Borrow it from a friend, relative, the guy in question, anyone. 15 euro is a lot less than the cost of a child.
