I have a few but I wouldn't trust them with a bottle of Green Spot

Dunnes have 20% off six bottles of wine and a case of Carlsberg 300ml bottles for €15.

The mix and match 24 cans + bottle of spirits for €50 is still running.

I wonder is this truly the discount they have on the site. I paid £32 for the same bottle in early December last year from Amazon.

My guess is you take your chances after if you are unlucky to be caught they destroy the contents.

They'll contact you by post and give you the option of paying the duty due on it, you pay that and they post it to you.

Any idea how much? Roughly? Or does it depend on the price etc.. it was the green spot for £30.

Cheers for reply

They've got a set formula they use involving strength and volume, I say you'd find it online.

No doubt there will be an admin fee too! Think duty is around 42 euro per litre which would work out around 30eur per 700ml

Dunno how its that high though when RRP of spirits can be well below that. But thats whats on revenues website.

It is €42.57 per litre of alcohol so for a 40% 700 ml bottle duty is €11.92. Don’t know about admin fee.

Admin fee is not charged by Revenue. When applied, it is by carrier for clearing goods through customs.

Make a nice Christmas box.

That Jack Daniels down to €20 from €34 is great value too.
