Where's best (and the cheapest) to pick up some pairs of chinos and slacks for work?

Not interested in brand names, just as long as they look half decent and respectable, so none of this "skinny" or "super slim" stuff. Thanks.

Try TK Maxx

I'm in Galway tomorrow and want to treat my girlfriend to a manicure in the city centre (whilst I work!) around 11am.

Prospect Hill plus 15% off using SUMMER15 plus potential cashback of 5%

Looking for somewhere I might be able to buy a desk lamp (the flexi ones)? I checked Kelly's online store and they are pretty expensive. Was hoping not to have to spend more than €15 - €20 if possible!

A jacket is a windsheeter.
Argos probably have the screen thing.

It can mean both. I was genuinely wondering.

thesandeman

They seem to be cross-defining (if that's a word) themselves alright, although going by the posters aka it's probably the sheet type thing she wants.

Fey!

If it's the jacket, Portwest. For the screen, try Great Outdoors.

thesandeman

Think I've seen ALDI and LIDL advertising the screen thing at various times too depending on the weeks theme.

If you are looking for shoes for running then amphibian king in oranmore are great for gait analysis and help with choosing runners. Another option is to see a Physio - the baily point Physio team are reliable, or Trish in Drum.

They don't unfortunately. They have a message on their website saying that they have a mobile disposal unit that comes from time to time and to watch out for announcements but in the few years I have been looking I never saw any announcements. I asked one of the guys working at the council recycling centre a few weeks ago and he said that truck hasn't come in years. He suggested the Barna Recycling Centre in Tuam and someone else mentioned the one in Ballinasloe. From what I can find there isn't anywhere closer than that.

Looking for somewhere to get a pre-NCT under-body car wash? Ideally somewhere open after 6pm.

I did this guy's course recently and thought it was good

He is in Oughterard though so if you're in town and don't drive it could be tough getting there. I think they might be thin on the ground because I came from Athenry thinking I'd have traveled longest, in fact I traveled shortest.

Any recommendations for flowers in the city? I usually get a bunch of whatever looks nice in the market on Saturdays but I need some tonight! Don't want anything too fussy though.

Dunnes or aldi. Dunnes is a little over priced if not reduced though... nice but nothing fussy
