    Does that include Baileys? I've got some 10 off €50 vouchers to use and there's a limit to how many 12 packs of Pedigree dogfood I want to stockpile.

    I got a few bottles last year 4 of wine and got the 6 bottle discount, and €5 or €10 voucher discount too. Revenue used to classify Baileys as "fortified wine" or something years ago when you could get duty free going to UK/France. I guess they didn't have a handy pigeonhole to put it into at the time!

    I've just picked up a batch in store at 25% off. I was told it will be on for a few weeks.

    Lots of people would be unaware what is in it. Some of the baileys knockoffs are made with wine and they might have seen that on those bottles.

    In previous years you could also get vermouth, sherry, port and even half or quarter bottles of wine count count as part of your 6.
    The small bottles were especially handy if you were on foot with limited carrying capacity :)

    The offer hasn't activated online - or maybe it is instore only - so I can't check the small print on it this time.

    well considering its made from whiskey & cream i think they put it in the wrong pigeonhole :)

    Just to clarify this, I worked with Baileys back in the eighties and it was never classified as a fortified wine, and was always classified as a spirit.

    As a new product back then, there was an issue as to what category of spirits it belonged to and, if memory serves correctly, it was classified as a Home Made Compounded Spirit.

    Cheapest I've seen the kenco for a good while, I bought loads as I use the blue and my wife loves the red.
    The large jars of Lor are included too and they are still doing 5 for €5 on the C & C minerals (pepsi, club,7up) and random chocolate

    Lads just be careful on the 5 for €5. My local Tesco (rathfarnham) have the big shelf full of stuff advertised at the price.... except there's always a few different things there that aren't included.
    I've sent Tesco an email telling them they need to put exactly what is in the offer on the shelf and I got a lovely reply...."please return to your store with your receipt for a refund". I'd have expected something like "the store manager has been informed or we'll do our best to make sure this doesn't happen again", but unfortunately not.

    I guess Baileys comes under "Intermediate products" per the Revenue guidance today for duty free allowances for travellers arriving from outside the EU:

    ___________________________
    Spirits (for example, whiskey, vodka and gin) - 1 litre

    Intermediate products that contain 22% alcohol or less (for example, sherry, port or sparkling wine) - 2 litres
    ___________________________

    So you can bring 1 bottle of spirits, or 2 bottles of fortified wine eg sherry - or 2 bottles of Baileys.

    Maybe the Customs officer found it easier to say "fortified wine" than explain the alcohol percentage.

    Terenure is the same, they have the malteasers teasers bars @ 5 for €5 and right beside them is the sharing bag for nearly €4 each. Sneaky swines

    We can't read the t&c's for you.
    If it does not say 'groceries only', or exclude electronics, then go for it.
