    It's smaller in size and in price. The new mini McFlurry will set you back 59p compared to the regular McFlurry's 99p (average price), The Mirror reports.

    59p in UK? How bout €1.80 in Ireland. All gone in 3 bites.

    the big British retailers operating in Ireland use the name "treasure island" when talking about the irish market. we as a nation are just more willing to be ripped off than other nations.

    Whatever you buy in McDonald's, you're getting ripped off. It's nothing but oil, water and sawdust.

    Sure we'll have the last laugh when, after Brexit, the cost of dairy will increase to a point where they won't be able to afford it.

    Why is there even such an option of mini. If you are going to get a McFlurry, go all in.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,366 ✭✭✭✭Kylo Ren


    The chocolate fudge sundae is what you should be getting there.

    I'm not having that for one second.

    I purchased a large Belgian chocolate honeycomb iced frappe half an hour ago and was very happy with what I got. 10/10.

    Now go and try one.

    there are odd people in the world who think there is such a thing as too much ice cream.

    I dipped a crunchie in a cold cup of coffee.

    Or I'd probably get multiple hidings because my blood type is HB from all the ice cream I consume.

    For all you talking about the sundaes they are gone, don't do them anymore. Also, it was all about the caramel one, without question

    McDonald's is the biggest buyer of Bord Bia Quality Assured beef in Ireland. 100% beef content.

    Its bacon comes from Dew Valley in Thurles.

    Supermacs and Burger King have in the past bought their meat from the likes of Rangeland up until the horse meat scandal.

    I had my first McDonald's sundae in years in London a few weeks ago. Delicious.
    Came back home and went in to my local for another one. Discontinued! What a sh*t marketing decision to make.
