Anyone know of anywhere in Dublin NOT A PET SHOP to buy an adhesive strip thermometer

I just ordered a bunch of brewing stuff for a new project, and as it'll be the first time using a demijohn instead of a bucket, I meant to order a new thermometer to stick to it, but left it out of the order accidentally.

As they cost in the region of €2-3 on their own, and postage from either HBW or THC is around €5, I'd really like to see if I can get one anywhere in Dublin and avoid paying shipping for such a small item. There seem to be a few pet shops which have them, but they're 18-32 degrees which wouldn't be any use as this kit requires an 18 degree temperature, so would need to go down to at least 16 in order to be of value here.

Anyone know if there's anywhere that might sell them? I'm sure they have other applications apart from brewing. Have looked around online but no luck so far.

One of the homebrew suppliers might stick one in an envelope for you if you ask them nicely.

Any pet shop. They are used for fish tanks. Sorry didn't read post properly

Pet shops have them too, they're stuck onto aquariums for temp control

This one goes inside if it's any good to you, it does 0-50. If any pet shop would have something to suit that one would.

Thanks everyone for your help! As it happens, one of the kits I ordered from HBW was out of stock so my order was delayed and I was able to get the thermometer added on without having to pay for separate shipping :cool:
