Toss Bryan's can be very expensive for lots of things in my experience!

It's profiteering in all fairness. Stacks had lots of it, only bought 2 but Toss Bryan's should be ashamed when people are going shop to shop looking for this..

Single face masks €3.50 in a chemist in cork! What a joke and they are only with about 5c

It’s simple people, when this has blown over just don’t shop in the shops that price gouged... it is a very short term view, put up prices for a quick buck but youse have the power to vote with your feet and long term, if shops try do the quick buck, it will be minuscule compared to the loss of long term custom, but that is if you actually make that stand....
If I was a pharmacy I would be thinking the opposite and reducing the price but have a limit of 2 per customer, and in this way you would actually be helping your business long term by creating goodwill and also building up customer loyalty. Not to mention easing people’s stresses who may not have the income to pay the inflated prices like pensioners who are most vulnerable or perhaps even do a free bottle for any pensioner who shows a bus pass....

Apart from there electrical stuff. I find them expensive.
Christmas decorations, homewares,etc. are often double the price.

That's so true. I will not be returning to one place anyway they boarded up the door with boxes and you have to order from the door they wear masks and gloves Bit dramatic. Didn't put the prices up but told me stocks will run out so buy now

Death Atlas is a fantastic song on this, was playing it today to set the mood for the inevitable collapse we're experiencing, love the vocals at the end.

The chemist told me that people were grabbing handfuls.

Well then they should have restricted it to a small number per customer.

On Friday, the French government implemented a limitation on how much the now much-coveted product can be sold for. 

Applicable until the end of May, a 50ml bottle is capped at €2, 100ml at €3 and 300ml at €5 and a litre at €15. There have now been calls for Ireland to follow suit but will they..

And yet where I live, we still get 2x100ML per workday for a group of 15 people and if not used they are thrown out.

So now I have a collection of 8 bottles and counting.

Was asking in my local pharmacy and they said there was 1 Irish company that said they could supply them with hand sanitizer but the company was charging €6 ex vat. Understandably they said no. They didn’t want to look like the were profiteering. It’s a pity more pharmacy’s wouldn’t follow suit. They had masks too but even those they complained and apologised for the price. The pharmacist said that they used to be 50c a mask but they had to sell them at €2 each now as they were charged so much for them. They had to source them from NI. Hopefully things calm down soon.
