    To get free super saver delivery to Ireland from Amazon you have to select it at checkout - Ie. it is not automatic. All orders for more than £25 qualify for free delivery to Ireland (as long as the goods are sold by Amazon)
    If you choose the Super Saver Delivery - it takes maybe 1 or sometimes 2 days longer than the standard delivery - but in my experience it always arrives within 5 days if items are in stock.


    Item Per Item GBP Per Delivery GBP
    Super Saver (Available on All Orders over £25 *) FREE *


    CD/vinyl/DVD/ £0.49 1.79
    Books £0.99 £4.49
    Video /Pc & Video Games £0.99 £4.99
    Everything Else £4.99 plus £0.59 per Kg

    The odd time I have got the free delivery option under £25 too, might have been an item with low postage costs, just go to checkout and do not finalise the payment. Also when irish VAT is applied it might be over £25 at checkout.

    Your combined £25 basket can be from any department, e.g. it could be peanut butter & jeans. You can find some cheap items on this link if you only need to go a few £ more to be above £25

    ............and of course, to avail of free SuperSaver delivery you have to buy from Amazon themselves, not the various retailers that sell through Amazon.Often, the cost is more or less equal if you are not buying much.
