Used Pigsback voucher for Cushelle, and packed the 16 rolls for 5.39€. Not bad

Celebration tins? Give me a break, they'll be 6€ all through December. Might even get the odd one at 5€, like last year

6 pack of Pepsi for 2 Eur, not too shabby.
Hope its not the watered down stuff that they usually get pepsi to make for them when they have a special offer.

The Quality Street and Roses were going for €4.50 a few months ago - but, of course they're half price at the moment!!

Just a heads up for anyone that bought the OXFORD CAMPUS A5 NOTEBOOKSfor 30 cent.
Quite a few of those I bought had an offer on the front cover for a free Cineworld ticket with every 2 purchases.
It states UK only on the terms and conditions, but I put the codes in on the website, I received the promotional code for the Cineworld ticket by email. It states on the email that the code is valid in UK & Ireland

Only useful for those that are in Dublin( Cineworld only on Parnell street)
but I got 3 cinema tickets for €1.80!

Theres an old pack and a new pack of these, maybe someone who got them for €2.70 could put up the barcode as the two pack are probably mixed up on the shelf in other stores. I think they were sold out locally here.

CH3OH · 17-09-2013 08:11AM

Tesco 600ml deicer spray.

This was in the reduced section in Arklow( near birthday party stuff)

€1.86 for 600 ml is not a bad price

Hopefully won't need too much of it!

Tesco in Finglas, Travel Guess Who. Marked as 3.45 on shelf was 1.74 when scanned. Might do as christmas stocking fillers.

40 beers for €2?? :eek: now that really is a bargain!!

Looks like there's some sort of pricing snafu in relation to multibuy beer, in the UK anyway, see HUKD link http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/3-for-22-big-cases-beer-tesco-misprice-instore-only-1659295?utm_source=Newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_content=09192013&utm_campaign=Daily%2BHot
Not sure if it's also the case here though.

Just in Tesco naas and got angry birds star wars death star jenga game for 8.74 currently 38 euro in smyths. Also got angry birds star wars at-at game for 12.24 currently selling at 42 in smyths. Good few on the shelves!

need_some_help · 19-09-2013 10:28PM

2 x 20 pk of either heineken/miller/coors light for E30.
8 pk Bud light is E9, Both on tesco.ie.
Using the code RXXGGHT (20 off orders 60 or over) that means you can get either 80 bottles for E40 or 56 cans for E43

Time to call a halt double vision :P

wow I haven't thought about coupon, 80 bottles for 40e is better value than christmas prices on beer (tend to be cheaper)

liamnojo92 · 20-09-2013 12:19AM

ChokaBlok billionaire shortcake icecream was 1.74 for 500ml yesterday seemed like a good price.

irishproduce · 20-09-2013 09:25AM

Just on the point of beer prices etc, even at its best, when you think you are getting a fantastic bargain by combining deals with coupons etc, you are still only getting standard promotion prices that they pay in France (For example).
Was there recently and in one promotion, you could get 40 X 25cl bottles of Kronenbourg for €12

There was other promotions but this whole thing that alcohol is too cheap here is insulting - it's cheaper in other places.

Sorry for being off topic - back to the bargains :-)

Eponymous · 20-09-2013 09:38AM

Kenco Millicano refill pouches are €3 in Baggot St. Lwr. branch at the moment.

Yes there is , but they have a different tax system. And alot of the cheap plunk over there is from France or even local. I found beer prices to be higher than ours when I was there this year. And bar prices astronomical

This is ours for wine. Copied of another site. Its hard to turn a profit on it.
Just before the retailers margin, we have government duty and then VAT added. This is how it works:
• €2.46 flat-rate duty on every bottle, €4.92 on sparkling wine
• 21.5% VAT (this is on the whole cost, including duty)
• At €19.99, tax represents 30% of purchase price
• At €9.99, tax = 42%
• At €7.99, tax = 48%
• At €5.99, tax = 60% & less than €2 gets spent on the wine inc. packaging and shipping.
Therefore, more often than not, you’ll be getting a drastically better wine at €7.99 than you will at €5.99.

You will find a few gems even at the 5.99 price tag though- one to buy, is the Tesco own brand Finest Rose- easily the beat of Rose's from name brands such as Mateus- that are double the price. When they have the 20% offers- its even better value (though they have been rigorously applying quotas lately).

Those figures are quite old. VAT is 23% now and the duty rates have changed also. So the margins are actually even smaller than you quoted.

Got some of these with the foam pieces before and they ended up in the bin only worth the €1.15,the others might be ok.
