A random waffle thread?

Limerick_Lass

How about a random thread to allow people waffle on and talk about general chit chat/ unworthy thread starter topics?
Its just an idea, could help keep the other threads to their relevant topic!
What ye think guys?

How about that rain today

Thanks lads. I would prefer shop local. I did a fair bit of looking around town today. IMO Harvey Norman had the best selection and I found their staff very knowledgable and helpful. They really explained the quality and value in spending that little bit extra regarding picture quality etc..

I wasn't very impressed with Soundstore's selection tbh. I still have a few more shops to try but I'm wondering would waiting until the January sales be worth it?

F S V all the way I have bought a large selection of items from the lads since the opened and found their service/prices excellent.

The rest of the lights in the city look great this year I think.

Yeah the automated displays they used to have were very cool, and quite the crowd puller.

Stay away from Soundstore, their after sales support and service is poor

The quality of the after sales service is very important because you need that peace of mind if anything goes wrong!Currys have a 5 year cover plan that you can purchase for a product bought there.They will replace an item for you free of charge under that policy even if the damage caused to it was your own fault.

I'm looking to buy a tv in Limerick. What shops might you recommend for selection and value?

tbh, I am going to going into take a look and ask a few questions on specific sets and then price then against online prices. If there isn't much difference in price (20-30ish) after delivery I'll probably buy local.

Try FSV on Upr William St, next door to Gleeson Sports Store, best TV sales shop in Limerick.

Urlan TV on Clare St not too bad either.

3rd choise would be Soundstore, I use here for a lot on my electrical stufff but FSV for TV and the likes.

Depends on what you are after really. If you are looking for a good selection and decent prices on lower to mid ranges TVs, then Soundstore would probably be your best bet followed by Currys and then Harvey Norman.

But if you want to pay a little more and buy a mid range set (possibly a slightly earlier model in some cases) from a local business, then Fitzgeralds in town is probably the best of the small local ones and their delivery set up is one that can often put the much bigger chains to shame. Also found Fitzgeralds very good to deal with with any after sales issues.

But of you are after something high end or a speciality set, then you are out of luck in Limerick unless the place up near Gleesons sports on William street has something in stock (cannot remember the name of it, FV Vision or something like that?)

Savins on O'Connell Street and Finucanes in Eastway Business Park are two local shops. Finucanes has a small selection. Also Jack Fitzgerald down by the river.

The Snipe

Soundstore afaik has always been pretty good, its out in Delta business park. Besides that ask about in harvey normans and whatnot really

Birds and train stations go hand in hand, every train station I've been in throughout Europe has had birds in it. They're big open spaces which are open at one end and sheltered.

I know they can be a nuisance but I really don't think there's a whole load that can be done about it.

Yeah like i said it probably is a small and trivial complaint in the grand scheme of things!

Something positive, the City rates are hopefully being reduced from, I think, over €70 to €59.90. It might entice some business into the City, and might keep a few in the city as well.

Some rta this evening, fubared traffic heading for cork, kerry, clare as South ring road was closed southbound between j29 and j30! There was some amount of traffic on the childers road

Mc Love

Will definitely be parking there so the next time!

Another tip if you spend 10 euro in Gleeson's Sports, they will validate your parking ticket for the Summer St car park!
