    Does anyone know if Tesco will take them?

    Definitely


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,204 ✭✭✭✭odyssey06


    Anyone seen these in Dublin papers?

    Doubtful Tesco would take them as it's usually only Dunnes, Supervalu, ALDI and LIDL i.e. their national competitors. Iceland and M&S would be at store discretion maybe if there's one next door or something.

    The manager wouldn't take mine 2 weeks ago. This was in Dundrum.

    Tesco used to officially take them ages ago. They officially do not now.

    Anyone got recommendations for whats good in Iceland. I made kebabs with their kebab meat last night and it was awful, way too fatty and ruined a good meal. I like their chocolate eclairs though, bargain at 1.49 for 6 of them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,204 ✭✭✭✭odyssey06


    In Iceland the frozen seafood e.g. prawns and seafood mix is good.
    You can pickup some uncommon things like venison or waygu burgers.
    If you use ready meals the gourmet ready meals are nice but pricey.

    And if you are going camping, real SPAM!

    The lamb chops with mint from the cold shelf are good. They also have good sauces and condiments.

    Beam me up Scotty.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 802 ✭✭✭KingJamsie


    Iceland have their own brand Goujons, purple freezer bag. Deadly portions

    Toad in hole(sausage/ Yorkshire pudding combo) is tasty too

    Usually a good deal on water / kitchen roll / washing up liquids


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,573 ✭✭✭savemejebus


    Some surprisingly nice stuff at Iceland. Off the top of my head
    Hash Brown Fries
    Stone Baked Pizzas
    Their expensive Haddock and Cod (6.20 for 2 pieces)
    Mini vienetta ice creams
    Garlic and Herb sausages
    The 'majestic' ice creams (knock off magnums) are nicer than the real thing


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,333 ✭✭✭Dr Bolouswki


    The purple iceland goujons are nice indeed.
    2x crates of Fanta for €15 (48 cans) has been pretty regular recently.
    I LOVE their Indian dishes - I think it is own brand Madras, Balti, Jalfrezi - all at €2 each (no rice).

    Their "no bull" burgers are amazing, best veggie burger available in Ireland.

    I'd give it a go, its only some code, not like its explicitly saying only for use in galway. Just ask before you start shopping if you do not plan on spending 40 without it.

    great idea, should be brought in in all major supermarkets

    Dunnes doing extensive voucher campaign. August is very quiet month.

    Christmas is on the minds of all retailers.

    This is a pure marketing gimmick to get footfall in the quietest month of the year.

    Iceland doing vouchers in store..handed one when we walked in. 4 vouchers starting Dec 1st till 31st Dec. Ranging from spend €60 get €15 off to spend €40 get €10 off. It's not a shop I really buy anything in but we were just having a browse but ended up getting loads of party food, frozen lobsters, crisps and a few non freezer bits and pieces. €60.10 spend for €45 and all things I would have been buying anyway at some point before Christmas. Very pleased.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,204 ✭✭✭✭odyssey06


    Thanks for the tip - sounds like a good time to stock up. Were they whole lobsters or lobster tails?

    I signed up to emails from them and they send these now and again. The current one is spend 20 get 5 off and you can show on your phone, no need to print it.

    They were the whole lobsters. Normally Aldi and Lidl do them but I haven't seen them this year. That was actually the only reason I went into Iceland. But when we were handed the voucher, we decided to make use of it.

    It was in Clonmel. I'm assuming it would be nationwide though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,020 ✭✭✭123654789


    It was from filling in a Bonuscard application I picked up in store though I never put anything on the card
    http://www.iceland.ie/bonuscard/
    If you prepay €30 onto the card you get €1 free and can use it to pay along with your fiver off €20 voucher

    You also get a FREE 5kg Turkey if you spend €100 in one transaction
    according to the leaflet.
    No idea how you spend €100 in one transaction as you would need one
    very large freezer!

    Special offers:
    20 Eggs for €2
    1kg Granulated Sugar 80c
    24 pack of spring water €3
    65 wash Surf (Tropical Lily) €8
    24 pack of toilet rolls €5

    I suppose you could buy 20 packs of the toilet paper for €100 to get the free turkey.Would be enough to keep you going for 2019 ;-)

    Unless something went badly wrong with the turkey :D


  • Registered Users, Subscribers, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,588 ✭✭✭✭antodeco


    Thanks OP. Back from Iceland. Spent €120, and got €15 off and a free turkey!

    They have vouchers along by the tills so I just walked up and took one of the leaflets. They are date specific, so different amounts depending what week in December you go.


  • Registered Users Posts: 335 ✭✭MB05


    Iceland isn't all about frozen food, it's what they are known for but I have found they can be very reasonable for store cupboard items, and they are great for office birthday parties etc as the small packs of cakes and treats are cheaper than the usual shops. Good selection too. I wouldn't usually spend anything near the amounts you have to in order to get the money off but at this time of year it's easier as they do great offers on the 24 pack of cans (Pepsi Max, 7UP Free, Fanta Zero and occasionally Dr Pepper Zero). The regular price of these are 2 slabs for €15 but I have seen them do them for €13 for 2 on specials.

    They also have good offers from time to time on the boxes of sweets, crisps, biscuits etc. They also have items that wouldn't normally be sold on the Irish market (e.g. they have a Fry's Selection Box for €3 which contains 2 Turkish Delight, 2 Peppermint Creams and 2 Chocolate Creams). I got a 300g box of After Eights in my local one on Saturday for €2 (might have been a daily special). It's worth a look if you are near one and need a few stocking fillers or generic household gifts.

    Pity they dont sell alcohol in any of their Irish stores... would be handy for hitting a voucher limit. Their UK stores do.
