    What a crock of sh!t. If you were any way consumer savvy, the prices for equivalent are the same, and cheaper elsewhere. Had a look at the electricals (TV and washing machines), and prices are cheaper in DID, Power City and the likes. Sofas on display were dreadful and over priced compared to Frank McGowens, DFS, Diamond Living etc. Don't be fooled by the big 70% OFF signs everywhere

    Needless to say, I dropped my empty basket back at the door and left empty handed

    Couldn’t agree more :/

    Yea this thing seems to be overhyped tripe every time they run it. Arnotts are dearer for furniture, electrical and household stuff. Their discounts just brings them into line with others.
    I find Harry Corry decent value all the year round.

    If these were "genuine Warehouse Sale" you'd imagine it would be a very infrequent thing rather than yearly or more?

    I think a lot of folks end up buying just to justify the fact they've made an effort to get out there.

    I'd be fairly confident the vast majority of stock they're looking to offload can be had a better prices elsewhere.

    Always buy Dyson direct from Dyson. They give you fantastic guarantees. We recently got two older Dysons made 'as new' for free.

    Using parcel motel or address pal I got a brand new Dyson (factory refurbished) for much cheaper. Apparently they are unopened returns but Dyson calls then refurbs to not piss off retailers. My V7 had all the stickers on it. Completely unused.

    The v10 is 450eur. In other words its the exact same price as everywhere else. As was the V8. All marked as 'on sale'.

    The "sale" is a complete con! Apart from some furniture the value was rubbish. Youll find it cheaper online and at the same prices as DID or other similar stores.

    We called for an engineer, we had a machine that was just within its 5 year guarantee. Discovered the problem was a screw had fallen out. He fixed that, tightened up all the seals, checked everything on it and threw an eye over a much older machine we had too. No charge. He may not have been supposed to look at the older one for us, but he did.

    The site says there is a 90 euro charge for machines out of warranty, though even that would be good value. It is free for within warranty machines.

    The V8 is the only product they have on sale. The V10 they clearly tell you is the same price however you get an extra nozel.

    Like Black Friday on Amazon. Couple of good deals, lots of stuff available for same price in store, some stuff with barely any reduction. But if you hype it up enough, people go mad.

    This is on again Thursday 5th to Sunday 8th Sept at The National Show Centre - Stockhole Lane - Cloghran - Swords. Might take a spin over as I need bedding, from previous comments other products dont seem to be discounted that much, certainly not the 50% advertised.

    Cannot think of anything more torturous to do during a pandemic

    Large crowds all going mad for a “bargain”? No thanks

    Appears from the email it’s actually in their Henry st store not in Swords. There’s nothing you couldn’t get any other time in a normal sale

    Incorrect. :D
    It says "rrp" €350

    Sort of like the false sales of dfs and the likes of Currys, they use an inflated "rrp" or in the case of dfs an "after event price" which really is laughable


    I saw some items that have a rrp stated of €22 and I know that the standard price was €17.95 and regular promotional price in other stores €12.95. It's old stock and warehouse sale price is €12.

    So I don't think any of the "rrp" prices should be believed
