    Picked up a few of these Air Freshners in Halfords in Blanchardstown this morning. Reduced from €6.49 to 10 cent! :eek:
    There was only about 2 left when I was leaving and not sure if the other Halfords are running the same reduction but worth a look

    Just after buying all the stock in Liffey Valley too. Sorry
    €77.88 worth for €1.20 :-)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 132 ✭✭rman2727


    Thanks, just picked up some in Navan, plenty of stock there. Might be worth scanning around the air freshener section as they have other brands reduced to .10c

    Was just over in halfords, Carlow. None in stock, nor did they know anything about it :-(

    Should I expect you to be selling all of these on adverts shortly? Seriously does your car smell that bad that you need 20 airfresheners?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,238 ✭✭✭Kaizersoze81


    Just got all 33 of them available in blanch . They must have restocked the shelves after you left OP. :) 3 euro 30 cent :D
    Off to adverts I go. Thanks OP

    y'all must have stinky cars... or are you planning to leave a stinky fish in the back to make the most of the 'bargin' :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    Seriously, who needs that many air fresheners? Did you just want to make sure nobody else got any?

    What's the problem? Item for sale in shop at a certain price. I buy said item. It's not like I robbed them.

    You get two types of people in this situation. Those who buy what they need and leave some for others, and then there are those who clear the shelves. Different mindsets.

    Little point in arguing with anyone. And lets be honest they are just car air fresheners. I personally can't stand them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,997 ✭✭✭68 lost souls


    I think the big problem I have is "Here's a bargain alert" but wait I bought them all so there is none left for you.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,734 ✭✭✭zarquon


    Shelves are cleared in Galway too. Store assistant said one individual bought up almost the whole stock!!! Serious selfish gits out there! Why not take what you need only!


  • Registered Users Posts: 91 ✭✭bars


    5 per customer in Wexford.:-(

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 771 ✭✭✭breeno


    This thread is the perfect example of what's great and what's terrible about bargain alerts! 33 air fresheners! The mind boggles....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,207 ✭✭✭Rashers72


    None left in Airside Swords by 1pm yesterday. Picked up a spray version for 10 cent.

    Couple hundreds if that suit you....
    I was with friend of mine and he asked me to buy few for him as he didn't have a wallet.Gave him 50 cent and problem sorted.

    Wow. People blatantly coming here to make a profit should be banned. It goes against the spirit and purpose of bargain alerts. I bet there's people out there that don't bother to post alerts anymore due to members like this

    Liffey Valley - Halfords Air Wick Car Air Freshner - New car aroma maybe 5 left 2 hours ago


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,490 ✭✭✭skinny90


    Absolute gem of a deal. I assume their just clearing out stock.its probably limited to certain stores.plenty in Sligo! Decided not to be too greedy and buy just five :-)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,373 ✭✭✭Invincible


    There was athread about it here last night, posters saying they had cleared the shelves for themselves.

    Is it just the vanilla scented ones reduced in Sligo?

    Damnit! I had that in my hand and put it down. Any left?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 863 ✭✭✭boardzz


    Plenty of stock left in Galway this morning. I got all 28 on the shelf and asked if they had more in the stock room. In total I got 62 at the bargain price of 6.20.
    There is 0 left if anyone is thinking of trying there now.
    How great am I?

    Well done! Put em all in at once you deserve it!


  • Registered Users Posts: 179 ✭✭AlwaysAnyTime


    Bought 20,000 of them in Blanch for just €2,000. Should keep me going for a few years.

    Seems this promotion is not just Halfords only. I'd happily give more info but too many greedy people on this thread so happy hunting elsewhere!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,006 ✭✭✭xabi


    The vanilla ones are horrible.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,269 ✭✭✭deegs


    Just looking online... seems the vapour can melt some dash interiors... ouch.... did ye keep your receipts for returns?

    Hmmm, seems like a good reason for the Air Wick clear out. They are practically giving them away for free.

    Edit: More info here. Quite a few reports of melting dashboards!! Best to avoid these air fresheners.

    I'll keep an eye out for Boardszz, he should be the one with with a malformed dashboard.#

    There had to be a catch for a company to sell off their stock like that for practically nothing.
