    Hey there boardsies! :)
    Viewing an ad on TV for "Extreme Couponing" made me think of past times when I was still leaving in my country of origin (Italy) where coupons seems to be more common/easy to find and use both on and off line...
    So I thought, why not open a thread to keep notice of all coupons retireving occasions in Ireland?
    Is there anyone interested? Are there any desperate housewives round here (or househubbies for that matter)


    Full list of coupon attachments here:>>>>>>> LINK


    Looking around in "the real world" and the net, and also thanks to other boardises here in the Bargains section here's what I found till now:

    Online -->

    www.pigbacks.com , decent on-line resource, subscribe to the food&grocery newsletter and they will e-mail you when they put up new coupons to be printed, ot go to the "coupons" section from the menu on the top of the page

    http://www.loveirishfood.ie and more specifically http://www.loveirishfood.ie/coupons.aspx , there is little on at the moment but hopefully more coming

    http://www.moypark.ie/
    doesn't have coupons on as per today's date but should usually have them

    http://www.glenisk.com/ subscribe to the newsletter fromt he menu on the left of the page to receive coupons

    https://www.cushelle.com/ offers a coupon (but I am sure there are ways to print more than one for family) for 60 cents off, they also deliver it to your door in case you are printer-less

    http://www.bigals.ie/ and more specifically
    http://www.bigals.ie/Sizzlin-Summer-BBQ-Offers.56.1.aspx different range of bbq related coupons (double take if you "like" them on FB as per FB widget on the left)

    http://www.todayfm.com/Libraries/Today_FM_Documents/Persil_Voucher.sflb
    , a temporary coupon for Persil Liquid, valid until December 2011


    Offline -->

    In my local SuperValu (Wicklow Town) I found a Hellmann's recipes booklet (with brownies one the cover??? lol) with a 80 c off all mayonnaise range products. Booklets are free so pick up as many as u need, I am pretty sure same booklets can be found around Ireland and in different supermarkets too.


    I am sure there is more around, both in "real life" and online, I will try to update this when I find out more but what about maybe make a sticky of this, Mods?

    Also...anyone want to share some stories about your couponing successes or less? I am a noobie again anyway :)

    thanks a million, started couponing recently and am really getting good value when I double them up with Tescos half price offers


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,422 ✭✭✭Tirabaralla


    Thank you all for the thanks, guys and gals!
    Does anyone have any links/suggestions to add? For example I dunno if it is possible in Ireland to find coupons on newspapers or mgazines etc.

    @Aruba, thank you, if you have any other suggestions for me I am listening, I am gonna try do the same and "team" the copons with sales/offers etc.

    Did anyone encountered probs while trying to use a copuon on something that the supermarket had on special price already? (yes, I am shy).


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,900 ✭✭✭daytob


    we used the persil today fm coupon in tescos last week. 9 bottles even gave a coupon away to some lady buying one. it was the 54 wash for 6 euros odd.
    had no problems using a lot of coupons ( pigsback ) mind you the csa was rather rude, she was finishing up and we did have a load of shopping. all in all saved 40 euros roughly.

    the today fm coupon runs till dec so print as many as you


  • Registered Users Posts: 78 ✭✭paldude


    Thanks OP - great post in these lean times.

    Your pigsback link is incorrect, should be www.pigsback.com


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,422 ✭✭✭Tirabaralla


    @daytob
    TY for sharing, it gives me courage lol and also I didnt realize that the Persil one was printable again and again, yay

    @paldude...ooops! it's the only one I linked "by heart" lol thanks!

    Another one just found: http://www.barrystea.ie/barrys-greentea-coupon.pdf
    one euro off Barry's Green Tea, healthy :D This one too seems to be printable again and again!

    Thank you ! The money you save on coupons always adds up!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,900 ✭✭✭daytob


    @Tirabaralla.
    no worries, just keep an eye on the dates they end. * if a store wont take them you can always complain to someone higher once it is still within the date afaik, and if you kick up good enough you never know it might be for free. :D

    Also ,if you dont have a works printer you can print off loads my suggestion is to get a mono printer. we got one it was only around 50stg from Amazon and we have printed loads already and still have over 700 pages left in the toner cartridge :D

    Centra do their own store coupons on their facebook page

    http://www.facebook.com/CentraIreland?sk=app_199281716758389

    Sticky time, methinks:D


  • Registered Users Posts: 798 ✭✭✭maiden


    A facebook page would be a good idea!


  • Registered Users Posts: 191 ✭✭Jessica Fletcher


    Comfort blue, tropical and pure varieties are all half price in Tesco at €1.99. Use the pigsback coupon for €1 and you'll get it for 99c.

    It's the 1.5 litre 42 wash one

    I've just created one here, feel free to think of a better name etc., only did it so we could form a small community of people who are dedicated to obtaining coupons: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Super-Shoppers/206715976032400

    I was thinking that we would be able to feature all of the coupons mentioned above and hopefully we contact some brands who would be happy to supply coupons for us to post on our page? Everyone would be able to contribute and we'd then be able to get a domain sometime.

    The picture will be changed soon also, I'll get a picture of some Irish coupons to use :D

    Centra have Hellmannn's Mayo in various flavours (Real/Light/Chili/Garlic/Lemon) in squeezy packs at half price till June 4th - add in the voucher above and that's a steal!!

    PS: if Centra have it, it's likely Supervalu will have the offer too.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,486 ✭✭✭dowtchaboy


    Since many of these bargain offers are now being linked to Facebook, and often require you to "Like" the store or product - to save your Facebook account being clogged up with crud and 'news' you don't care about, why not create a special FB account just for this stuff (and for competitions etc.)?
    My alter-ego (just think up some silly name) just LOVES all these offers, competitions, etc. !! Right now he's best friends with Centra, 3- Mobile, E-Mobile, Jackobs Creek, Odlums.....:D

    That's what "Super Shoppers" is doing, I have a seperate facebook account which I can get the coupons and then post them for other people to use without having to like the page. See my post above :)
