    Sounds good. Hopefully they are so busy these days that they aren't checking things too much.

    Will update here as to how it goes.

    May I ask how much did you paid?

    Bought a bottle for £115 and thought that was a great deal.

    the yellow labels in my tesco said today, i.e. should still be on today.

    On the tesco website it says 20 and does not declare it as being an offer, so has no end date.

    They were selling very poorly in my place so it would not surprise me if it gets extended.

    It’s sold out everywhere apparently and empty bottles are going for €80 on eBay

    Went to get drinks in Dunnes and all the wines were more expensive than normal the Guinness was 28 a slab but 2 for 40.
    Carlsberg 23 and Henieken 25. 2 Jameson for 40. I think you can mix and match the Guinness and Jameson.

    FFS that’s a whiskey I’ve wanted to buy for a a while but I’ve bought loads of whiskey for Xmas already.

    These sales have been mental over the past few months.

    If it's a present for a whiskey lover, your €35 would be better spent and more appreciated if you get what ablelocks posted above(Writers Tears & glass set).
    Giving him that proper 12 will only show him/her you don't know about whiskey.

    Are any of the Baileys knock offs in the budget supermarkets any use? And if not, what's the best price one might find on a bottle of the real deal?

    Lidl do a nice enough Cream Liqueur not the chocolate one but the one for 6.99 or thereabouts. It's ok with coffee anyway.
    Baileys is 13 in Dunnes at the moment, it was a tenner for a few days there last week.
