    Spend over 10 euro or so and you get a 3 euro voucher off your next shop that's above 18 euro.

    Going on boards while at work may make you lazy or in many cases you're bored and need something to do. I don't use boards if I'm working but many people do and being honest, a few minutes spent on boards is nowhere near comparable to you downloading a film illegally. To even try and make the comparison is ridiculous.

    Yes it is!!!

    20 euro an hour for someone with a few years experience. 12 mins a day = 1 hour a week = 80 euro a month you steal from your employer

    I think the Oreos are a great price in dealz

    Just because there are a few extremely successful artists out there does not mean that they all are. The majority of writers, musicians, film makers aren't all that well off and as such saying that stealing doesn't affect people as everyone is rich is nonsense. I know a number of authors, some quite prolific who will sell 100,000 copies of their book and still struggle to put food on the table. Just because people like Brad Pitt and Stephen King have millions to their name does not mean that everyone does. The fact that people were suggesting pirating a film rather than pay 1.49 for it in Dealz says a lot. even when it's cheaper than a cup of coffee they still complain

    Yawn. Lads if you want to try and justify your stealing then that's fine but it doesn't make it right. If you are happy to sit at work and browse the web all day then more power to you. I'm sure that you can easily justify both deeds in your own little mind.

    Anyone who thinks that Dealz DVDs are too expensive and encourage people to get them for free is scum, simple as. I bet if you produced a product or service and people stole it you'd be the first to complain and cray about the injustice of it all

    If you all love Dealz so muchthen you'll explode with joy if Home Bargains ever open in the Republic.

    Cant see where you get that one from? Just had a look at their site and their prices and TBH there are better bargains in Dealz and elsewhere when you take into account the sterling price...i.e.-David Beckham after shave £9.99 but only 10euro in Dealz...

    Often pop into Dealz for a sambo or a wrap - 1.49.

    They're exactly the same as the ones they used sell while i was in UCC for about 3.99


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 810 ✭✭✭muincav

    Had another look and have to agree that some things are better value especially the "bulk" items, and then you have more variety with more expensive and larger goods that Dealz dont stock, so You have a point,(a good point...lol) and I personally would like to see a few of these stores here,,,,,they kinda remind me of Instore..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,133 ✭✭✭Patty O Furniture


    Same with some of the electrical stuff, like the HDMI leads, compared to the one's in other electrical shops for €6.99 - €9.99 :eek:

    But other stuff you'll find cheaper elsewhere, but thats only a few stuff thrown in, all in all a great shop as you never know what you're gonna get.

    Home bargains is indeed a great shop, no ridged price structure there though. Had some great bottled beer deals from time to time. Better for non food, could pick up some very cheap, decent toys as well. Preferred it to poundland myself.

    Thanks for pointing out the part I've bolded :rolleyes:, as most normal people are on a tight budget.
    Your post comes across as very snobbish tbh.
    Shopping in Aldi/Lidl, snobbish?
    Remember the days when the snobs used to shop in Brown Thomas?

    Bought Pedigree Dog Christmas Stockings in Dealz, Tallaght... €5.99 in Tesco, €3 in Dealz...

    Is that across all stores? Did that particular store just open and are having a promotion?

    I picked up some hydrogen peroxide teeth whitening pens. Pretty good.

    It's perfectly fine. Hydrogen Peroxide is used in all good quality teeth whitening systems and is the only effective method to whiten teeth. Whitening toothpaste on the other hand is ineffective and damages your enamel as it is so abrasive.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,420 ✭✭✭✭athtrasna


    This thread seems to go off topic much more so than most :confused:

    Dealz have a beautiful Christmas Story pop up book at the moment for €2. There's a small story book, the main book which is a pop up of the nativity scene, and pages of pop out characters you can stand in the scene. Truly gorgeous and an absolute steal at that price.

    I got one of the €3 till spits a few weeks ago. I spent over €20 that night and got the voucher, was about a six week validity period on it so quite impressive.

    I love Dealz. Any time I need any sort of toiletries, I would make the travel in to pick them up there. Heck, I used to go to Carphone warehouse and buy badly made phone chargers for nearly a tenner - they would break a few weeks later. Bought the cable in Dealz for €1.49 and it's still good over nearly 2 months later.

    Really? I seen those pens but I wasn't too sure if they were safe...:confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,821 ✭✭✭fussyonion


    While we're on the subject of toothpaste, I mentioned that I bought Arm & Hammer from Dealz.

    I remember an article in a magazine some years ago where they were doing a trial of whitening toothpastes and Arm & Hammer came out on tops.

    That's why I was so eager to find it...obviously I did find it in Dealz.
    Have to say, I'm very impressed by it.

    I don't have yellow teeth but this stuff has slightly whitened them to a degree that I've noticed it, as have others.

    It does have a funny taste, though, I think due to the baking soda, but it doesn't put me off.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,494 ✭✭✭Sala


    I picked up a bottle of carpet cleaner 1.49, looks and smell identical to the vanish powershot which I have been paying over 7 euro for in tesco. I also got a bottle of vanish liquid for 1.49. Great stuff.


  • Registered Users Posts: 280 ✭✭Ky Abu


    Lyons 240 teabags €6. Good bargain.

    €3 off when you spend over €18 on anything. So if you wanted, you could actually get 3 boxes of Lyons for the equilivant of €5 for 240teabags!

  • Registered Users Posts: 392 ✭✭NickDunne


    Dealz FTW!

    I got 5 x 1 litre bottles of the premixed antifreeze for a grand total of €7.45 :D

    Better than trying to guess the ratio by using concentrate. No fuss, no muss!

    I assume you mean screenwash, I wouldn't be putting the stuff from Dealz in my car's cooling system.

    No, he used the word antifreeze.

    I know what he said. You can buy screenwash which has anti frost properties so it doesn't freeze in your washer bottle. This is not to be confused with antifreeze which is added to the cooling system, as anybody who uses screenwash for this purpose could quickly and possibly expensively, find out.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,382 ✭✭✭✭rubadub


    Its anti-freeze,

    You are the only one here who mentioned screenwash. You know what they say about assumptions...

    Why wouldn't you use Carplan/Prodriver antifreeze? They're Ethylene based like any other and at 50% ratio is good for -34. I doubt we'll ever see that temperature here and I'm not exactly precious about a 96 micra ;)

    They also have 24 cans of Coke for €10, not the best deal.

    Someone posted on here a while back that they got "Hick" on DVD, and a book on The Hacienda in Dealz. Anyone spotted these? I'd actually like both but to date haven't been able to find either. If any fellow boardsie spots either could they pick me up one and I'll happily reimburse and a little extra? Ta!

    Not 100% positive this is the book that was referred to but hoping it is:

    Anyone know what happened to the 1.50 store in the ilac that was joined to Iceland?
    Are they just remodeling? It's always so busy when I've been in there, it's hard to believe it's the doing of the recession?
