    That was a gaff deal.
    Any other deals?

    What you mean? Store specific?

    I saw it in Cork Merchant's quay anyway.

    Got Diet Pepsi in Blanch today .dated Sept 17 though


  • Registered Users Posts: 335 ✭✭MB05


    It was in Dealz Clarehall last week too. Can't comment on the best before date as I didn't check it.

    I picked up Twin Peaks today, Dealz answer to Toblerone that they ended up in court over. There is more than tha regular toblerone, the chocolate is better than the crappy Mondelez stuff that’s in the Tobelerone these days and has more honey comb. Well worth a punt.

    They're all just DVD - not Blu Ray. Dealz one was €10 I think. And I'm nearly sure my local one still have some of them left.

    I saw the breaking bad blu ray several months ago in stillorgan, it was only the final season.

    I already have it on DVD, but I almost bought it at that price.

    They had several other blu rays that I was surprised to see. Many are very basic, with very few extras if any, but I remember the breaking bad did have a few extras on it.

    Pretty subjective. At times I've gotten better quality, longer lasting garments in Penneys than I have from brands (Adidas/Nike/Puma included) or even supposed higher end brands (Hollister/A&F).

    If you're going to be paying c.€5 for jeans and less for tops & tees then I wouldn't expect the highest quality but we might all be pleasantly surprised.

    They are supposed to be targeting Pennys so quality will probably be similar. Probably made by the same 8 year old in Bangladesh.

    if it is short dated it is probably the old full sugar lucozade, might get myself some. They changed the recipe to avoid paying high sugar tax. So now it is fairly useless as an energy drink or hangover cure or for sick people. Ludicrous decision, be like smirnoff saying "hang on, if we drop the % to 20% we pay far less tax! yes and lose all your customers and main supposed selling point.

    The twin peaks bars are great, the sticky nougat stuff is much smaller than in the large toblerone, which stick in my teeth. It is more like the size you get in the small bars, or treat size toberlones.

    Really is awful, it's literally like someone got Lucozade sport and poured table sugar into it and shaked it up a little.

    In fairness, this sugar tax is a bit pointless if you ask me. Messing around with recipes to avoid tax and adding other chemicals that aren't exactly tested yet.

    Things like Lucozade should be left as is by manufactures, if you don't know that Lucozade is loaded with sugar then good luck.

    Lego Dimensions character packs in Blanchardstown- 6 Euros.

    Only saw Wonder Woman and her airplane but may be more.

    Fun if overpowered addition if you have the Lego game.

    The portal was for sale with Batman and Gandalf in Smyths for 20 Euros- not sure if still on sale.

    I was saying as it is short dated it might be the old full sugar one. It was in tesco for a good while afterwards, but only in overpriced single bottles.

    Probably in other 2euro type shops. I am surprised the old one is not back, I was hoping it was all just a marketing scam.

    COMIC-CON 2010: Wonder Woman’s invisible jet for sale…not!
    July 23, 2010 | 11:25 p.m.


    Wonder Woman Invisible Jet
    This is one collectible you’re going to want to keep mint-in-box.

    Mattel’s Wonder Woman Invisible Jet isn’t just invisible, it’s nonexistent. The Hot Wheels packaging suggests that the jet is nestled within the cardboard and plastic molding (pictured on right).

    Gullible buyers can be forgiven for thinking there’s a miniature jet in the box — Mattel’s designers had weights hidden inside to make it feel as if it actually contained a toy.

    The joke continues on the back of the box, in the place where Mattel usually provides quick facts about the vehicle inside, such as its make and model. Here’s an excerpt:

    Designer: The Amazons

    Birthplace: Paradise Island

    Specialty: Created by Amazon engineering, Wonder Woman’s Invisible Jet can make transatlantic flights without refueling.

    The idea was spawned April 1, when Mattel’s social marketing team came up with a prank post on Facebook that announced it would start selling the jet. Its artists mocked up a box and posted the picture. Most got the joke, but many didn’t. So many people asked the company where they could purchase the item that Mattel decided to make it a limited-edition collectible.

    Mattel is selling the $5 non-toy as a Comic-Con International exclusive item on the show floor until Sunday, after which the invisible jet will disappear. For real.

    If people see the lucozades could they please check the total carb content.

    The old one would be around these figures, best to check the "per 100ml" as the other will vary.

    5141sVlti9L.jpg

    the new one is 8.9g total carbs
    Lucozade-PR.jpg

    Cans would be the best bet, as PET bottles lose fizz a lot faster.

    I would have no problem drinking cans of lucozade a few years out of date.

    well I got it myself in stillorgan, it is the old full carb one, BB april 2018, 4x380ml bottles for 1.50. Tasted like it was the standard fizz level to me.

    There were 8 packs for 3euro too, not sure if they were old full sugar stock.

    I used always use lucozade as a hangover cure but lately it definitely wasnt working and didn’t seem to taste the same either. Guess I know now why.

    I get a 6 pack in Mr Price for 2 euro but I’ve just checked the ingredients and they are the new recipe.

    Yep it’s still open and busy as hell, asked staff and they have heard nothing about it closing, maybe Dealz are going to re-appeal the decision. I hope it stays open as the nearest for us would be Tallaght or blanch.
