Not used either but I imagine for the money they would not be all that well stitched together for carrying heavy loads, probably fine for light stuff.

Only tried the rucksack. It's like a strongish plastic bag. In fact you'd be better off buing one of the Dealz shopping bags for 50c

Was in Dealz Galway there they have 3 Cans of Vanilla Coke for €1.49

Bought a masonry/ woodstain brush fully expecting to bin it after doing the fence. Not only did it do the fence, it was then used staining the shed. Next job was painting the back of the house- its good as new, no bristle loss, and it grips comfortably. Recognition where it's due- it's a bargain!

Bought 2 of the rucksacks for 2 of my sons. They used them to carry their lunch on a scouts hike but they both fell apart. I'm a big fan of Dealz but some things you do need to spend a bit more on otherwise it's false economy!! Got them grand fold up back packs in Tesco for about €6/7 which are really strong and compact

Aldi and Lidl are the places to watch for backpacks.

Saw both bags. They are crap.

Or Amazon. Got a few of these for the kids three or four years ago and they've held up really well.

My mum had to buy a HDMI cable for her new TV and was about to buy one for 20 quid or so in Tesco. Told her to try Dealz next door and wahey, she nabbed one for €1.49, the dream!

The whole super duper expensive HDMI cables notion is a myth,they either work or they don't.No point spending stupid money on HDMI cables,the cheap ones do the job just as well.

I just clicked into this thread randomly from the home page, and seen this post at the top of the page (quoted by muffler). So it had no context or anything (I didnt know what was being talked about).

To say I nearly fell out of my chair laughing would be an understatement. The over-the-top-ness and randomness of it just sent me into such a fit of laughter.

In Dealz in Limerick yesterday I picked up a Mega Bloks/Moshi Monsters "Seed Cart" set. It's a small set with just 26 pcs incl the monster but excellent value for €1.49. They are the small Lego compatible Bloks, so aged 4+, though my 2.5 year old enjoyed playing with it under supervision.

This is the set; http://www.amazon.com/Moshi-Monsters-Mega-Bloks-80618/dp/B006JUDDJA

That Love Album was a waste ... save a few bob, down on one knee and serenade her with a quick romantic verse instead:

And if a double-decker bus
Crashes in to us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well the pleasure, the privilege is mine

Sorted!

they've started selling 2 pack of Twinkies for €1.49 now.
sounds expensive, but cheaper than the €9.50 for 10 in Tesco.

Picked up a load of Twinkies in a Walmart while in the US a few years back in order to satisfy my curiosity... I'm a fan of anything sweet but thought they were rotten.

But hey, 2 for €1.50 is preferable to the pack of 24 I brought back.. especially if you decide you don't like them!
