Tesco changed their price from Guinness slabs from €20 to €25 despite previously advertising in-store and on their website that the slabs were going to be €20 until early May. Poor form from them

Yes saw them there last Wednesday evening at €20. Went in especially on Thursday and overnight they had gone up.

Update on Tesco deals. Probably all posted already...
There's loads more 4 for 10 / 3 for 9 etc.

MiskyBoyy · 02-05-2019 4:14pm

Budweiser and Carlsberg cans 1 euro each SuperValu

odyssey06 · 03-05-2019 10:22am

Appleman's Cider 500Ml Can
Special OfferSAVE 1.49 Was 2.49 Now 1.00
valid from 1/5/2019 until 15/5/2019

thats the standout one for me. Have not tried it yet and did not really want to have to buy a load of them on offer, and no way I was paying 2.50 for 1.

Cheers for this, all 3 are lovely wines

hatrickpatrick · 04-05-2019 1:31am

Bit late posting this I know, but it's valid until Monday night:

Molloys

Two bottles of prosecco for €18 isn't bad, and knowing Molloys it'll be properly decent prosecco at that. I don't drink Hendricks generally, but I'm guessing this isn't a bad deal for that either?

Limestone1 · 04-05-2019 1:51am

also Dunnes were doing the usual BH €25 1l gin/vodka today (€40 for 2 with vouchers). Was in Tesco last night and nothing much on spirits so this was a relief ....

Paranoid Mandroid · 04-05-2019 10:17am

Tesco, doing Jameson caskmate for €25. The stout edition is excellent. Usually around €38 I think. Apologies if posted already.

That’s a good deal.

The stout was is really nice.

The ipa one isn’t great. Not terrible but the stout one really is the one to get.

Wouldn't mix the Jameson Caskmates with anything, maybe sip it with glass\bottle of pilsner or IPA.

Applemans bottles €1 in Tesco. Cans are also still a euro till the 15th

Gald I just got the single can, I did not like it much, has the same artifical twang off it as orchards theives, but less sweet than orchards thieves.

Very good price for that though, its a 500ml bottle

CWF · 08-05-2019 8:23pm

Cobra beer 12 for €12 in Lidl

10green bottles · 09-05-2019 4:19am

Hi I’ve only ever tried the punk IPA? If I like that is there a good chance I’d like the others?

Some of them are a bit 'out there'- such as the fruity ones- they just don't work for me. At a quid a bottle- its worth a shot- maybe you might find another one or two that you like- no way would I pay full price for a mixed pack though.

Yes there is a good chance you'll like 3 out of 4.
Even if not at that price it's worth a try.

fin12 · 09-05-2019 8:57pm

Thanks I’ll try pick up a pack, is there only one O Brien’s off license in Cork? I googled it and can only find one in Douglas coming up? I thought there might have been one in Blackpool?

Nope, just Douglas, it's a lovely shop though and certainly worth a trip out with the offer on Brewdog.

Picked up 2 packs in Ardkeen. None on shop floor but plenty out back.

That's serious value. You can get it online, 5 cases for free delivery. Punk is savage, it's on tap in whetherspoons

I got a bottle of Jack as a gift but I dont drink it. Can anyone tell me would the likes of Obriens swap it for something else or take it as part swap? No receipt obviously.

Not unless you know the shop owner. They have no idea what you could have done to the bottle or whats in the bottle for that matter.
A local pub would be best if you they knew you fairly well.

Yeah i saw the page with it but the link to the actual product is broken, was hoping to check local store stock to save me a wasted trip.

Sounds like a challenge TBH.

Really liking the Elvis juice. Would drink a lot more Brewdog if it wasn’t overpriced.

If people are in the area there were a good few boxes in Dalkey this morning!

TheDriver · 11-05-2019 5:08pm

Has anyone ordered off obriens online? I ordered Thurs night abd it's still processing? How do they do their age checks?

elperello · 11-05-2019 6:15pm

If you are going for the beer anyway, O'Briens also have Black Bush at €25.

fin12 · 11-05-2019 8:09pm

All the Brewdog is sold out in Douglas Cork shop.

bazz26 · 13-05-2019 10:06pm

Bought 10 cans of that Appleman Cider on offer in Tescos. It's not that bad and will certainly go down well if we get a summer like last year. Taste wise it's mid way between Bulmers and Orchards Thieves so not overly sweet at all. I'll be a cider head by the end of the week.

Tesco offer ends on the 15th for anyone keen on trying it @€;1 a can:
