Groceries at Amazon

im loving this already
thanks op

So how would you Need to make a a saving?

Excellent. Some good offers on dog food which I wasn't able to order before. I'd say this is not going to last long a la "the tvs over 32" scenario" so going to put in an order soon. Thanks OP:)

Jesus H Christ. This is perverted. I am far from a Greenie but even I have to rail against the notion of everyday groceries being transported from Scotland for home delivery to a house in Ireland. How much energy is being used to affect this delivery?

Fantastic news!

Some of their bulk offers can be great.

Plus they've a lot of hard-to-come-by items.

ever think of how the stuff in your local supermarket got there??

But that comes in bulk containers which is more efficient. Whereas even with some of these items you are still going to do a shop for fresh items in your local supermarkets. However, I would not criticise people for bullk ordering the likes of nappies etc.

If you think that transport is the only environmental impact associated with buying any product you could do with reading this.

Ordering something from the internet to be delivered to your home by an post may even be environmentally friendly compared with the alternative you driving to the shop to buy it.

You are asking us to think twice before buying something from aboard. Should people in other countries think about buying things from their own country instead of buying things from Ireland? If everyone was to think like that Ireland would have to grow its own bananas and oranges and make its own cars and tvs.

Got a load of dog food, Cheers OP

Thanks OP, this is a great resource for American foods that are hard to get in Ireland.

Indeed it is. Hidden Valley Ranch dressing and cholula (hot sauce).
Though I have a massive tub of Cholula so will not be running out any time soon

no savings on pet food.

Whiskas 4x12 pouch on special at £14. (about €16)
Local Tesco = 2 x 12 pouch €7
Local Dunnes = 24 pack €7
Local Spar = 3.99 for 12 pack

All 3 cheaper than amazon

£14.99 to buy but over £34 to deliver! - and thats before I choose an Irish delivery address.

Just Red Vines.. they're very tasty too.
