As much as I dont agree with how the OP treated the deli worker as its not exactly them making the prices, I remember about 3/4 years ago chicken rolls and a can of coke were about 2.50/3euros in a local centra/spar etc and you could get extras like cheese/egg etc on it for about 20/50 cents each, they were a big staple to my lunchtimes when I was in college then
So, yeah at 3.50 or more now and without a drink too, it does seem a tad expensive, comparativally speaking.

Sure in SuperValu Drogheda I get a chicken fillet roll, any amount of salad free, along with the can of coke for €3! There used to be a bag of crisps with that but you know, the times are changing

Superquinn in heuston charges 5.60.... Yup try paying that a few times over 6 months when your a hungover student.

You must not go in that often. Depending on the mood they are in I get charged between 2.45 for a sandwich with two fillings or 3.95 for chicken wrap regardless of what I get. And they pack the stuff on and have a laugh at the same time. No complaints.
It would bug me paying 4-5 euro and they are mean with the fillings and just throw it at you.

There's a spar on the corner of George's Street that does good rolls!
1.99 for hot chicken fillet, mayo, lettuce and taco sauce! Definitely does the trick before and after a night drinking or for a bite at lunch time!

And had you not seen the signs saying the prices of the rolls beforehand?

Doesn't matter. She doesn't set the prices therefore really doesn't need/warrant some mongo being rude to her. Whatever about disagreeing with the price...that's totally understandable...you don't need to be rude to the employee however.

PS that "chicken" roll you got for 1.99 in supervalu....ye that's not chicken

Yes I hope he enjoyed his cheep roll of mechanically recovered chicken freshly shipped in from Tajikistan.:pac:

Do they do hot chicken rolls in other countries? I don't think I've ever seen them in another country.

One box of Waffo ham €2.99
Ordinary bag of cheese €2
10 slices of corned beef €1.70
Loaf of bread €1.70
3 tomatoes €0.90

€9.29 for 6 lunches. Cant beat that sh*t.

Waffo ham is crap, usually I can pick up Brady's ham on special offer.

6 day old bread. Does your lunch box walk you to work?

Slightly. But fair play to ye :pac:

Googling 'The Latte Factor' I'm always reminded of the wisdom of making your own sandwiches.

But of course there's nothing wrong with the occasional deli visit...

I want to put some things straight here. Firstly I was out of line giving out to the deli staff I was having a bad day and granted I shouldn't have taken it out on her, 99.9% of the time I don't give out to any shop worker or deli worker as they do have hard enough time dealing with other idiots. In relation to buying an item I do have a principle in not over spending on items and it's within my right to accept or not to accept and that's including buying mars/crisps and knowing it's cheaper elsewhere


I had tended to make a topic about other places that over charge silly prices but it didn't come across that way.


Yes if I could find a way getting cheaper stuff then so be it and you don't have to agree with it

That sound you are hearing, ladies and gentlemen, is furious backpeddling

I'm glad After Hours banded together to call the op out on his cunty behaviour.

Too many people using the word recession loosely, seriously that was 2006, were actually out of the recession technically, the sense of entitlement that has come from the recession, I'm not paying your asking price you will have to do better than that because of the recession.

3.50 is totally acceptable to me. Otherwise I'd make my own roll.

Sure most places in Dublin city do chicken rolls for 2 euro. I got a 2.50 breakfast roll the other day though, it was horrible.
