    Worth checking Homestore and More - their monthly half price offer is on suitcases for May.

    Where's good/best to get an external hard drive?
    I'm guessing PC world?

    I checked them out in local store in Dublin and the quality is dreadful. Barely worth the "half price" and an absolute ripoff if they were ever sold at full price.

    Funny - you never see any of their "half price" offers actually on sale at full price. Surprised people never notice that.

    My own opinion is they are an expensive store selling generally poor quality products.

    Argos / PC World, if needed ASAP, money no object

    This suitcase is something we would use about once a year for about 2 weeks .Surely the quality would stand up to this pressure ?

    Suitcases are good example of getting what you pay for - a good one will last a bad one will leave you gathering your clothes etc off the pavement in the rain.

    Hadn't seen the cases in person, just the ad!

    I know someone else recommended Debenhams and if you can get cases there on sale they are good quality. Also have a really long warranty-I had one where the zip broke after a few years and when I asked in store about repair they said they'd replace it free of charge even with no receipt. Full price they are expensive but they often have 'last seasons' designs on offer!

    Places that I am aware that have or had them over last few days,

    Funk it
    Mr Price
    AppleGreen Tramore
    Euro Giant
    Irepair

    Mr Price and Euro Giant were both selling them for €3 while the rest were selling them for between €5-€9 apparently.

    My young lad bought a few online and was selling them aswell, if you want I can check if he has any left, I know he had 2 red ones left yesterday evening, not sure if he sold them after. He was selling them for €5.

    Anywhere that sells smithwicks blonde? Either on tap or in an off licence

    Haven't seen it anywhere but haven't really looked too hard either


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,641 ✭✭✭gscully


    Saw it last night in The Reg (small front bar)

    Tesco for sure. Supervalu Kilbarry. But defintely in 90% of off licences.

    Not a great flow on it in town on the taps because its not as popular as the metalmans and micro brews.

    I now have an Android / Smart TV and have bought a wireless mouse to use with this .
    Anyone know where I could buy a laptop tray / cushion tray / beanbag tray at a reasonable price ?

    About 12'' x 8'' would do nicely .

    Hey guys,

    Does anyone know of a good beauty salon? I'm new to the area, and not employed yet. So ideally, I usually get my nails done and waxing (leg, underarm and brazilian), and also threading brows. I am looking for somewhere that is reasonably priced, they don't charge outrageously and they do a good job.

    Thanks guys!

    Edit: It doesn't need to be a salon either, if they know of someone who does a good job in their home I'm fine with that.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,467 ✭✭✭deadybai


    Does anyone know anyone who is able to re wire old cables for computers to bring it up to today's technology?

    I have a load of speakers that have become obsolete and a gaming headset that are no good cause they don't have the correct outlet for them

    Does anywhere in town serve Franciscan Well on tap? More specifically the Rebel Red variety!
