I notice that M&S started theirs on the UK website yesterday but nothing on the Irish site which is a little frustrating.

Nothing from Dunnes yet. Or Next Ireland. Both of which I would usually shop.

Currys have some good deals so far.

I usually rely a lot on Sales for clothes for the kids. Single income household so trying to save money.

I don't know what age kids, but if they like sportswear, Lifestyle and JD both have online sales, and Schuh too for runners.

It's annoying about Dunnes, M&S and Next as was keeping an eye out for these. Wondering now if they will defer to February on account of gov recommendations...but I cant see why they just wouldnt run online sales.....thoughts?

I'd imagine it would be a mess if you could buy sale items online with Dunnes but not instore

It is annoying. M&S and Dunnes would be my go to’s for the sales.
I had a look at MS UK and there were some things I would like but with Brexit and the closing down of Parcel Motel, that’s not a runner either.

Brown Thomas have their sale and its saying 'exclusively online'..does that mean things are more expensive in store?

As for M&S AFAIK we compete with UK shoppers for stock in a normal day so by having no sale here online and they have one there there won't be any decent stock left in a few days day ls let alone February...

Next always tell Irish customers they they have an Irish warehouse that "our" sale stock comes from, yet every sale time Next.co.uk starts first and by the time Next.ie starts there is very limited stock left.

An Post have the facility, customs checks are performed in UK (send to address) and they sent to Ireland.

except you'll be paying VAT in both UK and Ireland and an admin fee. Unless it's a retailer who is setup to send things to Ireland and charges IRL VAT only and declares it eg amazon

Marks have said they're deferring their January sale. Gutted they're not doing it online.

You wont end up paying both UK and Irish VAT.
you will pay Irish VAT only. Are you suggesting that 20% UK VAT and then 23% Irish VAT will be Charged on the same product?

uli84

Nothing much these days, Boots for perfumes maybe, the rest of the sales in the UK only, Not sure what the deal with Dunnes is, maybe tomorrow (?)

votecounts

Seemed to be a lot of people in Pennys for a shop that doesn't have a sale:D

Im not sure how many sales will be on as Covid rules require blocks and mortar shops not to have January sales. Im not sure if that extends to click and collect but there was mention of it somewhere.

I wouldnt be surprised if the non essential retail shops were ordered to close again within the next few days.

Posted this back in November and the links still bring you to a sale, just stick with the .ie sites as I'm not aware of any brexit implications as of yet.

That's exactly what will happen where retailers are not set up to charge a separate VAT rate for Irish costumers.
You'll be charged UK VAT at checkout and then Irish VAT + admin charges when your item arrives here.

That's exactly what will happen. You then have to reclaim back the UK vat. It's important to now only purchase off companies that have an Irish vat registration. More details will become known over the next few days once people review the agreement.

Now that UK retailers know where they stand with respect to exports to IRL, it will be interesting to see how many make provision on the VAT issue.

The days of it being worthwhile to get stuff sent via NI using Parcel Motel look to be over, which is a pity. Getting hit with double VAT and an admin fee is not going to make the NI Parcel Motel address viable I reckon.

As well as sometimes being a money saver on postage fees, it was often the only convenient way to get stuff from UK retailers who would not post directly to Ireland or stuff that simply was unavailable online here in Ireland.

Parcel Motel are no longer offering an NI service as of 28th Dec, so it's not even an option nevermind being worthwhile or not!

Yes, the Ireland and UK sites share stock so it basically means there's going to be feck all left online when they finally do a sale here

The Nike and Adidas sale is very good for anyone looking for clothes and trainers

Yes and last time I ordered from Adidas and Reebok (same company) they shipped from either Holland or Germany so hopefully no Brexit impact.

In the market for a dishwasher but any options I see on Currys are either greyed out or there is no Buy it Now button. Not sure if they are sold out of everything or the sale as advertised is not happening at all (at least on dishwashers anyway). Checked Harvey Norman too but not much of a sale, anywhere else good to try for a dishwasher?

I was in Brown Thomas Grafton St today, and half the shop is on sale. Same stuff and prices as advertised online for the few items I was looking at.

Was it not a recommendation rather than an enforceable law? Doubt you'd see the gardai going into shops to see whats on sale. Although I'd agree that non-essential retail will be shut down soon - BT was like a zoo today, worse than what you'd have had in a pub/restaurant.

Power City or DID should be options, usually they are all within €10-€20 of each other for those type of items.
