Interested in iPad mini ?

The Times for a year @ €5 is bargain is the year for me

ablelocks

times/sunday times for €5/12 months - €55 saved

irish times €8 per month offer - €96 saved

this is the €151 "saving" that i will use as justification to upgrade my ipad mini (which incidentally, i got free for taking out the times sub in the first place)

The Asus Zenbook from Littlewoods for €269.99 was an excellent bargain.

Wheety

What was the €99 4a? I think I paid €179 and then didn't go back to the thread much. Did they reduce the retail price to €199 while still having the €100 off for switching or was there another method?

Amazon.de - Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 & Samsung Galaxy Buds2 Wireless Headphones -> €348.02 - €155 (Cash Back) = €193.02

just wondering how good is the UK Times (Irish edition) - how much Irish content does it have. It's cheap, but wondering what's in it that may be of interest, compared to Guardian which has alot of the international content anyway.

Muahahaha

The 69 euro Xiaomi 5G for me, great phone and the timing couldnt have been more perfect as my old phone was almost dead with a cracked screen and battery life gone to pot.

The Amazon VAT free purchases were great too, it was like a 20% off sale that lasted 6 months, we will never see the likes of it again.

Got those newspaper deals but for a fiver the Times/Sunday Times is tops for me. Also got the Argie Tidal and Indian YouTube deals.

The latest iPad mini is a little beast of a machine, but it's very expensive and unless you're a creator I'd opt for the basic iPad, which is half the price. I got myself and iPad Air this year, but it's wasted on me as I'm just using it for browsing, reading and watching videos.

Muahahaha

Pretty sure the Guardian is always free, they do have a premium membership which might give a few extra articles but the free version is perfectly adequate for most.

If its magazines you are after then go to your local library website and get a membership number. Then download a free app called Libby and enter the library card number. This will then give you access to thousands of magazine that you can read for free from the current edition to the back catalogue. Theres lots of premium stuff there for free like Hello! magazine and 150 others in the Celebrity/Showbusiness section alone. Theyve tons of sections like wildlife, home and garden, DIY, motoring, health and fitness, etc Theres no need to ever pay for a magazine again with this app.
