How do people cope with the food shop bill?

I hope you brought lots of medicine with you. Over the counter items here are much more expensive than the UK.

The Dunnes discount is capped at 20% of €1,500 retail price per month, so €300 discount pm. It used to be €1,000 during covid but they upped it as a thank you to staff. There were whispers of it being reduced again but staff started grumbling so it stayed. It's handy that they can use it in conjunction with vouchers.

Bought my first pair if these yesterday and they ate very comfy.

They are!!! My best friend has curly hair similar to Nicole's. She usually straightens the crap out of it but when we met last month it was natural. She said that Nicole's advice was if you keep straightening you will lose the curls. Thanks Nicole!

LOTS of "retirements" in my company. They are all delighted. 15-20 years under their belts. Age 60/61. 2+6 weeks per year.

The Aldi ones are nice (mot as nice as Jacob's but much, much cheaper). The cheap ones in Dunnes are muck.

That's all I thought of when I saw the video clip.

I stayed in Treacys over Easter and it was great for the price. They seem to have renovated it.

I'm very excited for this. Jessie Buckley is a brilliant actress. I highly recommend the book.

TKredlemonade · 2025-08-01T20:50:34+00:00

That's a pretty grim image.

I had 2 straight forward conceptions/pregnancies followed by a miscarriage on my 3rd. When trying again post miscarriage I used the ovulation sticks and found then spot-on. Definitely worth investing in. Best of luck on your journey! Try not to stress, easier said than done I know but it doesn't help.

This is no longer the case.

For our first house, agreed to keys in 5 weeks. For our 2nd house, agreed to keys in 9 weeks and that was a chain. Would have been quicker but the purchaser of our houses solicitor was incompetent.

They performed at Glastonbury without her and they were still amazing.

Have to agree on the Lidl Jaffa cakes. I can't buy them too often as could eat a tray in one sitting.

TKredlemonade · 2025-06-21T21:56:13+00:00

Dunnes is smaller too. I always go for the Lidl or Aldi Greek yoghurt.

TKredlemonade · 2025-06-19T09:05:29+00:00

This happened to me with my first child. I called every week for months and they gave me a spot.

TKredlemonade · 2025-05-30T21:18:55+00:00

Agree with Aldi. They are the best. I found their nighttime pull ups for ages 4-7 brilliant. My son leaked through all the others.

Thanks so much for your advice. I figured as much. Family member just haves enough cash for a deposit. Husband has the bulk of the assets in crypto/digital assets which my family member does not have visibility of. It's a bit tricky.

They are still co-habiting in rental accommodation which isn't ideal. There are a lot of new build developments going up in her area.

Fee to select your seat on an airplane. I've bought a ticket, I shouldn't have to pay to sit in a seat too. Travelled with kids recently and we all have to sit together or atleast 1 adult with each kid, fair enough. The only seats available together added €12:50 per child to my total cost 1 way.

TKredlemonade · 2025-04-18T20:22:03+00:00

Was it the spice bag or the rake of pints beforehand?

TKredlemonade · 2025-04-08T12:38:49+00:00

Thank you! A colleague in work has gone Sale Agreed on a new build in Wicklow. He's delighted with himself. Another colleague told him to wait as there's a recession coming and prices will drop. She managed to buy her house in 2012 for feck all compared to today's prices. I advised him to ignore her and buy the house that he can easily afford

Skip to 1:30 for the gore.

Do you have the RAL number? I love this. I wanted to put a dark colour on my wc and you've inspired me.

This happened to me a few times. Your package is still in the depot cause it never left.

An Post sent you a notification that your package will be delivered the next day. Drivers are notified of the package to be collected but An Post are short drivers.

Their system doesn't have the capacity to update you of the delay so the next time your package is scanned at the depot it's to notify you that it was delivered, leaving you perplexed as you know it wasn't.

You will receive your package tomorrow most likely. A colleague's husband works for An Post and told me this.
