Supervalu are worth a look for cheaper Redbreast 12yo. The one in Galway has it for E35.29, and also has Locke's 8yo for E33
Big difference considering Dunnes & Tesco have it for E44.99

Greenspot in Harvest off-license in Galway @ E34.95

I have a feeling it is only O'Brien's Off licences in Dublin.


No change/rise on Duty for Alcohol in the emergency Budget. Fags up 25cent though so bad news for all the puffers out there.

Aye, I wouldn't mind a 92 Knappogue myself. I have a couple of the 94s and 95s, and one of the 93 (for my daughter) thanks to IWC, but it would be really nice to have a 92 if you had a third hand spare, Michael!

I would buy loads if i could the problem is unlike every other major airport Dublin doesnt do buy before you fly and collect on return, which sort of hinders me as i travel light, im travelling through there on Tuesday so i might ask if they can do something for me, however there is absolutely loads of it up there
