Hi,
Due to Brexit things are a bit trickier with ordering online from UK. Not like the good old days!
Thought it a good idea to start one so we don't clog up the other thread with what can and can't be delivered to ROI and what deals we can avail of.
If anyone has any deals they spot in ROI either.

Currently adidas have 35% off if you have Revolut. I ordered bits and it worked perfectly. Free delivery also which also makes me happy!

Book depository has been really slow. Ordered 4 graphic novels and they are coming 1 by 1. I received the 3rd one yesterday, the 4th one hasn't dispatched yet. Bizzare. Wouldn't order again if I needed for occasion.

Hi,I love a good deal,and I also love Christmas,so I was happy to come across this post, as I was starting to get a bit jealous of all the lovely deals that don't apply here😭🤣.
I was in my local Easons today, some items had been priced down. I got two of the very big tubs of Playdoh for the construction sets, for three Euro. I also got a dinosaur activity book for 1.50.

@whatwillicallmyself

Here is my Christmas eve box, If I remember correctly its the largest one you can get on the website. It's not massive

@B84101 oh that looks a fine size, the designs on the boxes are lovely arent they. I saw the ones in argos but they are not in stock anywhere, great price though.

thelegohooverer · 19/09/2021 19:31

I ordered from book depository recently and it had to make its way from Australia Hmm

The prices can be good and I’ve found them very reliable but I wouldn’t order from them if time was of the essence.

B84101 · 19/09/2021 20:57

I do like my Christmas eve box, it's personalised and it's for the whole family, so I'm not getting née ones for each child each year. I use to use the cardboard ones each year until I invested in that one. I love it now and it's great quality, also supporting local too

thelegohooverer · 20/09/2021 15:43

My Tesco had Lego vidiyo Candy Mermaid Beatbox for €7.20. It’s reduced elsewhere to €10, and still on Lego store at £17.99. Stocking filler size.

ShoppingBasket · 20/09/2021 19:19

Got an email from book depository- 10% off code SEPT10
If you order now you will probably have it for Christmas Grin
