      I was in Galway recently and I got myself a package a tahoes and a bottle of coke to help the hangover for the drive home. I forgot how cheap everything is outside of Dublin.. I thought she forgot to charge for something. It was under 2 euro for my two purchases..and it wasnt pound/euro city or whatever you call those shops.

      9 euro for a bit of tomato and lettuce between two slices of bread. You’re taking the p*ss, come on. Don’t tell me the lettuce doesnt pick itself and the bread doesnt butter itself..

        50 cents extra for a coke and pack of crisps is a small price to pay to avoid having to live in the bog thanks.

          Are you saying Galway is a bog? You should take a drive over the burren route. The most beautiful landscape anywhere and you call it a bog. tsk tsk. Some of ye really really need to see yer own country..

            Been there, seen that.

            Just to clarify, everywhere outside Dublin is ‘the bog’. Yes, that includes your beloved Stab City.

        You are used to being gouged..it’s ok, you now think it’s normal. Leave Dublin for a while and you’ll get an idea of what the rest of the country pays for a lettuce and tomato sandwich.

          But you have to live in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by peasants, probably in a pebble-dash bungalow that looks like it wants to kill itself, and dig your own pit to store your piss and sh1t?

          Yeah I’ll pay a premium for civilisation, thanks.

            lol The same bungalow with a bit of garden to sit out on and have the odd bbq and more than 2 people over at a time, you’d want to be a neurosurgeon to afford up your civilisation.

          VEGETARIAN WATERFORD ‘BLAAGUETTE’
          with honey roast vegetables, beef tomato & buffalo mozzarella served with fries or soup for €9.50. Bit more than the “lettuce and tomato sandwich” you’re claiming in fairness.

    Claire that doesn’t really fit in with the other rip off receipts posted in here. Most pubs will charge around a Euro for pint of cordial.

    That’s nothing.

    I got charged €12 for 6 very small glasses of ‘cordial’ (water with a splash of blackcurrant ) in Brady’s in Terenure.
    2 thirsty boys watching the rugby with their dad. Oh and that was on top of the €20 + I spent on food.

    Needless to say, we haven’t darkened their towels since …
