Yvonne that was my old "Castlemanor" butchers and it was great.
I bring my coins to AIB on Dyer street and if you have an accout they dont charge you to change your money
January 15, 2008 at 10:21 pm #52388mamacitaMemberI didn’t know they did that at AIB. I always see those change machines in the supermarkets- they charge 10 or 20 percent to count your change!
January 15, 2008 at 10:22 pm #52389Taylor5MemberYeah, but you have to have an account. Some local postoffices take them free aswell.
January 15, 2008 at 10:44 pm #52397ed1Participantthe bank of ireland take them too. as long as you have them sorted into money bags.
January 16, 2008 at 7:34 am #52404noeleenwMemberi bring them to my local shop, they are glad to take them as they get charged for change in bank , before christmas i gave ds a bag of change there was 15 euro in it he brought it to li**style sports to buy a ball the cashiers jaw hit the floor when she had to count it , it was all 20 cents sod them money is money
January 16, 2008 at 11:54 am #52416Taylor5MemberOh it has to be in bags for the AIB and the Post Office…. Your right money is money, sure it wouldnt take long to count 15euro in 20 cents. I know an old woman who pays for her paper or milk in 1 and 2 cents, its all fine saying money is money but I do be saying a few other things when stuck behind her with a crabby ds in his buggy 😆 😆 😆 😆 😆 😆
January 16, 2008 at 12:13 pm #52420noeleenwMemberthats why i sent ds in 😆 😆 😆 😆
January 16, 2008 at 4:21 pm #52439Taylor5MemberMy mam takes ages to fiddle in her purse and we were in a shop last week, when the girl kept tut tuting as she was taking so long….. my mam said out very loud "Sorry, Dear am I not going quick enough for you?, well Im nearly 70, with your attuide you wont see 70!" 😳 I ran out of the place 😆
January 16, 2008 at 4:43 pm #52445pinkbabeMemberDunno why the staff in shops go on like that… they are there from 9 to 6 regardless of how long ur mum takes @ the til
I used to love the old dears that came into the shop I worked in while I was preggers (some even bought L pressies when she was born)
January 17, 2008 at 9:38 am #52501YvonneMemberThat happened at the Next sale – but with a much higher amount! The girl said it was €270 something and the customer started handing her bags of change!
January 17, 2008 at 5:22 pm #52637Taylor5MemberAh thats a bit crappy doing that in the sales when the staff would be mad busy…. but its still legal tender 🙄
Girls is anyone fed up paying 70 or 80 quid a month on Sky? Well I am!
I was just talking to a friend who has NTL (he lives in Dublin) he has the basic package for about 30 euro a month, he got a box off the internet for 150euro you plug it into the back of your NTL box and you can get ALL the NTL/Chrous packages. they up grade their security systems every so often but you log online and get new codes and reset the box…. Well Im going to give it a go!January 17, 2008 at 6:14 pm #52640pinkbabeMemberA few of my mates have that free view box too & find it great
I only have basic NTL digi (no movies, no sports) & find it grand so wouldn’t be bothered with it myself, I had sports & movies for a while but only ended up killing bf over sports & find movies cr@p
January 17, 2008 at 6:36 pm #52650happymumblemumParticipantYes we know about that taylor heard it is great …would defo do it but we would miss Sky plus too much 😆 😆 cant beat being able to pause live telly especially with sprogs around 😆 .
January 17, 2008 at 10:06 pm #52655Taylor5MemberHMM ntl do the same thing its called dvd live or something, you can pause and record live tv for 8 euro a month
January 18, 2008 at 9:36 am #52687happymumblemumParticipantYeah thats right forgot that, however i dont like ntl its very slow to changechannel and the menus are crap… very particular about my telly.
We actually have a massive hard drive strapped to our dvd player and have zillions of movies music and photos on it and just watch them directly thru the telly, a menu pops up on the telly with differetn folders… dunno how dp does all this 😆 😆 if it was me i would be sitting there with a black and white telly and a betamax video recorder 😆 😆 -
