Having no money is hard but there is something so sweet about getting your favourite products at a cheaper price. L'Oreal Elnett hairspray in my opinion is one of the best affordable hair sprays althought if you are like me and don't use hair spray that much then you too will prob never have paid out the six or seven eurp for it. However I spotted a generous sized bottle this week in Sam McCauleys chemist in carlow for under three euro. Great buy....its fantastic!... hold the hair really well but yet is very subtle looking.

I've alsoreally taking to the soap and glory range that is available in Boots. It just smells so delicious. Boots seem to be offering 33% off more than they charge the full price. The shower gel is a definate treat and because it is in a pump bottle it does definatly last longer that other shower gels.

Although its has to be some of the timotei shower gel range that I have regularly seen around for 1 euro.

Penney's has always been great for the basics...tights...socks...underware but I can't help but notice how they have totally upped there game lately. In spring I purchased a black blazer for around 25euro... I've since washed it in my machine at home numerous times and apart from snag in the linen from a bracelet catching in it it is in remarkable condition. I really happy with it. The men's shirts there also...the slim fit ones are looking great. I purchased one on sale for 3euro for my boyfriend and he loves it. It looks great on and look like an expensive well made shirt. the mens shits retail at 6euro up to 15euro and are an excellent buy.
Check out some of the bigger penney's (O' Connell st, Mary st or Dundrum) for some exclusive buys.
