If you are in the area, sure pop in, you might surprise yourself with the savings!

From wicking underwear to base layers to shirts and pants to windbreakers to full on parkas, Patagonia can take you naked and outfit you instantly to face the harshest of climates. Their products are extremely well-made and last a long, long time. Which is a good thing, because there's no way in hell I could afford to shop here on a regular basis. Now, this location is an outlet, meaning they sell merchandise from past seasons at a reduced price. The prices are indeed reduced heavily, but the fact that the starting price is so high means the reduced price is still high. I took a look around the store and was dismayed that I couldn't even buy a single item. Even a bra was only reduced to 27 euros. Sad face. If you are a camping nut or just enjoy being outside, this place is worthy of a stop in. Their stuff is really excellent and fun to just look at a wish for, as I do. The main drawback is that, because it is an outlet, you don't have as many options. You're definitely not seeing their full range, which is even more impressive.

I buy a lot of party supplies here, you can buy balloons and have them filled with helium and ready for collection within a few hours. The staff are helpful although they always seem to have a lot to do. The store is huge, with a turnstile to come in and an exit barrier to leave, for security I guess. If you need anything for a specific holiday coming up, they'll have it. Right now, there's a wall dedicated to Easter and St. Patrick's day. They have a great school supply section, along with Art & Craft. It's very handy! Be careful, though, you could end up spending a lot in here. It's easy to forget how much you're spending because everything is cheap but it all adds up at the end. Overall, this is a one stop shop, so if you're ever in need of anything, Mr. Price will have it!

They have completely rearranged the store and it's honestly a million times better now and definitely in a much more presentable state for a shop on O'Connell Street. Homewares are now located upstairs instead of in the basement, and there is a couch area across from the changing rooms at the back of the store for people to take a little rest which is a really nice and sophisticated addition, I don't think I've ever seen a seating area in any Penneys store besides at the shoes. Great area, same up to date stock as Mary Street store and saves you having to tip off down there if you're in a rush.

Brainchild of a former Heaton's exec, and with stock sourced from German retailer Netto Marken-Discount, the shop itself is a rough and ready answer to "Where can I find bulk packs of detergent for less than a tenner?" I still have to do a price comparison on those 6 and 12 packs of diet coke with Tesco across the street - but I'm pretty sure this is the only spot in Dublin where one can buy Chef Tony Smart Lidz (and at a discount!)... possibly the only place in Ireland. But, as with most discount places, get in here while the getting's good. Stock changes as fast as the suppliers can scoop up new shipments of seconds and off-runs of name brand goods. While the shop opened in September of '09, the place feels like its about to close any minute, with unfinished screed flooring and bare fluorescent lighting highlighting all those bargains. Worth stopping in for the odd browse, this seriously discount outlet still has a lot to learn about selling with style.

Walking along Nassau Street this weekend I stumbled upon this new store called Tiger only a short…read moredistance from Grafton street. I have never been in a Tiger store before but I was really surprised. They sell all kinds of little gadgets and styling office supplies and other random things. They pride themselves on low prices and nothing in the store being over 30 Euro. They had random iphone cases for only 3 Euro and lots of little unique random things. It reminds me of Ikea a little in that you walk in with no specific purchase in mind but walk out with tons of things. It is a nice store and setup well for browsing with a nice circular path leading you through the store and finally to the checkout lane. Staff are friendly and helpful too. I will be back.

My favourite things I've found here have been postcard sized blank jigsaw puzzles. They're blank so you can design them yourself. They make great little presents or fun ways to send messages to people. On another stationary note they also sell 3 greeting cards for a euro. Yes THREE cards for ONE euro. Mad. Some of the cards aren't that great but there are always at least 3 cool ones. Also they sometimes sell stroopwafflels in the food section. Win!

I hope to return someday and explore this Asian market even more.

The range of useful and not-so-useful items, from superglue to headphones and anything in between, makes you either want to run out or dig into the pockets to see how many bargains you can make. That's exactly what I hate about these kind of shops. I always end up buying some crap I don't need just because it's cheap. How can I not buy new kitchen utensils when they costs only € 2? Or a 3-Euro knitted ear-warmer? It's cold out there you know. Poundwise can be handy when looking for a casual present. Not to say that you should do birthday and Christmas shopping here, but for fun gifts for no particular occasion you'll have plenty of junk to choose from. Just remember, you get what you pay for.
