Incredible Toy Bargains Available If You Have Time To Shop Around.


While out shopping for a present for my granddaughter today, I visited Home Savers, (formerly Johnston’s Supermarket/McKevitt’s Costcutter), situated at No 21 Liberty Square Thurles, before taking a few steps to Tesco Supermarket, situated 12 doors further east at No 33 Liberty Square, Thurles.

Note: See both price tags on bottom left hand side of similar toys, circled in red.

Both shops can have great value deals on toys. However, while visiting both retail outlets, I spotted two similar sized “Barbie Doll” toys.
Incredibly, there was almost a €40.00 difference in price for both toys.

At Home Savers the Barbie Bakery Set, with two dolls and multiple kitchen accessories was €22.50.
In Tesco the similar sized Barbie Doll Doctor Set, with just one doll and again multiple doctor accessories was a whopping €60.00.

Proof, if proof was ever required, that it truly does pay to shop around, and that great bargains can be located by savvy shoppers.

Have you, the consumer, spotted any other great bargains to be found locally in Thurles?
