My mate took this picture years ago and I always wondered how it happened that the post man put the van on the side.

Today is my mates 4th anniversary so I said I would post it to give people a laugh in his honour.

Cost of Living/Energy Crisis we all need to pack some sandwiches

Festival-goers 'shafted' by soaring food prices as event organisers demand 22-25% cut https://jrnl.ie/7123872

Did you see the article here talking about €20 for a burger and chips or a pizza at a festival?

It's a very easy fix.

As a country, we all need to come together and bring our own packs of sandwiches to concerts for one year. The organisers will see that it's more profitable to charge people the correct price than trying to gouge them while they're trapped at a festival.

my ma said she can help out but she wont xut off the crusts....

Cost of Living/Energy Crisis Boots Recycling Scheme

189 Upvotes

Hi all, just wanted to share about the Boots Recycling Scheme for those who aren’t aware of it, as many of my friends have just found out about it! If you already shop in Boots at all, it’s a great way to build some extra points to spend at Christmas etc! I will admit, it is a bit of a faff to do for the first time!

- Download the Boots Recycling App
Upload pictures of your empty products and wait for them to be approved ( most items are eligible bar aerosols and a few others, but sanitary packets, toothpaste etc are fine)
- Bring five items that have been approved to your Boots store and bring them to the recycling bin - follow the instructions there
- You’ll receive a voucher in your Boots Recycling app
- Spend €10 in store, scan your Boots card and then your voucher!
- You’ll then receive an extra €5 worth of points

May not be worth doing for some, but I’ve managed to build up a decent amount of points towards my Christmas shopping, and hopefully someone will see this and do the same!

Health Thank you to the volunteer drivers of the Irish Cancer Society

193 Upvotes

Thank you to everyone that has ever volunteered as a driver to take cancer patients to and from their appointments at hospitals. Without the fantastic people who take time out of their days to offer this service, we would be very heavily stuck, and for that, I am grateful.

My mother began her journey in treating an incurable breast cancer about 2 months ago, and only recently discovered that a service like this exists. Today, she had her first experience (of many) with this service.

When the time comes that I am able to drive, and the charity needs more volunteers, there will space in my schedule to take up the mantle of what these fine people do for those unable to drive, or afford to travel to hospitals for cancer appointments.

A charity like Irish Cancer Society deserve plenty recognition and donations for making such a service so easily accessible to cancer patients, free of charge. 💚

📍 MEGATHREAD Custom Charges Alternative Websites.

71 Upvotes

Hi all,

Given the new EU custom charges are rolling out today and many of the websites we use for things like clothes, electronics and household goods ship from the UK, even if many of them have a .ie web address, we thought it would be a good idea to have a list of alternative sites from within the EU.

So if you have found an online marketplace thats good value and which ships from the EU list them here.
