    Should I change banks??

    It's often worth talking to your local branch manager. I have found in the past that the branch can have more leeway than the contact centre, especially if you have a long history with the bank.

    Bling H20

    Try €150 for a bottle at the Waters of the World shop at Dublin airport. Everytime I pass through I can't believe that shop - a shop that just sells water. Surely water for a tap would be fresher that some bottle water that has travelled half way around the world incurring a large carbon foot...

    Save 1/3 on Hayfever plus Free Kit

    I was up in Asda last week and the generic version of Clarityn was available. On special 2 packs of 7 for £1. Alot cheaper than Clarityn here and the same ingredients. I usually stock up if I'm up north and also if I'm in the US where the generic versions are readily available as well. I...

    Holidays and recession

    There are still plenty of people who have only been affected by the budget measures on their pay packet and haven't taken a pay cut and are in fairly stable sectors . Also with interest rates down many people are in the same if not a better position so they are carrying on as normal. Everyone...

    Have people forgotton their income will be reduced significantly in May?

    Exactly when I chose a tracker I get a lot of people saying I was mad but I knew the risk I was taking and also stressed tested myself with a budget based on 1% higher repayments. I didn't however factor in the fact that I could lose my job as previously it wouldn't have taken too long to find...

    Have people forgotton their income will be reduced significantly in May?

    Well said DerKaiser - There are a lot of people who have stopped spending in panic mode almost and when you ask them why they can't really answer it. I think they are caught up in the media hype. I myself am being made redundant but had I not my disposable income had improved with mortgage...

    Have people given up on the economy and the Country

    It's great to see prespective (family is more important always) but at the moment it's hard even to get jobs working in McDonalds. I have years of retail experience and also thought at least I had something to fall back on if I lose my job but I can't even seem to get these jobs. Employers are...

    Prime Time - 31.03.09 (Unemployment)

    It's fairly bad out there in my experience. I have been looking for 2 months and still haven't secured an interview. My CV was prepared with the help of an outplacement service and has been checked by a friend in HR. I'm looking at all levels of work as I would rather be working at something...

    Leaving Cert Orals to suffer

    The year I did my leaving cert 2001 was the year that the teachers were striking. Missed out on a good lot of days - think it was a day a week for a few months. I know at the time it added a lot of stress to the leaving cert students.

    Pilot training.

    Most routes seem to be fairly expensive and it's not a great time to be an airline pilot. A friend of mine qualified in September and has so far been unable to get an interview anywhere and she is looking all over the world. Most of her class mates are in the same position. The class prior to...
