This increase in premium happened to me earlier this year and when I rang the insurance company I was just told that their rates had gone up. I did some research online and got quotes from other companies. When I rang my existing insurance company back and mentioned these cheaper quotes, they...

Hi, I ordered a new car to the value of €40,000 from a well known Dublin dealership in mid January. I paid a €2,000 deposit at the time. The car arrived yesterday, only to discover the salesman had ordered it in the wrong colour - silver instead of blue! Basically, he apologised for his...

Hi, I have to attend a course in Blackrock for the next 3 day and parking is not provided. Can anyone let me know the situation regarding parking in the village (e.g. on street parking, car parks, etc)? Thanks, Polo.

I have a Black and Decker Mouse which I have used for sanding doors. It is very easy to use and comes with a number of attachments for tricky bits like right up against the skirting. It was only about €40 in B&Q.

Aha - I am not alone ! I spent hours messing with the settings on my PC as UTV went down at the same time as my laptop battery died so I assumed this had caused something to go wrong :o I guess I will have to try it again when I go home tonight and hope I didn't alter any important settings...

Hi, I was wondering if anyone had done this 14 week evening diploma with the Dublin Business School ? It costs €1145 so I am interested to hear if anyone found it worthwhile. Thanks.

Re: 02.ie €0.01 DVD rentals offer You are doing well to turn around 2 a week. I find it difficult to turn around more than 1 a week even when I return the dvd the following day. And I have noticed Screenclick getting slower as the offer goes on.

My shower tray had the sticky backing from a sticker on it. I tried loads of products on it with no luck. Did a search on the web and found WD40 recommended. Tried this and the sticker came away very cleanly.

I saw the Magic Bullet for sale in EuroSpar in Lucan recently. €29.99

I don't think you can view the actual sofas before you buy them from Argos. I do know they have fabric swatches in the stores. A friend bought a tub chair from Argos and it turned out to be really uncomfortable. There was no trouble with returning it to Argos after about 2 weeks.

I didn't think you could sell on Amazon if you were based in Ireland ?

I think I saw that Halfords in Liffey Valley fit car bulbs for about an extra €5 when you buy the bulbs there.

Re: Which is better While B&Q may have larger stores, it is maddening to find so many of their shelves empty. The staff seem to have no idea when restocks will be arriving in. I find that Atlantic is cheaper than B&Q - and Atlantic has improved in recent months (particularly stores near a B&Q).

Is there some special reason you would choose either of these 2 months ?

Yet again the O2 webtext is down !

Hi Richie, There are a lot of e-Bay books out there that explain all about sourcing goods, drop shipping, etc. Take a look at How to Buy, Sell, and Profit on eBay: Kick-Start Your Home-Based Business in Just Thirty Days by Adam Ginsberg. It's a very easy read (even if he is a little too...

Re: Driving lessons Nervous Mam ! Just don't get the instructor in Colliers who peels oranges during the lesson ! Might be a bit offputting for a nervous learner :D

Hi Blue, Was in Tenerife a few years ago and the weather was very cloudy. Everyone in the resort was giving out about it. We hired a car and drove up the mountains each day to get above the clouds. It was very sunny and very hot above the clouds. Got a lot of jealous looks when we would return...

Re: Driving lessons Nervous Mam ! I learnt to drive (a number of years ago) with Airport Driving School. They do pick-ups in D5. Recommended them at the time to a nervous driving friend and she was very pleased with them.
