EASON’S Eason’s is the biggest newsagents in town but I don’t go there that often, mainly because of their unreasonably big difference in real terms between the sterling price and the euro price on UK magazines. But, being something of a guerrilla customer, I regularly call there this time of the year as they hold a sale on their travel books with twenty per cent off most. This time I picked up the DK Eyewitness Guide to the Dordogne, Bordeaux and Southwest Coast and it cost me € 15.44 instead of the cover price of € 19.30. The sterling price was £13.99; I would really have been annoyed had I paid € 19.30 for it! I did buy a magazine also, Ireland’s Food and Wine for January/February. Cost was € 3.99, same as the sterling cover price. Happy with that. Oh and by the way, the Patrick Street shop has a huge selection of newspapers, magazines, book and music and the lady that served me was absolutely brilliant as are most if not all the staff there.
