Euro 2

Places like this are some great for stationary supplies and help me cut down some business cost.
I got thirteen clip folders at € 2 a pop — not too shabby!

This is where I get my glowstix. I am a sucker for something that glows on a night out and I honestly believe «You can’t have a party without glowstix”*. They just make everyone loosen up a bit and have some fun. «Nothin like a bita neon!”*
In general you can pick up both trinkets and useful stuff here.
I have always been afraid to buy food in any «Pound shop», as they used to be called, but there are sweets in packets that are well in date and much cheaper than a lot of stores.
The greetings cards here are all € 2 too and they often have special deals and the cards are great quality.
Another benefit of the €uro 2 shop is that, seasonally, like St. Patrick’s Day, Easter and Christmas, they go all out and stock some major tacky stuff at cheap prices for your parties. Great for Hen and Stag nights too.

i was here as a student and this place saved me a couple of time.
so I was not, and was never able to get used to Irish weather (aka if its sunny in the morning, it rains later. if it rains in the morning, its sunny later… or it rains all day). And I would always forget my umbrella because it’s freaking SUMMER, not some typhoon weather wtf!
Anyways I would run over to this place and grab an umbrella for 2 euro. And some gummy bears haha…

You know the saying ‘you get what you pay for’? Well a truer statement couldn’t be uttered when it comes to this little gem. If you like crap things that break, fall apart or generally do not serve the purpose they were intended for in the SLIGHTEST, then this place is for you.
€ 2 for everything. Bargain or wha??? Now don’t get confused — it doesn’t mean every individual thing is € 2. You could, perhaps, get five chocolate bars for € 2. Or two bottles of pepsi for € 2. Or 15 crap mini bouncey balls for € 2. You get the picture.
I think it’d be really funny if they insisted that you pay for stuff with € 2 coins only. Imagine that? I’m pretty sure the € 2 store would soon have all the € 2 coins in Dublin. There would be a € 2 SHORTAGE! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooo

So guess what this place does?? Anyone? Yes its what’s used to be know in pre-​Euro Ireland as ‘de pound shop’ and its the business too.
While we might have scoffed at even admitting to knowing where a Euro 2 shop was a couple of years ago, they’re having the last laugh as one of the few business doing well at the moment. Great for a bargain and also does a good range of household stuff.
Head on down to scenic Moore street in Dublin 1, worth a look in itself, and check out Euro 2. As you might have gathered everything here in indeed 2 yo yo’s. What a great idea!
I like the way its not just useless crap as well, although there is still plenty of that, and now does lots of stuff you might actually need. As well as cards, toiletries, your own body weight in chocolate and sweets Euro 2 is always well stocked come Christmas, Halloween and Easter too.
