where would be best place/shop to get a Nintendo Wii?
I'd say most NI shop staff, particularly supermarket staff couldn't care less about 'enticing you back' tbh.
I do the bulk of my grocery shopping in the Newry branch of Sainsbury's, and find that many of the prices are considerably lower than they are here
I know - I have family in the UK who tell me that Sainsbury's is the most expensive of all the supermarket chains, so there ya go!
Beers - very little difference (sizes are smaller up north)
Nah, that honour goes to Waitrose (which stocks some fantastic food by the by) but I can't think of any Waitrose stores in the North.
Here is a savage example of prices in the RoI versus prices in NI. I couldn't believe it.
I am buying glass mosaic tiles. They are made by a UK company, Original Style, see this link:

The price in Tuam for a sheet = 30 euro.
The price in Fermanagh for the same sheet = under 8 euro.
The exact same product. Unreal.
Just for the sake of clarification, was it a regular-price item in Fermanagh, or a "loss-leader" or discounted "sale item". Were the other tiles in the shop similarly discounted?
I was in the tile shop in Tuam, saw the glass mosaic tiles, pay 30 euro for a sample sheet. The price is 30 euro a sheet.
I rang the shop in Fivemiletown, they quoted me 4.55 stg + VAT over the phone. No mention of offers, sale, discounts, etc.
That's 5.35 stg incl. VAT, or about 6.90 euro a sheet.
