Irish Consumer Links – Help Please!
The past 6 – 9 months (no, not 5 years, 9 months) have seen a big increase in the number of Irish consumer related websites.
These sites are focusing on many disparate areas of Irish consumer related activities such as eating out, drinking, shopping online, grocery shopping, banking, insurance, and so on.
I’m aware of many of the sites out there already, but I’d like your help in putting together as complete a listing as possible of these sites.
My aim is to put together an “Irish Consumer Links” page that would be a comprehensive resource for Irish consumers of everything that can possibly help in these recessionary times.
So, if you know of a consumer related website offering tips, advice, bargains, special offers and so on to Irish consumers, please post a comment below with a link. Or, if you have a consumer related website that you think should be included in this listing, post a comment also.
I’ll begin in the next few hours and post the listing of sites that I’m aware of. Your assistance will be much appreciated.

I look forward to seeing the listing you manage to put together. There seem like loads of sites spring up at the moment.
Oh, plus, having lived in the uk for a couple of years, I’m also quite interested in the development of price comparison sites here in ireland.
There’s still some way to go, but here’s a few i’m keeping my eye on

Now that we have electricity competition as well, we might get that added to some of these sites soon as well.

@declanh – many thanks for those Declan. I’ll add them to the listing.
@roisin – not sure what the problem is there. Others, including myself, have been able to upload these.
If you want, e-mail me through the contact page and I’ll upload them to the page for you.
Here is one i found on Cheapeats the other day:
