Everyone
loves a bargain!
And traveling around Ireland can be a bargain-seeker's joy, if you know where to look.
Many bargains are just common
sense:
- Travel in the off-peak fall/spring months (October - April)
- Book advance-purchase promotional airfares online
- Ask for inclusive weekend or midweek packages at hotels (2 or 3 nights at one place) - search for "special offers" or last-minute deals available only online
- Stay in Bed & Breakfasts family town homes and farmhouses
- Choose self-catering accommodations and cook your own meals
- Request restaurant value menus and "early bird" dining specials (usually available between 6 and 7 p.m.); for lunch, get take-away (i.e. take-out) items at supermarkets, delis or farmers markets.
- Inquire about "senior" discounts, 2-for-1 admissions, and other discounts
- If using a credit card, always ask to have your purchase charged in euros, not dollars (to avoid stores' high exchange rates)
