What a joke…the baggage is actually more expensive than the airline seat, I mean whats more important the baggage or you!!! No wonder they can nearly give away the seats for free…with prices like 7.50 sterling per kilo for
baggage????? I mean DAYLIGHT ROBBERY!!!!!! We are totally being ripped of and they are so sly…They give you options on you how much baggage your bringing charging 12.00 sterling per extra bag without stating how much they are actually going to charge you when your checking in your luggage at the airport…” but its in our terms and conditions” Yeah Yeah the small print the story of our lives come on for gods sake give us a break!!

Totally overcharging everywhere…
I was appalled with the flowers available for Mothers Day. Especially the big supermarkets eg. Superquinn  were charging outrageously for a bunch of flowers that were minimal and cheap looking. Even Lidl and Aldi have put up  their prices it didn’t take long! I was even in shock of the cost of a bunch of daffodils honestly everything is about making money in this country. Its very unfair putting people under pressure like that. Mothers Day is about appreciation, and love not making money of children who are trying to show their mothers what they mean to them. And yes my Mother is worth a million bunches of 50 euro flowers but id rather put it in her pocket than the pockets of the outrageously overcharging shops in Ireland!    

My children made me a bunch of flowers that ill have forever!flowers1.jpg
