theres a little shop by the two sisters pub in terenure and its similar to a centra. they always point out the best value to you for their special offers.
In the restaurant where I work, there’s a deal on where if you buy a burger, you can make it a meal with chips and a LARGE drink for an additional €4. If a customer instead gets chips and a REGULAR drink (which isn’t the meal deal), it costs an additional €6. So if they got a large drink, they’d get more drink and save €2. Whenever I try to point this out, the customers snap at me and tell me no they don’t want it and then mumble on about stupid waitresses trying to up-sell everything, and some of them get very rude. It’s very upsetting, so for the most part, I don’t say it any more for fear of getting my head bitten off. Sad, but true.

I just love when that happens…I used to work in a shop and did this whenever I could… still waiting for the good karma to come back my way…
