So now there is a chill in the air with a bag of coal gone from €16 a bag to €33 we thought now might be a good time to launch our new Tuesday promo - Bring yer coat and get 20% off your food bill.The price of coal is a frequent topic of discussion at the moment - earlier this month, Micheál Hurley of Hurley’s Fuel Centre in Clonakilty told the Irish Times of fuel prices tripling in the space of a year:
This time last year I was buying coal from Coyles up in Buncranna — we were buying it off of them for €16.50. And the price today is €45.50 a bag, so that’s three times the price. We used to get three months’ credit from the coal guys, but now it has to be paid for on the day.
