School uniforms 

Aldi’s back-to-school uniform bundle

Despite the start of the summer holidays, it’s time to start thinking about back-to-school. A few retailers are offering school uniforms at lower prices, helping parents save some money while kitting out kids. Aldi’s back-to-school uniform bundle is returning and the retailer is freezing the price to offer the same deal as it did in 2022. It contains two polo shirts, one sweatshirt and a choice of trousers or skirt, all for just €6 and available in a choice of colours and sizes 4 -12 years.

Sómas scents

If you’re looking for a new scent in your home, Sómas has launched its summer sale with some fragrant offers included. The Spring Blossom candle is reduced from €35 to €25 while the Irish Moss scent, a beautiful blend of masculine and feminine notes to evoke nostalgic memories of moments by the Atlantic shore, is now €25, formerly €33. Some of their range of fashion items are also reduced, including the Freya taupe cloud bag (now €130) and a half-price dark denim crop jacket (now €40). See somasstudio.com for more.
