Thurles – Understanding The Current Credit Crunch

Mary and her husband John were shopping in the new Ely’s Thurles Centra Supermarket, Slieve-na-mon Road, Thurles, Co.Tipperary.
John picks up a crate of canned Guinness and sticks it in the shopping trolley, being  pushed by his wife.

“What do you think you are doing? demands his wife Mary.

“Are you blind, can’t you see they’re on special offer, they’re only €10 for 24 large cans”, said John.

“Put them back, we can’t afford them”, said Mary in a somewhat  annoyed tone.
Several shopping aisles later Mary, his wife, picks up a €20 jar of face cream and places it in the shopping trolley.

“What do you think you’re doing” said John.
“It’s my normal face cream and it helps to make me to look more beautiful”, says Mary confidently.

Well said John sarcastically “So do 24 cans of Guinness and they are only half the price.”
