As you will probably know, Dublin is a rather expensive city and by far the priciest one in Ireland, but we have done our homework to help you save-up a few euros when it comes to shopping.
To arrive to the cheapest areas of Dublin you will have to travel north; to Henry street, home to the cheapest department stores in Ireland called Penney´s. Maybe you are not familiar with this name yet, but outside of Ireland they are known as Primark, which probably rings a bell. As you know, it is a huge store with almost everything at very low cost prices. Another option along this same line is the department store Debenhams. You can usually find interesting discounts on certain items; now is your time to dive into the different articles to find your bargain.
