There’s no doubt about it, this is a difficult time for everyone. But if you do find you’ve a little bit extra to spend, why not treat yourself to something small while supporting an Irish business

Maybe you’re still working, but from home. Perhaps you’re working harder than ever on the frontline to keep the rest of us safe (thank you). Or perhaps you’ve received a refund for that festival, gig or event that was supposed to be happening this summer but is now, sadly, cancelled (devastating, we feel you). Whatever the reason may be, if you happen to find yourself with a few extra bob to spend, may we suggest a little self love with a gift for yourself? We’ve gathered up some fantastic Irish businesses below where we know your few euro will go a long way to supporting the people behind them.

“In 2008, when the economy last took a hit, accessories and lipstick were the biggest selling items – a little pick-me-up without breaking the bank,” says Maeve Barry, owner of accessories label Blonde the Store. “In the last few weeks – especially after payday last week – I saw a big spike in sales. I think there are probably many reasons for it – people wanting to treat themselves without spending a fortune, getting that retail hit without a big commitment.”
