Last time I looked in Marksies it was cheaper than €100, but that was in the middle of Debs season, so might not be as cheap now. I think the one I bought was £49 stg, and it's grand.

Mcg, I bought one last year for the New Lansdowne opening in Marks  and Sparks for about €100 - you can borrow it, but doubt it would fit you- you can try it out.

There is a new suit place opposite the Hairy Lemon, they were doing two suits for the price of one. And I think they also do a trade in with your old suit now. I've two wedding this year and need a new suit so might suss that place out as well.

No bothers.

About 100 for a tux I think, might have been a bit more

serious value in some of the traditionally more expensicve suit shops in town (dawson street) - they have a massive price mark up so they will haggle on the price. i like baumler suits myself, they have a shop on dawson street and have serious deals at the minute.
 
defo buy a black suit and buy a dress shirt, you'll use the suit again
