Town lends support to Joe Duffy’s Fiver Friday

IF YOU plan on taking full advantage of Liveline’s Fiver Friday, you might want to take a visit to Clones.

The Co Monaghan town has some 17 businesses taking part in Joe Duffy’s event this Friday, with breakfast, dinner, haircuts and sport socks selling for €5 each.

In Dublin, one children’s clothing boutique is offering three Dolce & Gabbana outfits for the same price.

A spokesperson for the show said the response to this year’s event has been phenomenal, with offers from all over the country.

To meet demand and spread the word, Liveline producers are placing Fiver Friday offers on their website, broken down county-by-county.

Broadcaster Joe Duffy famously set up Fiver Friday during the height of the recession – and brought it back this week to help Irish businesses recover from the Beast from the East.
