Woman (22) convicted of shoplifting spree ‘looks like she couldn't care less'
'You must pay before you leave a shop. It's a simple concept,' the judge said. A 22-year-old woman who pleaded guilty to shoplifting offences has received a suspended sentence. Sharon McDonagh, with an address at the time at Cluskey's Accommodation Centre, Carrick Road, Dundalk, was sentenced to six months, suspended for two years, on one of the theft charges. Evidence was heard that two females entered a Centra in Dundalk and took three cans of Red Bull and a hairbrush, total value €10.95. The defendant was among three women who went into a Centra shop in Drogheda and removed groceries worth €149, while she was with a male and two other women who stole property valued €675 at TK Maxx in Drogheda. In this instance, €450-worth was recovered. All of the offending occurred last September. There were previous convictions, including for theft. Judge Nicola Andrews remarked that community service orders don't seem to have had an effect. Solicitor Paula Tiernan said that Ms McDonagh had a troubled family background. She had been homeless for a time before her mother secured accommodation for the family. She had engaged with services to deal with anger management.

The suspended sentence was marked on the TK Maxx charge with the others taken into consideration. Looking at Ms McDonagh, Judge Andrews remarked: 'You're kind of sick and tired hanging around here. I get all that. 'Your solicitor will explain the reality to you.' The judge continued that 'it looks like she couldn't care less'.

Abigail Wilson, Senior Digital Writer Published: Invalid Date, BARGAIN hunters are racing to get to their nearest TK Maxx store, desperate to nab new solar lights that have recently hit shelves. Solar lights have been all the rage over the last few months, with shoppers eagerly flocking to Asda, B&M and Home Bargains to stock up in time for summer. 3 3 3 But now, TK Maxx has cashed in on the incredibly popular trend - and have even released their very own version of the viral hot air balloon lights that sent shoppers wild just days ago. One savvy shopper was recently left gobsmacked when browsing the aisles in her local TK Maxx, when she spotted the brand new affordable finds. Eager to alert others to the purse-friendly products, Catherine Jacinto Dela Cruz took to social media to give a close-up look at the chain's new products, which start from just £3.99. Posting on BARGAIN LOVERS Poundland, Home Bargains, B&M, Primark, The Range & More, a public Facebook group with 835,300 members, Catherine uploaded a picture of the large selection of solar lights and simply penned: 'Solar powered lights at TK Maxx.' Not only can shoppers now get their hands on a pack of 10 Glowworm LED Metal Diamond String Lights for just £3.99, but there's even a Colour Changing LED Solar Crackle Ball on the shelves too. If you really want to add style to your outside space, shoppers are sure to be stunned by the solar powered Spiralight, which is priced at just £7.99 and if you ask us, is the perfect garden feature for balmy nights. As well as this, there's also a pack of 100 Firefly String Lights, that are bound to brighten up your space and leave your guests (and eagle-eyed neighbours) impressed. But that's not all, as there's even a pack of four Fairy Mushroom Stake Lights, that will turn your garden into a lush oasis in a matter of seconds.

Beautiful garden pieces in Home Bargains that'll transform your outdoor haven There's also the Eureka Orbs, that are brilliant for those looking to ensure your space feels luxe. And if you thought that was it, prepare to be open-mouthed when you see the SkyRunner String Lights. Not only do they look strikingly similar to the hot air balloon solar lights that sent many wild recently, but they have also been hailed as 'perfect for adding a burst of colour' to your home or garden. How Does TK Maxx Flog Designer for Cheap? TK Maxx follows an off-price business model to get designer products for cheap It buys merchandise from various brands and designers at a discount and then sells it to customers at lower prices than traditional retail stores The selection at its outlets often includes overstocked items, last season's styles and goods from cancelled orders. The Gold Label is a premium collection of designer and luxury products offered by TK Maxx. If you love designer clothes, this is the tag you want to look out for on pieces. The hot air balloon string lights are currently available to buy from B&Q for £18.99, but those on a budget will be pleased to know that they are part of TK Maxx's £12.99 and under range. They are said to provide "decor by day" and "light by night" and are spot on for those looking to create a "unique statement". Not only does the "intelligent technology" ensure the lights automatically switch on at dusk and then off at dawn, but they can be hung from trees or fences for the ultimate, magical effect. But you'll need to move fast if you want to get your hands on these purse-friendly buys, as like everything in TK Maxx, they will be available while stocks last and are sure to sell out fast.
