Where to buy itunes gift card on journey to Donegal?

I am going to Co Donegal next week and want to get an itunes gift card to give to somebody as a birthday present. The only way I can see to do this from the UK is to buy one from the Apple Ireland store but they deliver direct to the recipient and I really want to hand it over in person.

I will be driving the Larne-Derry-Letterkenny-Glenties route. Does anybody know if there is somewhere on route I would be able to buy one, or (long shot) do they sell them on the ferry?

    You could also try Argos in Derry - it's outside the city centre & has easy parking. There are also a few places to eat if you need a break, Starbucks McDonalds, Subway & a more traditional cafe inside Homebase

    Will try Argos in Letterkenny, as I would imagine it will have to be Euro. Haven't been through there for some years and unsure which shops were in the retail park, but I think Letterkenny is my best bet to pick one up.
    Many thanks for replies.

    If you have to buy them in ROI there is also a tescos in Letterkenny that might have them. Its at the shopping centre at the top of the port road on the way into letterkenny.

    If the NI ones work there's also a tescos on the way into derry at the lisnagelvin shopping centre (at the roundabout beside the altnagelvin hospital). (if you take the first exit off the roundabout you can park at the TK Maxx store and go under the subway to the tescos - there's also toilets in TK Maxx if you need them.):)

    Thanks mojopolo, I am almost sure it needs to be in euro so will scout around Letterkenny, I am sure Tesco or Argos will have them. Thanks everybody for the food and toilet break tips too, much appreciated. :beer:
