6 shops, checked one by one. 4 of them sell Argentine, Uruguayan or Paraguayan yerba; 2 turned out to sell only own-label "mate tea" and are listed here so you do not waste a trip. Shipping terms differ enormously, so the cheapest shelf price is rarely the cheapest order.
Dublin-run Argentinian grocery with the widest catalogue in the country — 21 yerba brands and 80+ SKUs, and the only shop carrying both 500g and 1kg of almost every brand. Flat, round shelf prices.

Listed, but no Argentine yerba
These two come up constantly in searches for yerba mate in Ireland. Both were checked in full: neither carries a single Argentine, Uruguayan or Paraguayan brand, so neither appears in the price table. They are still worth knowing about — Down to Earth is the cheapest place in Dublin city centre to walk out with a bombilla.
