Not a phrase used in Ireland, but it made me laugh.

What’s the best Irish saying that is basically “I’ll be back”/“see you later”

You slap your thighs while getting up from a chair and say 'Well...'

Alternatively, one can say 'Take care', which is my personal favourite.

Very popular in the Midwest US, too. Though it's often "Welp," instead of "Well"

My old boss, a really gruff and serious guy from New York, used to occasionally say "okely solely" and he couldn't figure out why I found it so funny
