@ is the symbol or abbreviation for at/each. "He bought 12 eggs at $.09 each" could be written "he bought 12 eggs @ $.09."

I guess you could say:

Cheannaigh sé 12 uibhe ar $.09 an ceann.

Cheannaigh sé 12 uibhe @ $.09.

Thanks for the feedback , guys. Guess I was looking for something more exotic or colourful like my wife's term in Swedish.. snabel-a or elephant's trunk a . She likewise gave me the Norwegian term... alpha-kröll or alpha-curl. Here in Québec the common term in French is "a commercial" thereby reflecting somewhat Pádraig's answer to my query.
