    Anyone been? I passed it by a few weeks back before it opened. I thought it was another place like Lidl but Irish like Crunch.

    I have since learned that it is supposed to be more like Sams Club in the US, so a warehouse where you can buy huge containers of industrial sized stuff for cheap.

    The one in Mullingar I saw did not look big on the outside so has anyone been inside?

    Yeah I called in a couple of weeks back. It's branded goods at. . well . . nothing special prices. Like you say, there's plenty of bulk you can buy.

    I can't for the life of me remember what the product was, but there was something there that was .30c more expensive than tesco.

    Nothing special tbh - worth a look though, you might see something that catches your eye.

    They don't have giant tubs of Peanut butter and stuff like that do they?


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,269 ✭✭✭_feedback_


    They may well have. They had things like catering boxes of tea bags, sugar and butter sachets. Worth a wander around.

    Where is it in Mullingar ? I'm in Mullingar most Saturdays, sounds like somewhere I'd like to mooch around for the afternoon :)

    If you come from the Mullingar Park plaza hotel heading in to town on the old Dublin road you will see it on the right if I remember right.

    I was in there last week and made HUGE savings compared to my regular shop! I mean a lot of the stuff is branded goods at similiar or lower prices to the crap you get in lidl or aldi. I saw this week they had 2Ls of Coca cola for €1.00, Ive never seen it that cheap anywhere!

    own it do you......:P

    Yea. i think youd want to be doin a big family shop to save much. did pick up a bargain coat stand for 19 euro though. I guess its worth an odd look in for the odd ball stuff.
