Yeah, go to Aldi for the cheap stuff, and Tesco for the branded stuff.

I'd doubt it, a few Spars have closed in the town (Hennesseys Rd and Yellow rd) would a Tesco Express do any better?

Then again, sometimes that doesn't seem to be the initial attraction for Tesco, more making sure another brand doesn't move in.

Be great for the elderly people living around Ballybricken, save them having to go as far as Supervalu for their few bits. Jaysus, Besco, that brings back memories!!

If people had any intelligence, they would avoid Tesco. Tesco is taking over the world. You cant turn in Waterford but you see a Tesco shop. How fresh is their produce. How far has it travelled. It is like shopping in a factory. There is more to life than buying cheap.

not when you don't have a whole lot of money. I sold my soul many years ago. I love tesco haha
