    Heard the same alright. Might be worth checking the planning website in the morning to see


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,533 ✭✭✭the keen edge


    Yeah they are supposedly.

    Also in a month or two an Evergreen healthfood shop will be opening up in the unit beside Tescos main entrance.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 723 ✭✭✭finlma


    They're working on the site at the moment but not sure what's going in there.

    Yes its being built


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 723 ✭✭✭finlma


    Almost finished. In the space of 5 years Oranmore will have gone from 1 supermarket (Supervalu) to 4 (Supervalu, Tesco, Lidl and Aldi)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,930 ✭✭✭✭TerrorFirmer


    It's opening this month, the building is pretty much completed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 183 ✭✭Sonderkommando


    Yes it's definitely aldi, looking forward to there ale selection, far better than lidl IMO.

    dont have a clue but going by the state of the country youd have a better chance of winning the lotto.

    they will probably have 4000 applications id say

    Any idea when Aldi in Oranmore is opening? I heard it was supposed to open in November but that never happened. They appear to be landscaping entrance at the moment so I assume it will be soon. Any one know anything more?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 239 ✭✭Stone


    Yo,

    I was just @ Tesco in Oranmore today and I did not see any signs of any Aldi there (perhaps I did not look well 'nuff) - it there really an Aldi being opened there and is it as close as I read with entrance landscaping etc.
    E.g where is this entrance etc. ??

    Cheers,
    Stone

    Yeah it's 95% per cent complete there will be access from near the castle/subway as well as existing tesco entrance

    Anybody know the actual date of opening. I think it was originally meant to be in November.

    Tesco may aswell shut their doors and keep them shut when Aldi opens..lidl might get hit too cos its not to far away from there..

    I think Lidl will take the biggest hit. I'm more likely to shop in Tesco when Aldi opens (and never shop in Lidl). I'll park outside Aldi and do my "main" shop at Aldi. Whatever branded stuff I can't get it Aldi, I'll nip into Tesco for it.

    and you,ll nip into tesco with an ALDI bag:D

    Think it will be another 3 or 4 weeks yet. Saw some flooring contractors go in this morning.

    Why, Tesco on Headford Road is opposite an ALDI and still trading?

    Other way around, Tesco bags are more durable.

    Been sending out emails to Aldi asking where to apply for the job and all they tell me is to look it up on their website but there's nothing there...
