    is that rumour still knocking about, first it was meant to be going to Blackpool then ballincollig, carrigaline, wilton, douglas, miliditon, and then mahon point....and its still hanging on to mahon point.
    well is suppose no big new shopping centers have opened recently.

    The last I'd heard, Owen O'Callaghan had bought the Bodega, and was looking to develop into a Hotel.

    i thought it was going into the new building being constructed across the road from where the bodega is now. i also heard its still open but when i stroll past most days its always closed does anyone know of this?

    Oh God! Just what we need.Another Penneys-esque clothes shop with hundreds of chavs,mothers with 40 children running around for bargains.The D4heads call TK Maxx 'the toilet'(hilarious) BTW i'm not dissing people who shop in penneys.I just find the huge annoying crowds...well.....annoying!

    my buddy is a manager in some clothes store in cork, he said it was definatly coming, maybe hes got insider knowledge or something, but he's certain of it, think i remember him mentioning something about mahon point.
    it doesn't really make sense that theres one in tralee and not in cork.

    im not really lookin for it, been to the one in dublin n in belfast. i just think its another shop like pennys lol

    I kind of fear that ultimately TK Maxx will have people looking/dressing even more boring than they already were. It's depressing.

    But they always have awesome random stuff like Red Dwarf miniatures in the Toy section.

    I'm so divided :/

    TK Maxx is horrible; wishing for one to come to Cork is like wishing for Herpes.
