It's very hard to criticise a place that's great value with mostly quality food. That said I only…read morebuy a few items here - for fresh I go for fillet steak, pork fillet, chicken breast and pork mince (5% fat). So all meat is from Irish farms and I believe the quality of Irish meat is always excellent. The fillet steak is 32 day dry aged. Most steak in the USA is wet aged which is cheaper and produces an inferior product. For frozen it's their Greenland cold water prawns. They are again wonderful quality and taste. The last day I was there they were selling snow peas at 49 cents a bag and 500gm of red grapes at €1.29. Wonderful value for great produce and they often have real deals on fresh veg. So I bought a half dozen of each. The new normal is that you may have to stand outside a while as numbers are now limited. This is ok in an Irish summer (which this year is lousy). They provide hand sanitizer on entry. The only other downside is that they don't have many check out staff so again you can queue there a while too but it's the rub of the green here as the prices are so competitive.

When we heard here of the prevalence of the "Chip and PIN" system here, we were super worried and braved awful ATM fees to withdraw cash down the way. Per Chase/British Airways: "Further, customers in the United States traveling outside the U.S. are not required to obtain a PIN. Merchants in Europe (or other countries) are required to: - Accept all cards with magnetic stripe - Honor all cards bearing the Visa/ MasterCard brand mark if they accept MasterCard - Accept magnetic stripe as well as chip cards, even in markets that are evolving to 100% chip card local issuance You should urge the merchant to insert the card into the terminal and follow the prompts. The terminal will automatically request a signature. If the merchant insists on not accepting the card, please call us at the number listed on the back of your card, to report the merchant name and address. " The folks at the store were very nice and may have been scared by various tactics used at the outset of Chip-and-PIN stuff (see the Wikipedia article) into refusing our card, but apparently it's a legal no-no, and we'd like to prevent other visitors from having to go through the rigamarole that we did.

As usual, the price marked on the shelf is not the…read moreprice when scanned so I took a photo of the shelf and when using the self checkout I showed it to the woman at the tills. She wouldn't look at my photo, instead she asked me to show her the items that were incorrect. I pointed to them (even though they were very visible in the trolley) She then asked me what aisle they were on, I said I took a photo, this was ignored and she said a price check would have to be done. Off she went, 10mins later she returned and said she wasn't adjusting the price as the reduction had expired?! I, as a customer is supposed to know this how? I told her that was ridiculous as the shelf was clearly marked as a rollback price but she was very adamant with me that she was not going to adjust the price, it had expired and she was unable to override it. Well I know for a fact this is nonsense as I purchase these products on a regular basis and they have never been marked down correctly. Strangely the staff during the day just say "Oh those still are not scanning properly, I will adjust them" This member of staff was not obliging whatsoever, she claimed management would not allow this and the best she can do is reduce one of the items, rest would be charged at the higher price! Considering they are still 50p more expensive each than in Tescos, I told her that I wasn't accepting the reduction in just one so she lifted the items from my trolley and confiscated them! Wow! Unbelievably poor customer service! The joke was her outfit said 'Happy to help' Asda take these people off your customer facing roles! Very, very off putting!

You can get your parking ticket stamped in-store which allows you to park free if doing a grocery shop. They also sell clothes and a full range of 'free from' items if you want dairy or gluten free food. I highly recommend the awesome in store made pizzas, breads and pastries. At Christmas and New Year Sainsbury's have a special range of fabulous food you can order and collect in store, I would especially recommend the: *Three nut roast with cranberry sauce *Butternut & mushroom en croute *Limoncello buche de Noel If you want indulgent, treat foods try Sainsbury's 'Taste The Difference' range. This blows every other supermarkets 'luxury' items clean out of the water. Definitely the best you'll get, bar none.

Yes there are groceries and produces here, but there's also clothes, electronics, household items, books, etc. It's a big store and I've always been able to find what I'm looking for here. Prices at Tesco are pretty decent from what I've seen. Not quite as low as a Lidl or Aldi, but not as high as a Dunnes or Marks & Spencer. Since Lidl and Aldi has a lower selection it's nice to come to Tesco and do one stop shopping here. The Tesco is located on the upper floor of the shopping centre, but they have inclined flat escalators for shopping carts. There's a bathroom outside the Tesco on the upper floor that is clean and well maintained. Bus stops are located right outside, but for those with a car there is a car park here as well.

I normally shop at Aldi Laytown which us superb with lovely staff. Santry Aldi is a different story. Staff don't seem to want to open a full checkout even for trollies and keep trying to get oeople to the self-service scanners. I keep reminding them : I don't work here, please open a till. When queues were building up today, having declined to self-scan my own trollyload, reluctantly a call was made for staff to open another till and the staff directed the person behind me over, fortunately, he had manners and recognised that I should have been next and allowed me go ahead. All fine, my shopping was checked out but when it came to pay on the card reader I was denied the opportunity to give my rating of my shopping experience. The staff member turned the screen towards himself and gave himself his own review! Aldi need to be aware that their customer satisfaction rates are being skewed by staff giving themselves a good rating instead of allowing customers to honestly rate the shopping experience and give valuable feedback which contributes to improved service in the future.
