I'm sure the builders of Slade Castle in Saggart had very grand plans for this huge development. As…read moreit is today, dozens of apartments stand unsold, windows dark and eerily quiet. In the grand plans sold by planners, the estate would be served by a row of amenities, anchored by a Dunnes Grocery Store. These days, it seems Dunnes is the only business open in the tiny shopping park. As a stand-alone facility the shop is excellent. The aisles are clean and navigable, and though the fresh vege section is woefully under represented, there's plenty to choose from on the pre-packaged shelves (as well as a wine and spirits area around the back). The prices are competitive and there's always a few items on sale, but try to get your shopping done in the daytime as it's just too quiet here at night.

Very handy to have this Dunnes across the road from me. The bigger one is in Citywest which has…read moreeverything but this covers you for most things.

We also had some lunch at their birdcage cafe on the upper level. Pretty good food choices in their cafe. Will definitely come here again. Mac & Cheese Update: Very very bland, no seasoning and barely any cheese. There's is a crispy coating on top that was interesting and that reminded me of a type of panko bread crumbs. Overall though, it's not your typical Mac and cheese if that's what you're looking for.

Customer service desk (and a till that allows up to 5 items to be bought, no weights, tho) is by the entrance and on the other side from the checkouts. I find this bit confusing, but it's alright.

Anyhow, there is one thing which I really don't like - it is a very strong unpleasant smell of the fish counter. I don't know why, but it's really smells bad. Fresh fish NEVER should smell like this. And now with the dessert fridge located just besides the smelly counter I just don't care how good that cheesecake is, I won't go there.

Upon googling this on my ever useful smartphone we discovered that this was now the largest Tesco in Ireland. So on the way back to Dublin, we exited at junction 9, took the roundabout exit for Sallins and had a look. We needed to do a foodshop anyway. It is pretty impressive, lots of everything and as big as they say it is. It's also the only place where you can setup billed Tesco mobile phone accounts, according to their sales guy anyway. There are also a few other shops in the same complex like Argos, Vodafone, Boots and The Butchers Block. I can't really add much more than that, it's a Tesco. People know what to expect. Useful for when we are passing again.

It's the biggest Aldi I've seen, which is probably because I've stuck with city-centre shops up til…read morenow. Wow! Very briefly, for those who are new to the ethos of Aldi. It's no-frills shopping: items are placed on shelves in the same cardboard boxes they were shipped in. There's no music and very little in the way of helping customers out. In exchange, prices are noticeably lower than anything you'd find in another comparably-sized store. They have almost everything- food of all types is covered, a big frozen section, cleaning products, a bit of pet food, health and beauty, and other bargains are taken care of twice weekly with the Special Buys. Cash or laser card are the only payments accepted. Given Tallaght's reputation, I found this Aldi really civilized, but I could see evidence of not-so-nice customers - broken pieces, smashed chocolate Santas, cracked-into six-packs. Still, I was happy to see some special offers from many weeks ago still available. All in all I had a pleasant experience, though I did feel a little bit watched over by the security officer. Was that because he suspected me, or because he wanted to make sure my armful of groceries wouldn't topple?

We told them what we were looking for and they pointed us to Lidl straight away. We had a bit of a road trip planned over the course of the week and needed to stock up on snacks and breakfast items. Their store brand almonds were only $1.50 - that's less than you can find them anywhere at home. We were able to get fresh fruit and veggies along with our dried goods and a few freezer items all for under $30. That would have cost twice that at home for the same type of stuff. While this store was small it had what we needed in an easy to find layout.

Two things that I really liked as a tourist were their ATM (fees on a ATM are cheaper than waiting in line and paying to exchange your money from one currency to another in my experience) and the Leapfrog bus pass. Which, for a reasonable 25 euro, can get you a unlimited few days of getting around town and is a lot cheaper than parking or taking a taxi. If you are in the area and looking for a convenience store and new to the country, just look for the pine tree logo and "Spar" name.
