The plans for Lidl in Penicuik, Imrie Place etc.

Lidl was certainly busy today when I was in and anything that attacts people to Penicuik has to be a good thing. I imagine certain other supermarkets are not so happy as they have seemed rather quieter this week.
As for the compensation story, it seems to be another of the "Chinese whispers" things that go around the town. Someone told me they had heard that Primark were coming!!! which seems very unlikely since they are only going to open their first Edinburgh shop later this year.

Still not been in it, the offers in the leaflets look good though. Was in Somerfield today though and it was the busiest I have seen it in a long time.

There is a Lidl near where I work in Leith and I noticed that they were selling trolley jacks for £15. I didn't fancy having to carry one home in the bus, so last night I nipped along to the new Lidl and bought one.
