Another new mall but no AMUSEMENT PARKS for families.
.
Anyhow, plz see the attachment for detailed info and pray that we do hear more news about NEW PARKS in Qatar rather than MALLS/HYPERMARKET.
on the definition of the words "quality" and "reputed"
AND their undertanding to those 2 words.
BTW. Many "quality" and "reputed" restaurants and cold stores, let aside supermarkets and hypermarkets, were closed by the municipality every now and zen :D
the spelling and grammer to my attention? Makes me sit and wonder who was on the re-write desk that day, that it wasn't spotted.
Don't you just love it when these shops talk about how many till will be in service? They might have 20 tills in service, but only 5 are working during peak hours...
"if you don't like the heat... get out of the kitchen... but stop trying to fan the flames before you leave... it will burn you on the a** as you go through the doorway...." ME
I used to go to Mega Mart, but found out that Lulu and FFC have the exact same products, for half the price. The big bags of Cheetos is for 28Qr in Mega Mart (imported) and the one made in the region is 8Qr.
MD - 2 of the guys look like they have other places they would rather be.
And how much 'quality' is lurking in the text of the accompanying article?
There will be 20 'reputed' gold groups "conspiring" in Quality Hypermarket. Good that we've been warned.
In fact the jewelry will be the "key attraction". So it won't be the food? Don't they know - man cannot live on gold alone.
There will also be "fresh meet" available on the ground floor. I always knew that hypermarkets were a good source of "trade", but never before have retailers boasted about it.
On the down side, there will only be one sort of "vegetable" for sale. Over time, they may extend their range to include multiple sorts of vegetables, if there is demand.
The three "gentlemen" in the attachment don't look like much 'quality' anyway. Their suits are not perfect, neither are their faces. They remind me of the car dealer back in my home town. Don't expect too much quality.
What is a 'hypermarket' anyway? If a supermarket is a dingy suburban corner store with 2 aisles and rotting vegetables, what are the requirements to be a 'hypermarket'?

a place to buy branded watches and mobile phones in Qatar!
I think any shop that has "Quality" in the title leaves alot to be desired!! Example - Quality shoes..are they???
I'm left wondering, is h(H?)ypermarket one word, or two?
If I was the guy being quoted, I'd be a bit upset that some journalist who never learnt shorthand couldn't acurately transcribe my quotes.
As much as I hate it when the local papers just print press releases, at least press releases are well written, not like this embarrassing drivel.
I could easily pull apart each and every sentence, but I haven't got the time.
Maybe later, if I'm feeling pedantic.
They used to be the Spinneys chain I believe, and they sell mostly 'western' products.........But at bloody expensive prices !

I think you have me confused with someone who gives a sh1t.

The American Hypermarkets like Walmart kept closing their eyes to the global market, then the French swallowed it (mostly Carrefour and Géant)..
I know the way to any item in Carrefour, in Qatar, UAE, France, China, ... They're all the same.
I used to go to Mega Mart, but found out that Lulu and FFC have the exact same products, for half the price. The big bags of Cheetos is for 28Qr in Mega Mart (imported) and the one made in the region is 8Qr.
Anyway, shopping in FFC is entertaining :)

Another shopping facility where SOME people are NOT allowed to enter and enjoy the great shopping experience. :(
I'm looking forward for WALMART to open its first mega store in Qatar
FFC = Family Food Centre
hurray another mallu hyper market :P
Oh horrah! Another 'hypermarket'.
I can barely contain my excitement.
*yawn*

Sorry, but what's FFC?
Whatever you vividly imagine, Ardently desire, Sincerely believe and Enthusiastically act upon, Must inevitably come to pass.
FFC is great.. Its like being at the Dodgems..
at LULU and FFC anymore. I felt as if I was in the middle of a stampede.
Its called catering to the masses...:o)
is French. That almost doesn't count :) and I love Megamart but it's so expensive. I just want another alternative.
deedee - enough already?? been to the Lulu and FFCs during weekends?? Need many more infact..
we are forced to shop during the weekdays. :)
______________________________________________
- Listen to Many...Speak to a Few -
Carrefour is western so are most of the products in Megamart?
But do miss the Big British supermarkets
-----------------
HE WHO DARES WINS
stole my comment. Why can't a Western chain open a store here. Tired of all the Indian ones (not to be racist, it's just that we have enough already!)
Oh Good! Another LuLu/Family food likey likey! How about a decent store like Tesco's or Waitrose instead of this rubbish!!
No I am not in favour of this.. Qatar is becoming like Dubai now.. What next?
-----------------
HE WHO DARES WINS
Gold, Groceries and Food under one roof ! That's Mrs Expat gone for the weekend :0)
Whatever historical they had, they are just now demolishing it [MUSHEIRIB area] and more will be demolished nearby that area in near future.
Qatar Govt. don't want to change their historical landscape... theu don't want to turn it from brown to green...
ur right yaar. We already have enough MALLS/HYPERMARKETS till now but nothing exciting for families,children and "hungry guys" like u lolzzzz
.
Plz somebody must tell the GOVT about this. URGENT CALL
I hope Qatar makes more number of Amusement parks rather then these Malls/ Hypermarket so tat i can sing and dance along the trees with my LOVE....:)
