Simnon Clutched December 21, 2009 Share December 21, 2009 The mall is call TESCO and it is a hypermart similar to GIANT It is before JUSCO and parking is free over this mall. You can park there and walk over to JUSCO within 5 to 10 minutes There is a few restaurants, (viet, japanese,etc ), a food court, a cd/dvd shop, thai massage, hairdressing, two bookshops ( not popular hoh ), etc Not many branded goods shop compared to JUSCO. Number of shops over here is smaller in number than JUSCO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dafansu Turbocharged December 21, 2009 Share December 21, 2009 any idea if ikea will be opening a branch here. I saw an advert previously, but seems like there's no new construction here Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darryn Turbocharged December 21, 2009 Share December 21, 2009 The place to go is Tesco Extra - just carry on down the highway towards Giant Plentong, then when exit left towards Giant Plentong turn right under the bridge - tesco extra rocks. Buy things in bulk cheap cheap one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw an advert previously, but seems like there's no new construction here Yes there will be an Ikea opening there in late 2011. Most probably the construction will start early next year. The building will be right beside Jusco TC and adjacent to TC residences. Another new place to shop...very interested to get a unit there at TC residences... Seems that there's a monorail system to be in place too to connect it to Johor CBD area....wow... http://wikimapia.org/7467981/IKEA Edited December 21, 2009 by Berncsp76 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the NTUC for the Boleh Land, while Jusco is more "Cold Storage" pricing... FYI Tesco BUkit Indah opening on 31 Jan 2010...official is 04/03/2010... I love Tesco!!

I tink bukit indah really up and coming area - I see it getting lots of new places. We do shopping at either tesco extra or giant, never at jusco - too expensive. But during sales times jusco is great - as is parkson, on Sunday were there and bought polo tees - 70% discount, price after discount around 30RM. As I not so fashionable I just wait for the sales for all my clothes I only buy if minimum 50% discount...... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kb27 Supersonic December 22, 2009 Share December 22, 2009 I also tend to shop at Tesco Xtra at Plentong and Giant. Jusco is generally more expensive. At Tesco, you can join the club and get some points when you shop and converts to a shopping voucher. If you use Maybank Family&Friends credit card, there's extra 5% rebate.

I checked with the TC residences roadshow guys there last week at Jusco and they confirmed with me leh...haha..duno whether is their sales gimmick anot. Anyway an Ikea outlet will be open there probably in 3 years time...Can't wait! If JB have a clustered shopping area like KL Buit Bintang or PJ that would be great!!! I thk most probably Setia Eco City (Bukit Indah) would fulfill this role... I love shopping!!! Edited December 22, 2009 by Berncsp76 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver_blade Turbocharged February 22, 2010 Share February 22, 2010 On Terbau City, anyone has any idea if they have those cheap mobile phone accessories shop? If don't have, any suggestion of any other 'mega'mall selling those? Tot of bringing my parents there for such things....as part of their day-trip. I don't usually buy such thing in JB.
