Carrefour & The Avenues : Experience

Submitted by DA on Monday, 28 May 20078 Comments

 

Carrefour

Visited The Avenues & Carrefour last night. First impressions:

  • Avenues is too expansive [big shops, big walkway] and too white, they need to add some colour to it
  • I suggest they use diffuse color lights on the wave shapes that hang off the ceiling
  • They might even use the same wave shapes for advertising by projecting ads
  • The elevators have names(?)
  • Parking isnt an issue as long as you are willing to walk from one end to the other, which is darn long if you have shopping bags
  • Carrefour parking space sucks as everyone tries to wrestle in the lot under Carrefour
  • Do not shop from Carrefour if you park under IKEA, long long pushing of shopping trolley involved
  • The guards remind me of US embassy / Military Zone
  • Carrefour has lots to offer in terms of goods but still a bit expensive than City Center(s)
  • If you are looking for a quick bite while inside Carrrefour, avoid it from the snack-counter, it aint worth it
  • Will I go back? Probably not unless I have to take a guest to show around, and its off the route for me
  • Probably might go for movies

    Dear All,

    Now I can feel shopping free and cozy when Carrefour open in Kuwait, the place was fantastic and the product was all there, price? was cheapers than others, and now the landlord was open the gate when we finish shop in Carrefour, so we can sight seeing or window shopping in the mall freely, parking? just remind you when you park just remember the number of the place all trolley boy will find for you, and they said they will have valet parking in front of the Avenue Mall, what the nice shopping there

    I lived in Dubai for almost 4 years. No doubt! I am a big fan of Carrefour. I recently shifted to Kuwait and I am not sure which place (Alghanim or Carrefour) is better. Is there any comparison? I would love to know abt it.
