You can hardly get cheaper clothes anywhere else. The atmosphere doesn't animate you to stay longer than absolutely necessary, it's typically crowded with young shoppers and families, clothes are piled up, the presentation is very basic, etc.

You can actually make bargains at Penneys. It's cheap but not everything is bad quality. Business shirts for under a 10er last quite a while and don't look bad unless you expect to see logos. The seamless underwear doesn't have to cost more than a few Euro and they last. Baby clothes for few Euro? Yep. Irish sports supporters shirts? Yep, and in most cases cheaper than at Carroll's. Just be aware that Penneys is for the masses and you can easily see various others in clothes you know are from Penneys. If you don't care about status and don't have much to spend - go shopping to Penneys.

Penneys also have household and decoration stuff, towels, bed sheets, duvets, and some bigger shops also toiletries or cooled drinks and food.

You never really know who makes the clothes you buy and if the 100 Euro trouser made its worker more money than the 9 Euro trouser from Penneys.
