Primark in Edinburgh

Options
Hi
Not sure if this is the best place to post this, but I'll give it a go!
Does anyone know when the Primark is opening on Princes Street??
I know we had all the rumours last year that it would be open in Christmas 2008, but having recently been down on Princes Street shopping and seen the Primark posters/logo in the window of the old DP/Burton store, I was wondering if anyone knew of any proposed/definate opening dates?
I've searched online but it keeps taking up loads of reports about last years "supposed" store opening!
Thanks!

    its unbelievable there isnt one in Edinburgh already, but like that article said some people consider Edinburgh too "snooty" for Primark :confused:

    Its not even under Future stores on their website!
    A smile and manners doesnt cost any thing
  • i know, thats weird, but they do have the primark logo's etc up in the windows of the old DP/Burton store on Princes Street so i assume from that they defo are opening. I read in Evening News ages ago that they had their planning approved etc so it looks like its definately coming, just a matter of time when?
