THE HISTORY OF DUNNES STORES
DUNNES Stores opened its first store on Patrick Street in Cork in 1944 - and it was an instant hit.
Shoppers from all over the city rushed to the store to snap up quality clothing at pre-war prices in Ireland's first 'shopping frenzy'.
During the excitement, a window was forced in and the police had to be called to help control the crowds hoping to bag founder Ben Dunne's 'Better Value' bargains.
Dunnes later opened more stores in the 1950s and began to sell groceries in 1960 - starting with apples and oranges.
The retailer said: "Fruit was expensive at the time and Ben Dunne yet again offered Better Value than anyone else in town.
"Over time, our food selection has grown and that spirit of good value has remained strong.
"Now we offer a wide range of carefully-sourced foods from both local Irish suppliers and overseas."
The retailer's first Dublin store opened its doors in 1957 on Henry Street and a super store on South Great Georges Street was unveiled in 1960.
They added: "In 1971, our first Northern Irish store opened, and many others soon followed.
"Expansion continued in the 1980s in Spain, and later into Scotland and England."
Dunnes now has 142 stores and employs 15,000 people.

Biird star Lisa Canny recalls ‘bonkers' gig with Ed Sheeran at Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann
The Mayo woman and some of her bandmates joined Sheeran, Amble, Beoga and Aaron Rowe in a surprise gig in Wexford town during the ongoing Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann. Large crowds flocked to the Sky and the Ground on South Main Street when news of Sheeran's presence filtered through the town, which is expected to welcome 750,000 people over the course of the eight-day traditional Irish music festival. There, he treated the small, intimate crowd to a number of his biggest hits, including 'Nancy Mulligan' – which was inspired by his grandparents – 'Castle On A Hill', 'Galway Girl' and 'Perfect'. He was also accompanied by the groups for a rendition of the well-known Irish folk song 'Wild Mountain Thyme'. The gig had been planned by Warner Music weeks in advance with what were described as 'M16 level preparations'. Speaking on Newstalk, BIIRD founder Lisa Canny described the gig as 'bonkers'. Mr Sheeran wore the band's signature white jersey which the band have sold as merchandise. Ms Canny founded BIIRD earlier this year with a large group of other female traditional Irish musicians, including fellow Mayo woman, Sal Heneghan. 'We just came off the main stage at All Together Now on Sunday and sure we were dying a death on Monday and then had to go down to Wexford on Tuesday to hop on a song with Ed Sheeran,' explained Ms Canny, who hails from Hollymount. 'It was surreal, we haven't really taken it all in yet but he was an absolute dote,' added the renowned harpist and banjo player. 'There's no airs and graces about him whatsoever, he was as sound as could be. He came up and literally sat down with us and asking about our plans and offering us advice and help and gave us contact details. He's sound, sound as could be.' Mr Sheeran was born and raised in Yorkshire but spent a lot of his time in Ireland as a child.

John Leguizamo slams 'moron' Superman star Dean Cain for joining ICE
The actor and comedian called 'moron' Dean Cain out after the former Superman star announced he would be joining ICE John Leguizamo blasted Dean Cain, a vocal Trump supporter, for his decision to sign up with ICE, the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency. The esteemed actor and advocate, who moved from Colombia to the U.S. at the age of three, took to Instagram with a video lambasting the ex-Superman actor. Dean, known for his role as Superman in the '90s hit show Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman, has recently been critical of the latest Superman series for its progressive themes. He stirred controversy by announcing on social media his new affiliation with ICE, coinciding with the Department of Homeland Security's push for recruitment following a budget boost. In a fierce critique, the star of Romeo + Juliet mocked, "What kind of loser volunteers to be an ICE officer? What a moron. Dean Cain, your pronouns are 'has/been.'" This clash follows Dean's own video post on social media, where he encouraged others to enlist in ICE. "Hey everybody, Dean Cain here. For those who don't know, I am a sworn law enforcement officer, as well as being a filmmaker, and I felt it was important to join with our first responders to help secure the safety of all Americans, not just talk about it. So, I joined up," he declared, reports the Mirror US. "Since President Trump took office, ICE has arrested hundreds of thousands of criminals, including terrorists, rapists, murderers, pedophiles, MS-13 gang members, drug traffickers, you name it - very dangerous people who are no longer on the streets," he added. "So now I've spoken with some officials over at ICE, and I will be sworn in as an ICE agent ASAP." The initiative is part of a broader push by the Trump administration and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem to boost recruitment efforts. DHS has recently declared plans to scrap the age limit and reduce the minimum age requirement to 18, along with perks such as a $50,000 sign-on bonus and student loan forgiveness. CNN Newsnight's panelists chimed in, too. Commentator Scott Jennings remarked, "Having someone like that out touting it, talking about, 'Hey, this is a thing you can do for your government, this is a public service,' it's going to help them recruit and they have a bunch of people to recruit." Podcaster Van Lathan retorted, "Scott, it's not '95. Nobody gives a Sam Hill what Dean Cain does." He continued, "Dean ain't worked in a while. Dean needs the 50,000. That's what got Dean off the couch. Dean ain't worked in a while. Dean gonna take that money and buy some crypto. Dean need the 50. That's what Dean is on."

Little Mix star Perrie Edwards is set to show off natural beauty after signing huge 6-figure deal with cosmetics giant
Perrie teased new solo music this week to her 18.8million Instagram followers with a montage of footage PERRIE NICE! Little Mix star Perrie Edwards is set to show off natural beauty after signing huge 6-figure deal with cosmetics giant SHE has always loved experimenting with her image and has debuted some dramatic looks over the years. But I have heard that Little Mix star Perrie Edwards is set to show off her natural beauty after landing a lucrative deal with beauty giant L'Oreal. The Black Magic hitmaker has secured an agreement, understood to be worth £300,000, with its skincare brand CeraVe, which prides itself on working with dermatologists and developing products for sensitive skin. A source said: 'Perrie wants to show that taking care of your skin can be affordable and people don't need to break the bank with fancy creams. 'She has always loved testing different make- up looks, but knows that taking care of her skin is a priority. Perrie will also be able to show off her edgy side with the advert.' The singer, who has a three-year-old son, Axel, with former Premier League footballer Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, told Fabulous magazine in 2018: 'I have very sensitive skin, and I used to use loads of products on my face because I thought that was best.' She added: 'The worst thing I used to do was go out partying and drinking and just sleep with my make-up on. 'You think, 'Oh it's only one night, I'm too tired, I really can't be bothered to take all my make-up off'. 'But it only takes one night for a week's worth of acne, so you have to be strict with it.' It comes as Perrie teased new solo music this week to her 18.8million Instagram followers with a montage of footage. She reacted with a raindrop emoji to a fan who commented: 'The drought is over!! So happy and excited for you.' Pop star Perrie last released music in February, with her single Rollercoaster, about the ups and downs that come with love.

'She has snapped up this home and chose somewhere more modest so she could be closer to her parents, who she spends a lot of time with. 'She's looking forward to getting stuck in and fixing it up to her perfect style. She's really proud of everything she's achieved and ready to lay down roots.' Since appearing on Love Island: All Stars in January, Ekin split with Curtis, with the star calling it 'unfortunate' – but she has been concentrating on her career instead, with a focus on acting.
