A new Lidl grocery store will open near Hyattsville on Valentine’s Day.
The latest outpost of the popular German chain will hold a grand opening on Wednesday, Feb. 14, at the former Price Rite location at 3104 Queens Chapel Rd., in the Avondale community of Chillum in unincorporated Prince George’s County, close to Hyattsville and Mount Rainier.
The first 100 customers in line will get gift cards ranging from $5 to $100, with special deals offered on the first day.
Located down the road from the West Hyattsville location of Aldi, a major Lidl competitor, the new 33,000-square-foot store takes up about half of the strip mall.
Other locations around D.C. include Columbia Heights, Takoma Park, and Wheaton.
The Price Rite location was previously a Giant supermarket, famous as the location of a visit from the late Queen Elizabeth II during a 1957 trip to the United States.
The store will be open from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily.
