Re: Woolworth's
Our Woolworths is a part of Great Universal Stores - probably not connected to the USA store

Re: Woolworth's
I called into ours this afternoon and to be honest They were only offering exactly what Boots, BHS and many other stores were offering, 20% In fact they were selling the big tins of sweets/chocs for a fiver and 2 wek back asda was doing the same tins only 2 for £7.
Needless to say I left empty handed but were shocked at what people were buying and thought they were getting a bargin.

Re: Woolworth's
Problem with Woolies, is they sell absolutely nothing anyone wants. I went in last week wanting to go on a spending spree, money burning a whole in my pocket, and literally found nothing to buy.

Re: Woolworth's
If you're disappointed at the sales offers, take a look at the poor sods manning the checkouts, like turkeys waiting for Christmas and imagine what they're thinking!

the last Woolworths store in the US closed down in 1997 and changed to Foot Locker ,a sporting goods chain .
Think the US and UK chains have been separate companies for many years , Know they were also big in Australia and New Zealand , don't know if these are still trading or not

Re: Woolworth's
Staff just standing around today in a massive Woolworths in Glasgow, all together in a huddle talking openly about not knowing what's happening with their jobs. Think we know more than them. Happy Christmas everyone.
