You're showing your age now Maz.

What about TV ads for the new Ronco woollen jumper de-fuzzer? I doubt you'll remember those either.

I don't even remember Woolco. I just made it up. Did it exist?

The Preston one didn't seem particularly busy, no worse than most other jobs at this time of year...

Looks like Woolies won't survive, but if the sites are bought up by other retailers then hopefully some people will get re-employed (albeit in Sainburys or Lidl).

Yeah that's true, and a shame. Woolies is the best shop in Newmarket (OK the standard isn't that high), they sell all sorts, gardening stuff, light bulbs, kids toys, DIY stuff, paint, kitchen stuff - only place in the town for CDs - the list goes on.

And the one thing Newmarket does NOT need is another f*ing Tescos driving all the other shops out of business and clogging up the high street with their delivery lorries. I'm not happy

I used to shoplift from Woolies when I was little too. The shame.
