At Christmas as well.... a) that must be their beusiest period and b) think of all the redundancies. Shit.

Although strangely appropriate that MFI should fall apart

I went in there the other day and it was empty, i think they've been struggling for a while. Pick n mix was amazing though.

That's my urine you're eating after I've been fondling the sherbet saucers with my piss soaked fingers.
Actually not surprising that they’re in trouble. “Woolies” doesn’t really have a place on the High Street anymore. Virgin and HMV are usually better value for music and DVD’s, Game for all that gubbins and Toy’s R Us for the Glitters amongst us has a far better selection.
A pick & Mix franchise selling traditional old school penny sweets, US rubbish etc as well could be a winner.

Virgin was spot on in selling their Megastores to Zavvi because I'd imagine they'll be on there way sooner or later. As far as I know HMV is fine.
Sad because as a kid Woolworths was the shop for toys et al. But it's been largely shit for years and this doesn't suprise me one bit.

Woolworths has got worse and worse for toys and stationary, which was about all I ever bought there...other than Pick n Mix, which was immense! Cheaper than anywhere else and such a big choice!!!
Oh wait, Johno's brother works for Woolies...that ain't good...

Lets get the orange hats out and protest round the back of a Woolworths about the running of the company.
