[Benjamin]

None of this online crap either, I mean the proper shop/store.


AGAIN WAIT FOR MY POLL!

[Shaun]

-sits filing myself with anticipation-

[Kerry]

*waits*

[Shaun]

blu-tac!? LOL

I just loved how it covered everything... but I most went in there for toys and pic'n'mix. I remember when I was like 8 I thought it would be a good idea to buy a bunch of it, and those tiny coke cans, and sell them in my street. It didn't work out :(

[Josy]

Computer Games & Everlasting Gobstoppers

Trust me, trying to find it now is a right pain, unless you go to WHSmith where they charge like £4 for the stuff. :bored:


I used to love those tiny coke cans. It's like Superdrug and such do those minature cosmetics like Lynx, Palmers Cocoa Butter, Mouthwash...:love:

[Kerry]

I used to buy alsorts from there. Not sure I can pick one.

[Shaun]

Wilkinsons does a lot of what Woolworths used to do - only with less entertainment, more home furnishings + toiletries. It's more useful I guess now that we have an HMV but still :(

[Josy]

I bought my first ever set of pots out of there for my first house :sad:

Our HMV closed down this week out of the blue. Exeter is such a failing city. :bawling:

[Kerry]

Oh and Wilko's yes.

[Josy]

Not as faily as Airdrie, we have about 16 sunbed shops 6 bookies 2 charity shops and a gregs :joker:

[Shaun]

I saw it closing down when I went there about a fortnight ago Ben :( tragic times.

I stole a giraffe stirrer from The Giraffe :D

Take it back right now. They'll go bust now because of that. :sad:

[Shaun]

they've survived a nail-bomb, they'll survive this :bored:

[Benjamin]

LOL the nail bomb! :laugh:

I forgot about that.

[Stephanie]

pick'n'mix.

[Beastie]

I used to get some Xmas presents from there. Like a paint your own money box and stuff like that. It was like a "quality" Aladdins Cave. And now it's gone :( It's not the same online.

WOOLIES NEEDS TO COME BACK.

It was the shop I went into the most after Primark and HMV...

Wahhhhhhhh! :bawling:

[Livia]

I miss everything about Woolies.

[Crimson Dynamo]

Nothing. It was a **** hole.

All is not bad then! :)

[Harry!]

I miss looking at the CD's and DVD's section of the store, they always had a good sellection and I enjoyed looking at them. I got my first single from Wollies!

[Stacey.]

Music. Cus even though there's HMV, it doesn't always have everything in or whatever, there was more stuff in Woolworths. And pic n' mix too, but they do that in WHSmiths anyway :amazed:

[Smithy]

Pick N Mix

[Tom.]

The one near me faced an Argos so it was pointless because you could just find something in the Argos catalogue and the staff do all the hard work of finding it etc, providing its in stock :joker:

Only ever went in Woolworths for pick & mix and I bought a Freeview box from there once for £15, they were generally about £50 at the time. The man who served me had half of his ear missing

[Angus]

I feel nostalgic about Woollies because I had my first Saturday job there and I loved it.

[Niall]

Pick N Mix :'(

[Stephanie]

:(

[Jords]

Music.

[Shaun]

only arista and I going for toys puts me in a dangerous category.

[Kerry]

I think the only thing I didn't buy from there was PicknMix

[Harry!]

I still have a Woolworths carier bag in good condition in my cupboard!

[Kerry]

My Xmas tree is from Woollies :laugh:
