I certainly do miss Woolies, I dunno about the rest of you. I know Woolies isn't new, topical news or anything but it's been a while now since the stores closed and I was wondering if anyone else is missing them? I've seen on the Woolies Blog recently that the business is going to rise from the ashes as a dedicated online retailer (Ebay and Amazon better watch out
), with no actual stores anywhere but the same old Woolies stuff (including their classic pick n mix by the looks of things). So, look out this summer for the usual ironing board covers, micro-fibre dusters, toys, CDs, kids clothes and of course sweets! I wouldn't mind betting that there is a long term plan afoot to keep the Woolies brand alive by any means possible with the potential for a high street resurrection in years to come. Hopefully I'll get the chance to rummage through those cheap Woolies DVDs again one day in the future....
