I miss Woolworths

Safeway's had no security and no cameras, way after everywhere else.

One thing I won't miss about Woolworths - the lack of Brasso on the shelves.

Only three ha'pence a tin as well, when they did have it.

It really doesn't make your asshole shiny, though. Whoever came up with that should have gone to prison.

Could murder a pick and mix to be fair.

Another Woolworth staffs failure:

My sister was choosing some pick & mix, and a shrew appeared and told her that she should not pick her favourites - she should just take a random handful - as that would mean that other customers would be denied the red cracknels.

My sister explained how that would undermine the whole ethos, but the bitch wouldn't hear it.

That is the attitude which led to Woolies collapse.

I bought Urban Hype's "Trip To Trumpton" on cassette from Woolworths in 1992

I was 11 years old tbf.

Everywhere was back then.

I lifted a ‘Shoplifters will be prosecuted’ notice from a Woolies.
