Old Woolies Stores

Over on the Moneysaving Old Style board people are commenting on whats going into their old woolies stores. Home Bargains, Iceland, Ann Summers etc.

Does anyone in Northern Ireland know what is going to their local old Woolies, and how soon they will be up and running. A Poundland store would be great to have here, or even Wilkinsons.:j

    Would agreee with Poundland and/or Wilkinsons. Have used both on mainland and found them to be very good.

    Administrators must have money to burn! All the lights at the Bangor store have been on 24/7 for the past month since it closed.

    They must read this forum - the lights were not on today!
