boston branch is going to be a QD store and there was 25 jobs - 600 turned up to apply!!!

Peterborough is suppose to be a primark, but i guess we will have to wait and see

Guildford branch still doesn't seem to be anything. I've not checked in a while though...

There's a rumour this is going to be a Primark, this would be perfect as it is large, two storey and next to New Look.

My local Woolies in Diss, Norfolk is going to be a Carpet Right....WOOHOO (Sarcastic tone) yet ANOTHER flooring place... we already have two in the town. Would rather have had a range or Primark.

Did anyone see that programme on tv last night about the Wellworths that's opened in Dorchester? Ex Woolworths manager and the staff went it alone and opened their own version of Woolworths in the same premises. Looked the same to me - same layout, same goods. I couldn't help wondering why they did it. If no-one wanted Woolworths why would they want Wellworths?

they did it as that store was doing well and making profits - some of them were it was just company as a whole that was failing. its really great that its running as town didnt have any other stores like that and far better than an empty store like everywhere else still seems to have.

Does anyone know what Peterborough is going to be turning into? I hope it's Home Bargains but I doubt it as it is probably to big for HB!

god i used to work in that one years ago when i was a student! its a huge store compared to any others ive been in. you'd think ones like that they could have a few mini shops inside with a coffee shop in the middle or something that would be nice.

I've been told ours is a BM Bargains now.
