    Our local has turned into a B&M - that made me rather ecstatic in a geeky money saving way...

    I would much rather have a 99p store and Poundland in our town centre rather than something 'upmarket' like rip off Waitrose
    :eek:
    Proud meowmy of four fuzzy cats :)

    Chorlton branch has become a B&M store.
    There is a Quality Saver store yards away from it.
    Would have liked something different,all the stores are the same.

    Carlisle Woolies - I guess it's just going to be an empty building now, to match all the other empty buildings in the city.

    dilapidated and full of druggies and their paraphenalia no doubt

    To be honest I cant really think of a store that would 'go' in my home town of Selby for the size of the shop - other than Primark or 99p store....

    St Annes turned into a B&M almost the week after Woolies closed! They must have been lying in waiting!

    Apparently the Lytham Woolies is going to be a Tesco Express... not like there is a need for yet another one!
