Bangor Woolworths

Noticed today that there was lots of activity inside, cages of stock etc. Anyone know what it is going to be?

  • It's going to be B&M Bargains. Both the Bangor and Ballymena stores have been taken over by them.

    It's not crap. They do all the big brand names for food, cat and dog food, washing powder etc. And the toys are excellent value. They bought loads of Woolies Toys and are selling them cheap as well as the Ladybird clothing range.
  • They could do with improving the logo though. It looks crap from the outside, however I did look at the website today and was quite impressed with what they sold. It looked like a junk store before I did so!

    The one in Ards is CRAP
  • the one in Enniskillen is very good.they have a food isle with all the big names at nearly give away prices! sometimes close to the sell by date but not always and to be honnest most of the stuff i buy is eaten within 2 days by all the kids anyway,lol,so i appreciate cheaper good quality food now its the summer hols!!
    I think Bangor is about the same size as the Enniskillen store so hopefully they will have the food isle aswell.
    As for the stuff being crap i would certinally agree-if you buy the crap stuff! however it is great value for bed linnen,brand name products,food,mirrors ect the better quality stuff........if you buy a 32 piece cutlery set at £1 and it bends when you use it that says more about the customer than the product,lol.
    At least it will be a few more jobs for people :T
    it takes more energy
    to hate than to love...
    love and relax!
