    I think it will be the smaller High St stores that have bigger JJB stores in the area?

    Dilemma- should I break my boycott of JJB to profit from their downfall? They must have the worst customer service of any store I've ever been in.
  • Yes break the boycott its only false pride that keeps you from profiting, you will feel so much better when you have a few gains from their loss!!!

    I've looked on the net but can only see comments made about stores closing no lists yet.

    hi all i used to work in jjb for a few years, around a few stores,

    i myself was involved at closing a store, they decided in a few days and just moved most of the stock to the larger stores in the area, my understanding is, that it will be the smaller high street stores that will go
