Good old woolies. 
I do miss woolies 
One of the Dragons Den lot bought it out then??? 
Christmas won't be the same without the wonder of woolies.
When I was a wean and given money to shop I bought brylcreme for my dad:
Tinsely candle holder for my mum to put on the coffee table and a quarter of their fudge to eat while I was making up my mind about the quarter tin of toffees to give to my wee sister knowing fine well she didn't like them.

Well I hope everyone boycotts it......
Loads of peeps lost their jobs in the Woolies in my town
A National treasure, that was a part of my youth
My first Saturday job was working in Woolies
And my heart goes out to all the peeps nationwide who have lost their jobs

Awwwww
My first Saturday job was with Woolies as I stated above
I used to work on the biscuit counter
Every Saturday this sweet old lady used to come in for a bag of broken biscuits...They used to be sold at a huge discount
Well one particular Saturday, she came in, and there were no broken biccies left....So what did I do
Yep...You've guessed ....
I spent ages under the counter breaking the corners off biscuits....Thank goodness CCTV's were not around in those days
I have always been a soft touch....
