I found myself standing in WoolWorths today waiting for my Wife.
I wondered what’s the shop for ? In our branch there isn’t much focus – I’d just bought a ?1.99 Climbing Rose and she was buying a DVD.
It’s OK. I’ve worked it out. It’s for selling cheap stuff. Cheap CDs, Cheap DVDs, Cheap Roses (!) etc. etc. A bit like a pound shop but with scope for higher prices. Genius. An impending recession – It’s the future!
I find my Wife but no DVD. No purchase.
Why ? They couldn’t find the original disc in their filing system. Lost sale.
Maybe not the future quite yet. 🙁
PS. I’ve just read that Alan Sugar had bought 4% of Woolworths, so maybe it is the future after all 🙂

Well, we all know what happened in the end 🙁
