In the 198os Woolies was the place where my parents got me my A-Team and Knightrider toys (and music tapes!)

RIP Woolworths.... and Woolco!

Woolies always had the best toy selection when i was a child back in the 1980s. I always remember my nan would take me there 4 my saturday treat there

whats this woolworths? we have a wollies here but its a supermarket

[FabFM]

@The096757 Dosen't mean becoming a dollar store would have worked for them. They were five and dime stores at one time, but sclaing down the selection probably wouldn't have impressed the woolworths crowd at the time. They, however, were in the perfect position to become what Wal-mart is today, and should have been.

@FabFM

woolworths had a store called Woolco that sold refrigorators and tvs that was like sears but it did not last as long as woolworths did. that's why i said they should have became like a dollar store. they tried to become big like sears. it didn't work out for them.

@The096757 Woolworth shouldn't have transformed into a dollar store. They could have been what Wal-Mart is now!

@TimFrith24

around 1997 they went out of business. they bought expensive shoe stores and didn't transfrom into a dollar store like they should have.

i like the music here. not annoying like commercials have been for over a decade.
