Sorry but this just cracked me up:

Norma Woods, a cleaner, had come in for hair straighteners but they didn’t have any so she bought two irons instead for £3.98 each. “I reckon I have saved a pound,” she said. “I am really sad about Woolies going. There used to be a shop near where I lived as a kid and I used to go in and nick sweets because I thought the pic’n'mix was free.

I now have a mental image of Norma attempting to straighten her hair with two irons.

It is from this story in the Guardian. It is quite a sad tale. Where am I going to nick my pick ‘n’ pix from now? http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2008/dec/12/woolworths-street-retailers

I remember as a boy being caught pinching pick ‘n’ mix from Woolies by my Mother. She frog marched us all back to the store and made us give the 2 or 3 sweets back and apologise to the staff. I valuable lesson learned. Thank you Woollies. You helped my development as a human being.
