Does anyone know if the Campbeltown shop is profitable?

One of my sons bought all my grandchildren Woolies vouchers for Christmas, BEFORE all the hooha blew up. He`s given them all out already so that they can get something before the shop disappears.

At least they'll get more with the vouchers now than they would have done. Assuming the stores have anything left. I expect it will be mayhem in a lot of the stores.

One of my grandchildren, an 11 year old boy, his mum says there was nothing left that he wanted, so she`s given him the money, and used the voucher to buy a present for one of her step-grandchildren, because there was plenty of baby stuff left. I hope all the others have managed to get something.

I dont know about anybody else but I heard that Argos will be taking over the shop in Town.

I dont think they will be taking over 'Woolies' just the acuall shop.

Argos taking over that shop would make sence as the Argos lorry is always down.
It would also mean games and CD's would be available to buy here.

I hope Argos take over the shop so that I can buy my Xbox games insted of ordering from the internet and waiting for it to be delivered

Poundland is fantastic and they keep changing their ranges so it is never boring--fantastic ones in Edinburgh and Aberdeen.

I think most people will want a shop where they can buy Xbox and PlayStation games from town insted of buying them online.

Strange ! Why buy in a store when you can buy from an Offshore online company ie Play.com and save around £15 on every game.... And free delivery which normally arrives in 3 days....

Pre order and sometimes your sorted in 2 days.....

You will find nowadays people would rather wait a day or 2 and save 30 - 40% of the £40 or £50 price tag

Well I think most people would rather a shop like argos than a Pound Land. I dont think anybody in town wants another Wollies, Nickle 'N' Dime, or Bargin Store.

A shop like Argos that sells everything, maybe more expesive than online but it would be better than another on of the above.

How about a Wilkinson shop, it would make a nice replacement, be cheaper as well.

Waits patiently to hear news of the new Campbeltown Tesco Metro.
