Re: T G Jones closure (was WHSmith)
I think the words 'town center' and 'open elsewhere' tell a story here

Re: T G Jones closure (was WHSmith)
Next to poundland in my hometown. Same crap at 3 times the price, thats whys it's doomed.
WHSmith was the place to be in the 1980s. It had it all, music, computers, software, books, magazines. Its been a gradual decline to 'half price' chocolate, and bic pens.

Most of stuff that people want can now be bought cheaper (although of dubious quality) from places like Amazon, Ebay . . and all the other places flooding the market with cheap tat.
