High street stores has an awful lot to compete with. I visit other high street stores as do many other people so why not Wilko? I think for me the perception is cheap stuff of poor quality or quality stuff is expensive. "It does not matter if I am right or wrong" if people feel this way they will not visit. Is this where Wilko failed?
I feel sorry for those that will not have a job.

They employed 12,000 people across the country Ian,a few of those will be retained ln Poundland and B&M shops opening on former Wilko sites.I found them very convinient 5 of their shops a short drive away. Ideal when you wanted a TV aeriel plug etc at 3pm on Sunday afternoon. Far quicker than waiting for Amazon to post one
