A few tears were shed when the last Woolworths closed down. Not by me though - I don't share this sentiment. Woolies was full of tacky shit when I was a kid and was full of the same tacky shit when it closed its doors for the last time this year. This is the St Ives branch - one of the only chain stores on the harbour-front. I'm glad it's gone. Let the buskers move in, as far as I'm concerned...

I loved Woolworths growing up.
Sure most of the place had crap but there was always something you could find to use there.
Plus, the alternative of the mega-nightmare Walmart makes me miss the smaller Woolies chain even more.

Golly I hope they replaced Woolworths with a classier tenant like Walgreens, CVS, or... (dare we dream) ... a Dollar Store!
