Does it do these?

It'd be 3 million infected if you still had snotty kids (and adults) dipping into these

That was literally my next lined-up joke, along the lines of Pick n Mix

Bit spooky really

Did it sell anything else?

Think they did CD's near the end with a mark up of 75%

I did a Christmas stint in Woolworths, let's just say they sell everything, badly

CDs & DVDs were usually dispensed by the old crone round the corner upstairs. I remember once paying £15 for Downfall, cheerful film that

I went to Woolworths to get a few things and this was late at night when they were filing the shelves with everything except toilet paper. The shelves were completely empty with a sign saying "one pack per customer"

I asked one of the workers " so no toilet paper I see" she just giggled and said no

I am getting really mad now and takes me a lot to get mad but this is over the top craziness

I recommend that you commandeer one roll of bog paper per day every day from work until its all ( pardon the pun) blown over

We also have BigW, which is a division of the Woolworths group, and is more akin to the UK Woolies when it was around, in terms of goods sold.

No pick 'n mix though - I used to love my Friday binge at the sweeties counter. Sigh.

 

[mina1929]

Finished work and went to get a pink slip for my car and then I thought I might duck over to my local shop to see if there is any loo paper.

No luck again

Got my pink slip yesterday as well, and then called in at Woolies on the way home - nothing.

Went back around 19:00 to see if anything had miraculously appeared, but again - nothing.

Talking to one of the fillers, he said that on Friday everything should be back to normal, and the best time to come in is between 15:00 - 16:00 as that is when they get the new deliveries. Yeah. RIght. Will believe that when I see it.

He also said a lot of people, in the absence of loo roll, are buying paper kitchen towels, which is why those shelves are empty.

If people really are flushing kitchen towels down the loo, then there is going to be a massive problem with the sewer system, as they don't break down.

A man and his wife who had bought two huge packets of loo roll each were being interviewed. When asked why so much, the man replied that it would be needed if they had to self-isolate for 2 weeks. The interviewer then asked how many packets of loo roll they normally use in a week - 4 rolls. So 8 rolls for 2 weeks, plus a few more as they will be at home all the time instead of working - maximum of 16 rolls to get them through the self-isolation period. Why then did they need 96 rolls?

The man struggled to answer, probably because there was no rational answer.

And this, folks, appears to be the mentality of us Aussies.

I give up.

That is the exact time I went to the shops to my surprise there were tissues there

But those are the best.
We call it "lösviktsgodis" in Sweden.

And instead of boosting infection-rates, id like to think anyone buying candy from those containers on a regular basis has an impenetrable immune system.
Nom nom nom

So glad you posted that. After you saying you do not get real chips in Sweden i worried what i could eat if i ended up there for some reason.

But so good to see you actually sell decent stuff i could eat all day.

 

[goatwack]

Wow. Lösviktsgodis looks almost the same as our Pick n Mix found in this country, except sanitized, edible, and without used needles or condoms

Altho i have not seen any needles or condoms in them, i tend to stay away from the two bottom rows, since those are in toddler-territory.
Not that grown-ups are much better when it comes to that sort of thing.

But its so nice being able to pick out a bag of candies where every single one is your favorite.
And the mix of sour,chocolate,gummys etc.
