I was listening to "Sonic the Comic the Podcast" recently and they were reminiscing about Woolies and I was trying to remember what they sold. But all I could think of was ZX Spectrum tapes and pick & mix. I guess... drills...?

CD singles! A whole wall of them!

Ah, now you're reminding me of the Woolies quandary back in the day. Buy pick and mix or save up for a 1.99 Mastertronic Speccy game. Which were, with one or two exceptions, invariably utter shit. Should have gone for the sugar fix.

Well, Finders Keepers and Kickstart 2 were okay. But the rest, not so much.

I bought my first vinyl LP in Woolies. UB40 - Signing Off.
