How much do you think you’ve spent in WHSmiths?

I reckon a grand. Gotta be a grand. Easily.

would be quite happy to see WHSmiths go out of business. trying to charge me £4 for a bottle of water just because they’re the only option in the train station, get yourselves tae fuck you thieving bastards

loads probably

| reckon it would be in and around the £180 mark

Don’t have a pop at WHsmiths GBOL, they still have that magazine/news paper smell when you walk in - takes me back to my news paper round days.
I can see most things on the high st disappearing unless they provide an immediate service like food or drink.

i refuse to spend even £1 in WHSmiths on principle

Like the empire, Smith’s is a once great institution crumbling before our eyes. Hopefully Brexit give it a body to return it back to its former glory.

£1,250

Spent a couple years working in Smiths back in the day (2002-2004), for less than £4 an hour, when CDs were still £13.99, so even with my 25% discount they probably made thousands out of me through my purchases. Never did any work though and ate all the sweets off the comics and stole cover CDs off all the mags so the joke is on them

I cycled past WHSmith in Wood Green this morning to find a queue of at least 8 people waiting outside. They didn’t seem to be in WHSmith uniforms. Why could that have been?
It was like those people who wait outside the bank for it to open but it was definitely WHSmith.

Maybe they were waiting for it to open

It’s probably one of the ones that doubles as a post office.

Maybe their uniforms were inside

Does anyone know if that Twitter account that kept ragging on WHSmiths for being really poorly maintained still exists?
