Title: Woolworths!
Post by: Michael Alexander on August 15, 2007, 03:42:14 PM
I heard this from a very reliable source, that Woolworths are packing up and heading to Luderitz before the year is out...... At least Gary Gray will be happy!

I bcan't believe they think the market will be more profitable that Oranjemund at Luderitz... poverty is at an all time high there... also, Mike, on a related note you can add Dolph van Wyk to lost diamonds

Warren, don't you mean Denise has a merc?

Paul, you've got us only metres away - who cares about sand?

Sure, if you left looking after the garden up to Mike, I'd only have to hope over the fence to find sand...

Warren, save your sick confessions for the Jerry Springer show...

Woolworths Update: Arthur spoke to Oscar today and the story is that they are staying in Omund, but are opening a new branch in Luderitz, therefore hopefully combining their trucks in order to bring foods back to Omund....

???

Ah Paul - you are just pissed off because you have two Beemers.
Difficult to make the same mistake twice...

Maybe next time you should consider buying Kenny's budgie. At least it will be cheap.

Warren, the problem with buying Kenny's cheap budgie, is that it comes with 2 free kids......

:P

OK, my hand has been forced... I suggest we start up 2 new forums... one for everyone to voice their support for how great Beemers are and how pityful it is to own a merc... (or a morris minor - the two are interchangable)

and the other one for those stinkin budgie lovers !!!!

So is Woolies gone?

Post by: Stevie on September 04, 2008, 01:53:10 PM
Woolies is   still here .

Imagine   if   they   move   out   then  Jet  can   move  in   or  even  Shoprite .

Or maybe SPAR could expand..........

Ooooooooh! A lot of people would not like that..... shooter

Post by: Rhona on September 05, 2008, 10:00:56 AM
To hell with the begrudgers - better SPAR expand than competition move in.........unless of course I was the competition  image19 .........my strategy would be to knock 10c off the price of everything - so I'd be at least 10c cheaper than SPAR prices!  laughpoint

All is fair in business my friend........and for my cheaper prices I'll have a quicker turn over of stock and therefor a higher profit margin..........Ooooh! and I'll open 30 minutes before you and close 30 minutes after you!

@ Rhona - Let's see how you handle your staff then - paid 10% less while working an hour a day longer than Mike's happy staff???  You'll have a riot on your hands, while over at the SPAR Mike and his staff are enjoying a nice  36_1_72 on the stoep! :nono1:
Title: Re: Woolworths!
Post by: Rhona on September 05, 2008, 10:35:29 AM
Oh no Bertie you have it wrong - because I will have a higher profit margin than Mike, I can afford to pay my staff N$2.00 an hour more than he does............infact his staff will probably be working for me by the end of the week as they'll get a percentage discount for doing their shopping with me AND as an added bonus - I'll teach my staff to play hurling  ha ha

Pray tell , Oh! Wise leprechaun, will one be allowing the unions to operate in thy store of profit?

Post by: Rhona on September 05, 2008, 03:07:50 PM
Union? Why of course - but it will be my union and the terms, conditions and contracts will be so unbelievable that everyone will want to work for me.........play nice and get returns
