Is Wilko the new Woolies?

I love Wilkos, me. Need a fuse and a ball of string? Go to Wilkinsons. Need cut-price brand-name soap and shampoo? Go to Wilkinsons. Need a new shed and a three piece suite? Get thee to Wilkos. Wilkinsons, it's the new Woolies.

  1. For anyone who owns a shed Wilko's is a life saver. It's like going to a health spa for your mind.

  2. I used to work in Wilcos in the early 1990s when I was a student. I was the fastest (price-)gun in the north-west. Happy memories.

  3. I actually know the store! We often go there when i'm in Salford. I've bought pillows, quilt, kitchen things and lots of other little items. Fantastic place!

  4. I love it.
    The trouble is - you go in for a fuse and come out with a shed.

  6. It's a bit hard to fit a shed in the shopping bag, though but.
