Extra time for Woolies bargains
Woolworths stores given an extra 24 hours to clear their shelves admitted today they may be forced to close earlier if shoppers continued to pour through the doors to snap up the remaining bargains on offer.
The store giant's last 200 branches, including its outlet in Wednesfield, are now due to close tomorrow after being given a 24-hour reprieve by administrators.
But devastated workers at the store, which is located in High Street, Wednesfield, said there may not even be enough stock left in the branch to allow them to open the doors for one last time tomorrow.
Store manager Carol Dunkombe said: "There is not a lot left, basically just a few DVDs, CDs and clothes.
"I expect the weather will keep most people away today but I think it will be busy tomorrow, that's if we have anything left by then.
