'We'll miss if it goes': Shoppers' fear for future of Wilko after shock announcement
Shoppers in one Greater Manchester town say they fear for the future of their local Wilko and claim it would be a 'big miss' if it were to disappear from the high street.
Marc Campbell, 52, said: "I'm quite suprised. I wouldn't say I'm a regular shopper but I was in there today, and I think they are pretty decent. "It's really good for storage boxes and those types of things. I bought a maiden in there a couple of weeks ago. The prices are really good. They are not always the cheapest but for some things they are really good. Plus there's no much left in Stockport, so we'd really miss if it goes.
Joanne Barnshaw, 52, from Stockport said: "It's sad. I mean it does have the likes of Home Bargains and B+M right nearby which are bigger stores so I suppose in that way I can understand. But it's an iconic name isn't it and it's been going for years. I think it would be missed if it goes as it's cheaper than so many other places."
