Hahahaha! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!
Does the owner have to answer to the Woolworths head office? If HQ allows this then it’s time to add another to the ban list.
I think the 5 cent and dime stores closed in the US but the company runs FootLocker. Can’t say I ever bought anything from FootLocker but will make sure I never do.
Does this business have anything to do with the defunct American chain Woolworth’s?
Our German friend says if it weren’t for the US military there giving jobs to Germans, they’d be in hurting.
Not for much longer. The muzzies have been demanding Octoberfest be banned because of the women and the alcohol.
As long 20 years ago, I noticed some of the main stores in my area did not carry ANY Christmas cards or decorations that were explicitly Christian. Even Santa seemed to be on the way out: Santa was morphing into a kind of wizard with stars and crescents on his hat.
When I was a kid, there were certain sections of NYC where Jews lived that there wasn’t any Christmas stuff in the stores.

I ‘remember’ those days.
I have absolutely no problem with a neighborhood business serving ITS neighborhood, WE don’t have to go in the store.
OLD STORY
Kid was in Florida at his families ‘Winter Home’ in Miami Beach and the father kept saying Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas and the kid finally said
“Dad you said us Jews don’t celebrate Christmas so I don’t understand you now”
“Son, WE, as members of the Jewish Faith, do not celebrate Christmas. BUT the Irish, Italians, Polish, Christians and most other people do and I have huge Department stores in ALL their neighborhoods.
Christmas paid for this house and vacation”
“Merry Christmas”
Woolworths over in Europe was part of FW Woolworths, but not part of Foot locker (the successor of FWWoolworth). Not related now...
Big stores sell what sells in the region.
Boycott away, but there are no sears stores selling snowblowers in Miami and managers have discretion on what to sell in each store of all the chains.
