I have just heard this morning that next and dixons are going tits up in jan/feb so if you get any vouchers for crimbo, get them spent !!

[losixxx]

it was reported in november that DSG (currys/pc world/currys digital)(dixons only trade's online now) were struggling. the bank's have refused to lend them anymore money..

[Alfonzo]

2009 is going to be an interesting year. Weird times we live in. Good luck to all those finding themselves unemployed.

[telboy]

There'll be no high street stores left at this rate!!

Must admit going to work this morning knowing i still had my job felt GOOD Glad it's out of the way now before christmas and not having to worry about it over the holidays. I felt sick yesterday and it wasn't nice seeing the people who had got a letter saying that they were being made redundant On a good note the office tonight looked like it had been RAPED somebody even pinched a strip light

[AndyF]

Oh Heck

Guess they will have to lay you off after all now, to replace the strip light!

get a new sauce m8, next have just announced record christmas profits and are on target to achieve projected yearly target! DSG have also announced this week trading is up

[DCM]

Next were 7% down on Christmas takings of last year, M&S are laying off.... more to go I reckon in the larger chain stores

[losixxx]

down 7% year on year which is hughly different to christmas trading figures, next directory up 1% shares up over 10% and on target to hit £425 million profit hardly going t*t's up!
