This is a normal post My money is on WHSmith
Can't understand how they've survived this long frankly.

This is a normal post Yeah, I'll go with Smiths as well.
In fact any company that sells stuff printed on paper or on a disc is fucked.

by charging 75p for a pack of rizlas.

I loathe that shop, but surprisingly they are the biggest bookseller in the country*. God knows how, I've never seen a book I want in there.

*now I've typed that it seems impossible, but I'm pretty sure its true.

This is a normal post That is surprising.
They might pick up far more trade from their airport and train station branches than we'd expect.

This is a normal post End of last year I spoke to a financial Journalist at a party
He said there were going to be more big ones this summer. It seems alot of high street brands took out 6/7 year loans in 2007 before it all went tits up. Look out for companies that have undergone massive expansion recently and have concessions all over. My money is on a major high street chemist.

They have a decent online business and you can actually buy stuff you'd want there - they've got a bit of a niche. I still use it now and again and I think a lot of people do.

Smiths is a better bet. And good riddance.

This is a normal post I'd say Staples and DSG
Argos are probably fine as they sell lots of different items - although their high street stores might close in favour of the big Argos Extra stores out on the retail parks
