Big name brands and companies on the verge of collapse

[yardbird]

I just heard the word 'administration'
This doesn't surprise me, but none the less
I would never have missed their garish, tasteless window displays, or the cards themselves, but feel for the staff.

 

[Kanda]

Of course they'll fold, how the fuck are you supposed to get them in the envelope otherwise...

 

[biggus dickus]

This is worse than when Rennie Rapeze were declared insolvent

 

[biggus dickus]

or when Autoglass went broke

 

[biggus dickus]

or when Wonderbra went bust

 

[biggus dickus]

or all of the Woolworths closed because they were fucking shit

 

[Orang Utan]

Always astounded at how difficult it is find a non-hideous card in a card shop. Why is that?

[biggus dickus]

PC World shut down

Because you're going to the wrong shops

 

[yardbird]

I tend to make my own cards - much more personal.

In my high street there is a clingtons, a Card factory opened 2 doors away, the most expensive card there is about £2, you can get all your xmas cards and wrapping paper for a tenner. Clintons cannot compete. Is Birthdays affected too? They're part of Clintons I think

 

[yardbird]

Yes, Birthdays as well.

 

[Orang Utan]

Because you're going to the wrong shops

I do. I go to book shops. Maybe other people do and maybe that's why Clinton's are going bust.

 

[biggus dickus]

I've heard that Famous Grouse Whisky is on the rocks

 

[biggus dickus]

I would have thought it's just because people don't send cards as much anymore, or go to the high street

 

[biggus dickus]

I've heard that the errr high street belt shop is strapped for cash

 

[Kanda]

Clintons... Save your receivers' money by simply scribbling a P on your "45 Today" cards and giving them to your staff.

[claphamboy]

Yes, Birthdays as well.

They are not putting my birthday into fucking administration.

[Idaho]

There's rumours that Innocent drinks have gone into liquidation.

 

[Idaho]

[emanymton]

I do. I go to book shops. Maybe other people do and maybe that's why Clinton's are going bust.

Art galleries are good as well.

 

[biggus dickus]

Hovis are on the breadline
