Re: Another High Street Rebrand
I’m not convinced anyone actually bought pick n mix from Woolworths to be honest. It was just there. You'd be lucky to get a look in for a scoop in Nottingham on Saturdays or during half term, the place was always full of kids filling up cups on their way to the cinema and whatnot. Wilko was the sa...

Re: Another High Street Rebrand
Good luck to them, although German Woolies are a bit of a different beast to what UK customers were used to - I suppose closer to Home Bargains/B&M. Maybe that's what Woolies would be nowadays had they continued.

Re: Another High Street Rebrand
Several old packaging designs for Dairy Milk are coming back for a limited time in honour of Cadbury's 200th anniversary. Just in case you walk into the corner shop and think you've entered a timewarp... https://www.cadbury.co.uk/products/brands/cadbury-dairy-milk/ I feel as though this happens eve...

Re: Media Talk Forum Watch News and Information Board
People let themselves worry too much about The Clique sometimes around here, whereas it all really makes a lot more sense if you just condense down enough Kojak/Solari/Studio7/KatsKaravan/Latest-Username-This-Week posts on who is kissing up to who first into something simpler to read. To save every...

Re: Another High Street Rebrand
To add to the list of problems - I don't understand the logic in a stacked logo with a small WH and a big S if the name is just WHS now? Perhaps a separate experiment for a future rebrand of the remaining bigger stores as 'Big S'? Someone really wanted to use the name 'Big W' but found it had alrea...

Re: Another High Street Rebrand
With more of their big stores closing and Smiths only being interested in the small airport and train station outlets now, maybe the rebrand makes sense. They'll need the shorter name just to fit it on all those much smaller unit signs. I don't think this is a real problem they have. The limiting f...

Re: Another High Street Rebrand
Imagine going for a rebrand after all these years and not embracing the WHS cube logo. I’ve always thought it would do well for them in the same way it has worked for the Co Op. Let’s face it, they should play on their heritage because it certainly doesn’t compete on price. Agree completely. Open g...

It's not really an opinion. It's a statement that I don't understand who it's for and what need of those users it'd fill that isn't already met by Pres Cafe. There's no vacuum. ...

Re: Another High Street Rebrand
I like how many of the replies are genuinely thinking it's one of these fake shops who moves in after the real-deal pack up. Just awful really, what are they thinking? They want a logo which is vaguely evocative of both the NHS and the original Doctor Who logo, but doesn't owe anything to their own ...
