Not really apprentices but here's some we've played on the work-experience kids or the xmas temps in a department store: Bags for a dyson hoover :~ (the poor lad actually spent 20 minutes looking for these till the manager found him and asked what he was doing, told him and the manager helped him look too for about 10 mins until he realised it was a wind up !!) ink cartridges for the till receipt printer :~ doesn't use ink, it's thermolytic paper ! sky hooks :~ for putting up hanging banners new beeps for the security gates ! cruel, but if anyone has any more for use in retail i'd love to try some!!

Thanks for those replies! anyone know when the place was split into two shops? i allready know the why, both woolies and superdrug were owned by the kingfisher group, even though wollies is no longer a part of kingfisher you can still see in many towns and citys the superdrug is still in the same building as woolies!, Any other memories/comments/bits of info would be greatfully recieved Cheers!

Anybody know anything of the history of woolworths in sheffield? I know the store in haymarket was bombed out during the war and a new store was built, is this the one that is still on the moor today?? or was there another store in the city? Also interested to hear stories of anyone who used to work there and hear memories of what the store on the moor used to be like (when it still included what is now superdrug, and after the place was divided in two) Any photos of the building/staff/interior would be interesting too..... Hope someone out there can help!!!! Sheff-lad
