Perhaps it's OVERPRICED choccy going out of fashion?
hello red :-)

didn't like their chocs but I feel sorry for anyone who is set to lose their jobs
I would imagine keeping all the retail stores open must cost a fortune, people are not buying extravagant stuff anymore I suppose..sad yep
Afternoon Red - Choccy will neve go out of fashion in my house - my favourites are Giant Cadbury Buttons and Galaxy.

I also don't like Thorntons, Joy - they are too sickly.

That is the downside of it all Bobbi, Job loss after Job loss.
Maybe they are overpriced but they do make nice Chocs gingejbee !
Hope you enjoyed your Hols Bobbi and come back refreshed !! :-))
They are closing many High Street stores...........but look set to open about an equal number in the 'edge-of-town' multi-store sites...........
You can buy Thorntons chocs in supermarkets too.

Hi DEN !
Hope you are well also and keeping those workmen at Bay ! Are they still hiding down that hole in the road ? ha ha
Mamy - they also sell Thorntons on QVC the shopping TV channel. (:o)
Mother's Day won't be the same..............
They are closing stores THEY own but hoping to convert the stores into frachises that people run on their behalf.

So it is just a change in company direction, and many of the stores may stay open (worker buy out?).

Well here we go again. (re Lidls)

Thorntons chocolate is vastly overrated and over priced.
They don't even have the variety they used to have.

The Plantation chocolate sold in Lidls at 99p for a large bar is far superior, and acknowledged by the experts to be so.
