Surprised that my local one in Hemel Hempstead isn't on the list - I went in yesterday, and the shelves were three-quarters empty, and what little stock was left was being flogged off dirt-cheap.

There are five Wilkos in Bristol. That list only has one of them on it.

My nearest, in St Albans, also not on the list.

But it is just like the shop in Hemel with 'everything' must go - not that there was much of anything left.
