Hi trying to find some Woolworths ols store pictures,and came across this site ,that has an interactive site,so you can revisit the past,.....
I haven't found the Montreal area stores (Yet),.....but this one does have some readily recognizable shots,......of the product counters,.Remember those flat bin like counters? .................(you probably stole something out of one..........hahahaha)
anyway here's the link ,.check it out if you like:

Travel back in time,..and try to Remember walking on that 'creaky old wooden floor'...............hahahahaha      the snack counter onthis site looks different from the counter at the store on Wellington,.....but it's still neat to see..................................
