Last weekend of trading for dozen TJs stores
Ernst & Young has announced further store closures including Bootle, Warrington and Oldham at the Liverpool-based discount retailer currently in administration.
Tom Jack, joint administrator, said: "A purchaser for these stores was not found, and regrettably we have had to schedule the store closures. We are extremely grateful to the employees and management at all the group's stores for their loyalty and support during this very difficult time.
"We are keen to stress that those stores unaffected by these closures will continue to trade for the time being" he concluded.

A very sad day for me! Will seriously miss this store! Great institution! No Ethel Austin, no TJ Hughes, no Lewis’s. Very sad!
