HMV Kidderminster

So I mentioned a while ago on the WFA what Kidderminster needed and mentioned a HMV or the like... so when did an HMV open In Kidderminster? It's hidden behind the stalls on a Saturday opposite the exit from the Roland Hill Centre. It's a bit cramped, not helped by a 'let's put a board and a end-aisle stack next to the only entrance/exit' style. But hey HMV way to go!

Any idea when they opened? I've already talked with a few friends who were surprised to find it.

Apparently there was an advert in the Shuttle at some point, but I don't recall seeing it.

Ah, here's the story;

I didn't know it was there until a couple of weekends ago but it looks like it's been there for a month possibly!

Well I can't find an advert in the Shuttle, but I now realise why someone thought they'd seen it there.

Here's how the Shuttle let us know about it. Keep reading, no keep going, there you go the last two paragraphs of a vaguely related story.

Rumour is that it's closing today.

It was open Friday the 14th and was closed on Saturday the 15th. Which makes me go "Um?" Who shuts down on a Saturday. Staff were all present and clearing shelves so why not just pay a touch of overtime and get it done on Sunday I'd bet the money made on that one day would more than make up for any costs.
