Woolworths opens to much fanfare
It’s now down to the business of shopping after hundreds gathered for the opening of Taupō’s new Woolworths on Thursday last week, nearly 64 years after the original Woolworths Taupō store opened.
Something old, something new
Opening today, the rebuilt Woolworths Taupō Central store on the corner of Spa Road and Tongariro Street may be new from the ground up but on one wall there is still a piece of the store’s 64-year history.
Love and money in the aisles
Romance and finance have both blossomed for a young couple who work at Taupō Pak’nSave.
