Closed down or discontinued - what do you miss?

My local Oasis closed down before Christmas and I miss it so much! I've just been browsing their website and it's just not the same as seeing something on the hanger and thinking "ooh that's pretty!"
My favourite perfume and lipstick have been discontinued. I've been stockpiling thanks to ebay but they've been gone so long now I don't think I will get any more of either now. I won't look or smell the same soon Sad
What do you miss?
I fully expect this thread to be lots of people missing Woolworths and yes I still miss them too

Milk Tray bars-the same as the boxes.

The other firms did the same - quite a range of "bars" of boxes of chocolates at one time. We had a corner shop back in the 70s and I remember a few bars like that, pretty sure there was a Black Magic bar (or maybe it was Terrys All Gold) - certainly a dark chocolate bar of assorted chocolates.

Crabtree and Evelyn have ruined Christmas by discontinuing Noel candles.

There is now no point in Christmas. They are BASTARDS.

Yes to missing potato triangles/deltas. They were the best snack.

I miss Kew, Jigsaw’s cheaper chain. I had loads of nice things from Kew.

Just remembered the most delicious cadbury's chocolate mousse/trifle dessert. It was in a small tub in the supermarket, you'd buy two in a pack.
Choc sponge, choc sauce, dark chocolate mousse, milk chocolate mousse and little choc drops on top. I have never tasted anything as delicious

Also miss: getting up without clicking, being thinner and sleep.
