Town of 20k people, we had a wool shop... just sold wool only. Always thought it was a front, years later found out they won the lotto(2mil) blew it all keeping the wool shop open almost 10 years with zero customers lol
Hell yeah, now that's how you make good use of an unexpected influx of cash
You do have to admire that sort of commitment though.
Are you in Switzerland? Another commenter was mentioning a wool shop with no customers that seemed like a front, lol.
Like wool clothing or raw wool? I love wool clothing, but who has a use for raw wool?
People who make wool clothing!
I would have thought they meant finished yarn for knitters and crocheters (and likely accessories for knitting and crocheting.)
