Kiama Woolworths has successfully reopened its doors as planned despite the store still resembling a construction site. The Bugle team visited the store this morning to assess the changes and was pleased with the interior upgrades. While minor layout adjustments have been implemented, the overall shopping experience has received positive feedback.

Friendly and accommodating staff welcomed shoppers back into the refreshed store.

In an effort to entice customers, Woolworths shared a special offer on the Kiama Community Facebook page: receive a $15 discount (barcode) when you spend over $100 in a single visit, valid from Wednesday, 13 September to Tuesday 2 October.

"I'm relieved to see the supermarket reopen," exclaimed one elderly resident.

"Having to travel to Shellharbour was inconvenient for many of the people I know, so this is a much-welcomed return."
