The long closed Kwik Save store on Heaton Road in Byker. The building still retains most of its branding including the slogan "Britain's No. 1 food discounter". Unfortunately even if this was true it didn't help the business survive in the 21st century, as after various changes in ownership the chain finally collapsed all its stores closed in 2007.
