Meijer markets to Wolverines
I saw this in the Meijer sale flyer this week.
Do you think the Ad agency found a good model?

Kids everywhere in Florida will run running, shoelaces untied, to Meijer to get their Michigan shirts!

good idea, except there aren't any meijers in florida.. lol..
It is a midwest store, you don't travel much do you?

I think he was being sarcastic. I believe most people know there aren't any Meijers outside of the Michigan/Ohio area.

yea well tough to tell with some of the crowd on this site.. you never know..

I feel like its a common practice to call Meijer, Meijers. I know I do it all the time.
Does it say meijer, or do you have to read it?
Alllllll riiiight
I think it may be a Michigan thing....But some people work at Ford's, shop at Meijer's and K-mart's (although I think K's Mart would be more proper)....
We definitely say Meijer's in Ohio too. I'm just more accustomed to Meijer. K's-Mart though, never heard of that one before :-)
I've never heard it before either but it would be more proper as the K stands for Kresge....So it would be Kresge's Mart or K's Mart....

It's Thrifty Acres. Anyone over...uh...thirtysomething knows that.
Or Shifty Takers as some people I knew called it....
"Thrifty Acres"--wow, that fires up the time machine.
I think there are a few in Indiana and Illinois as well.
They're in Kentucky as well.

Thanks.

if that was intentional or just by chance. I'm sure they had the guy modeling lots of other clothes that day too, but SOMEBODY decided to put him in that shirt.

Is it just me or does that left knee look different from the other?
February 28th, 2011 at 11:34 PM ^
It's just you.
