What? No “Varietie’s” or “Variety’s”?
Here’s a question for you — here in Cincinnati, where Kroger is based, everyone calls it “Kroger’s.”
I find this maddening. I grew up in Cleveland, where the dominant grocery chain is Giant Eagle, but nobody called it “Giant Eagle’s.” I’ve also noticed this with Meijer/Meijer’s in Michigan and Piggly Wiggly/Wiggly’s in the South. What gives?
Yeah, I don’t go to Target’s or Wal-Mart’s. I do however, shop at Macy’s.
Right Store. Right Price. Wrong Grammar.
