.......Ok....I'm done now lol

I saw a display of these the other night at WalMart and there weren't many left. The few that were there had all been opened & used or broken. As a matter of fact, a LOT of their makeup was destroyed. I feel like this is unique to WalMart as I have never seen anywhere near as much used/broken makeup at Target or any drugstores. WTF is wrong people?!

Hate to say it, but you're right. I went to two big Walmarts thinking that they'd have a large selection and one was even a decent looking fancier Walmart, but no dice...all of the lipsticks were in ruins. KROGERS is the place I'm quite happy with now, if I can't make my Ulta run!

Just placed an order with pacifica, had some coupon codes so i got a huge discount. Ive been wanting to try their solid perfumes so i ordered like 10 of the samples, got one for free, and an island coconut body butter on sale right now, and got a free lip quench in sugared fig for an order over 25, and then had my ipsy code for 20% off...so after shipping i only ended up paying 25 for about 40 worth of products.awesome....now i have a pending order to place with urban decay for more liner and shadow, and i have an order to place for the opi pussy galore polish, china glaze bump and grind, some seche vite top coat and a dotting tool kit and i will be done.

My wally world actually isnt bad with that, they dont restock though, they have been low on cosmetics for about a month and a half now...i was in target yesterday and was really surprised to see a huge display just utterly destroyed. Made me so sad to see so much product just broken up like that. But they were having a huge clearance sale on opi polishes and sally hanson polishes so it wasnt a total loss of a trip

I know some people who add a S to Kmart and Walmart. Now THAT drives me crazy.  A lot of people say Meijers instead of Meijer. I feel like its a Midwest thing.

I've always said Kroger's.  In the same way I say Kohl's, Macy's, or any other store that actually puts the possessive in the name.  It's a colloquial thing, so I don't let it bother me either way. (although my husband always throws a 10-minute fit when his grandma tells him she's "going to the Walmart's")

To each their own 

  (although everyone knows the correct pronunciation of Target is the classier French version... Tar-JHAY!)

For the longest time, I thought the name of the store was actually Nordstroms.  I had never heard it said any other way.

Let's see...Krogers, JC Penney's, Macy's, Kohl's, Randalls, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, Marshalls, Dillards.......I have a feeling that my city is just USED to adding an "S" to the end of most of our chain stores! lol The only ones we don't do are Walmart, Target (yes, yes, indeed, Tar-jhay!), HEB and a few others!

 

[lissa1307]

ok, i decided to put off  my online orders,except the pacifica one i already placed...but i ended up at sephora, hitting the sales, got a nice shadow, an eyeliner, and a nail polish...then i hit claire's...they had a 10 for 10 sale so i got a bunch of earrings and necklaces mostly for my daughter, then off to icing, and a bogo 1/2 off on cosmetics so another new shadow trio and a lip tint, and a polish that is really close to bump and grind, just more neon in color, and a light blue liquid sand with sparkle...and a 5 for 5 on polishes....and another 15 polishes came home with me...eek,lol. Warning: polish porn ahead.lol

Lol! I think it is a colloquial thing. I always try so hard not to add the "s" at the end but sometimes I do.

I had no idea Target was pronounced that way until recently when I heard someone say Tar-zhay on YouTube. 

 

[CheshireCookie]

OMG my hubby just said something that totally made complete sense regarding this matter lol ....they're proper names! Like Kroger's (named after a man named Kroger), Walgreen's (same thing), etc! You wouldn't say "I'm going to Sally." You'd say Sally's! lol This is why I keep this man around lol Back on topic now! I just bought 5 makeup brushes from Coastal Scents! They're having a sale and a girl's gotta have some brushes...mmmhmmm lol

 

[katlyne]

Lol. Its not pronounced tar-zhey its tar-get. That's why their logo is a target... people are just being silly.

Well. 1 all store names are proper nouns. And 2. Sally's beauty supply legit has an apostrophe. So of course you wouldn't leave it out. Sorry. Not tryna start anything. <3

Well, actually, no. It's just Sally Beauty Supply. http://www.sallybeauty.com/ I grew up in the land of a chain called Fred Meyer. We call it Freddy's. It's even part of their slogan: "You'll find it at Freddy's."

It's actually an old ad campaign of theirs (from the 90s? Maybe?) where they had all these fantastically campy commercials about how classy and upscale they were now, so they wanted you to call the store tar-jhay instead of Target (it's a bastardized French pronunciation).  My mom and I loved them, and still call the store Tar-jhay.  

I tried finding an old commercial on YouTube, but was unsuccessful.  Here's a link to Urban Dictionary, though:
