Anybody read The Pioneer Woman? You'll recognize this:

The Wall Marts

or the Vall Maarts.....

[tessa.]

We always say Wal-fart...
Also Chuck E Cheese is the big rat
I think all my other nicknames have been on the list. This has been a fun one to read!

I forgot all about "Pizza slut"! When our girls were young and they wanted pizza, they always said "Let's put, put, put to the Pizza Slut! Classy talk for grade schoolers - who is their mother - lol?
I was in Home Depot today and when I told my DH what I had found I heard myself say: "Home De-"pot". We started calling it that after the news story a few years ago when someone actually used a showroom toilet for real! Does anybody remember that? Too funny!
This has been a really fun thread to keep track of!

When my sons were teenagers, they called Jack in the Box, gag in a sack. They apparently didn't like it but it's one of my favorites.

Jack in the Box - Jack in the crack

JC Penny's - Jacque Pen-nay

Wimpeys could be from the Popey comic strip - the moocher character was always tring to get someone to buy him a burger and he would say "I'll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today'.

Nordstroms - Nordies

When I'm heading out to go stamp shoping I tell DH I'm running errands and he rolls his eyes because he knows where I'm really going. I thought if my dreaam of owning a stamp store ever came true I'd call it "Errands". Then my customers wouln't be lying if they said they were doing "errands."

Depending on where Target is located, it's either called tar-jhay' or tar-ghetto.

Stamphappy1650: I love the story of "running errands". That's classic. Too darn funny! Here's to your dream store!
