Have you seen their latest TV spot? The one in which some dedicated shopper with pageant hair reassures us that prices at Stein Mart are so low we won’t have to (and I quote) HIDE OUR PURCHASES FROM OUR HUSBANDS?
No, seriously!!! We can show them the tacky crap we’ve bought without fear of, I don’t know, a stern talking-to!!! Or, um, being grounded!!! Or something equally inappropriate and infantile!!!
Because, apparently, it’s 1954, and we’re all Lucy fucking Ricardo.
SinPantalones in a post titled Since I’ve never cared for be-sequinned holiday sweatshirts and ugly shoes, I’ve never been a big fan of Stein Mart.
Some of my cycling teammates, and I won’t mention names; often try to hide their new and expensive parts from their wives. We aren’t talking tacky crap, more like $2500 wheelsets and the like.
One of my buds has two daughters (10 & 11) who are successful racers and triathletes that usually blow it for him. “Hey cool wheels daddy, when did you get those?”
I just lie about it. “How much are they?” “Ah, $300… yeah that’s it.”
I would never have caught that typo if it weren’t for you! Thanks 😉
I’ve fixed it the right way this time, Elise.
