"Honest" Ed's


Pandora spotted this at Honest Ed's Store, a landmark in Toronto. the high number of superfluous quotation marks makes me start to doubt Ed's honesty. Pandora also offers this comment: "What, you mean, pretend to buy something? Um... OK? Or maybe they mean, "buy" it... with your five-finger discount, nudge, nudge."

  1. Ah, Honest Ed's! Now that's a fun place. Just wanted to say that Ed was one of the kindest, most generous people around. He'd probably have gotten a kick out of seeing this picture here.

  2. If nothing is ever "regular price" then wouldn't the non-regular prices then be common place and thus "regular"?

  4. "You will never pay regular price for anything" ... just use the five finger "discount" to "buy something."
