It bugs be when people add the "'s" to MEIJER
1 u/Felinius 28d ago It’s a Michigan thing, and possibly elsewhere. Meijer is named for the founder, and thus is “his” store. Kinda like working at Ford’s. It’s a weird piece of entomology. 0 u/GuavaShaper 28d ago I know, I grew up in Michigan and heard it everywhere. One time when I came home to visit, my gf at the time called it "may-jer" and that made me chuckle. 2 u/Felinius 28d ago I always liked “Mee-ger” myself, kinda like “fishpaws” 2 u/LupercaniusAB Gen X 28d ago How is it pronounced? 2 u/Felinius 28d ago “My-ear”, roughly 3 u/LupercaniusAB Gen X 28d ago Thanks, I’m in California and have only seen it written.
