Re: Grammar!

I absolutely hate when someone adds an "s" to the end of a store's name!

For instance, our local grocery store chain is called H.E.B.

I have heard people say, "I'm going to H.E.Bs."

Are they saying, "I am going to H.E.B.'s meat department, etc.?"

OR

Are they saying they are going to every single H.E.B. store in the state of Texas?!!!!!

What is up with adding the "s" at the end?

"I'm going to Walmarts."

Really? You are going to all of them?!!!!!!!
