and co-op? Bit chavvy I'm afraid. My ds are Fortnum and Maison and there's my little dd Waitrose.

Poundstretcher is a lovely name for a girl

Why do they both have cheap shop connotations? Sorry but Ratner reminds me of Gerald Ratner and Spar in a convenience store

endymion · 12/06/2008 13:12

Makes me think of cheap jewellery a la Gerald Ratner.

Or a rat.

Spar - well it's a shop, isn't it?

pagwatch · 12/06/2008 13:12

Sainsbury?
Debenham?
Mark?
Spencer?

CountessDracula · 12/06/2008 13:12

Is this a joke?

Are you thinking of crap shop names?

How about Greggs
or Primark

Shitemum · 12/06/2008 13:12

'Tesco' is nice

oh, do you have Spar supermarkets in the UK?

EffiePerine · 12/06/2008 13:12

DS was called Costcutter for a while

Ratner?

How did you come to make that up?

Because tbh, it sounds made up.
