Thanks for the final explanation,http://www.englishforums.com/English/StopNSave/qmqr/post.htm#82543Sun, 22 Feb 2009 21:28:37 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:82543hbae7871http://www.englishforums.com/English/StopNSave/qmqr/post.htm#82543http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments29-82543.xmlStop 'n Save is a national chain store. It could be a convenient store in your neighborhood, a little shop along a highway or a sizeable supermaket in a city. However you should not take a business literally by its name because there's no guarantee that you'll save any, just as with stores with names like Pick 'N Save, Discount Tires, Budget Rent-A-Car, or Super Thrift Store etc.http://www.englishforums.com/English/StopNSave/qmqr/post.htm#82540Thu, 22 Jan 2009 21:28:37 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:82540Antonia2http://www.englishforums.com/English/StopNSave/qmqr/post.htm#82540http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments29-82540.xmlOk, thank youhttp://www.englishforums.com/English/StopNSave/qmqr/post.htm#82528Sun, 22 Feb 2009 21:28:37 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:82528pieanne3http://www.englishforums.com/English/StopNSave/qmqr/post.htm#82528http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments29-82528.xmlI think the name simply means: "STOP (buy) HERE AND SAVE (money)"http://www.englishforums.com/English/StopNSave/qmqr/post.htm#82526Fri, 22 May 2009 20:28:37 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:82526Antonia4http://www.englishforums.com/English/StopNSave/qmqr/post.htm#82526http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments29-82526.xmlI'm not sure, perhaps it is a shop near highways, hence the expression 'STOP and save' But not necessarily, it could also be some local shop. I guess, the bottom line is that it is a shop where you can find goods at very low prices. Ok, thank you p.s. I'm not a native speaker too, nor have I ever seen a Stop and Savehttp://www.englishforums.com/English/StopNSave/qmqr/post.htm#82517Wed, 22 Apr 2009 20:28:37 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:82517pieanne5http://www.englishforums.com/English/StopNSave/qmqr/post.htm#82517http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments29-82517.xmlYou mean a bit isolated? Well, I guess you may find some out of the city, but I'd say you'll find many maybe not right downtown (they're not flashy enough), but in "less wealthy" (if I may say so) parts of towns.http://www.englishforums.com/English/StopNSave/qmqr/post.htm#82503Sun, 22 Mar 2009 21:28:37 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:82503Antonia6http://www.englishforums.com/English/StopNSave/qmqr/post.htm#82503http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments29-82503.xmlThank you I got an impression that it is a shop by the road?http://www.englishforums.com/English/StopNSave/qmqr/post.htm#82351Fri, 22 May 2009 20:28:37 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:82351pieanne7http://www.englishforums.com/English/StopNSave/qmqr/post.htm#82351http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments29-82351.xmlHello!
