Bad Time for a Blow Out Sale?

While black background/brightly lettered signs on the city’s roadsides aim to attract bargain hunters, the location and timing of a clearance sale announcement we discovered two nights ago may strike some as questionable—Wilson Avenue at Murray Road, directly south of the Sunrise Propane explosion site.

    Could have been worse. I wonder if some of the prices there are a “steal”.

  • Gloria

    Awwwwwkward.

  • antiboy

    An “Excitement” Sale!

    Uhm, explosive couture?

    Shock(wave)ing savings!

    I live a couple blocks away – this place almost always has some similar “sale” signage there.
    IMHO? This post is in bad taste.

    buh dum pssh! (sorry I had to)
    I always thought the funniest was the Candle Factory Outlet on Hwy 11 on the way to Muskoka that routinely has a “Blow Out Sale”

    When does anyone use “blow out” to mean explosion, other than for a tire?
