Store's like Macy's have higher quality requirements and pay more. Thus, they get better quality !! of the same brand.

No company intentionally !!s up cloths. However you are right when you said the stitching might be off(not done purposely but mistakes happen and thats a nice way to make profit on clothing that might have a small error, as oppose to throwing it away), but the error is so small that it's not visible to the normal eye. On top of that, majority of their cloths come from over production more so than bad stitching. A lot of name brand cloths will consistently !! up on over producing certain shirts or jeans, they think will sell more than what it usually does.

^When you see a thousand of the same shirts and jeans in just different sizes, thats usually a clear indication of overproduction, not a company doing it purposely.

That line made no sense. He knows he was shopping at TJ Maxx way after when Dame and Biggs were subsidizing his living. To think, homeboy was the original Memphis Bleek before he took the game over [pic]

the reference is that before he was super rich he shopped at tj maxx. thats free publicity for them, just the fact this thread exists. someone got a bonus for being aware within 5 hours or whatever they said.

I read that it was founded in 76 and the first store opened in 1994 smh. Damn Google you failed me?
