"I work at Big Y and I want to die."
"It's going to snow an inch or two tomorrow -- we need to go to Big Y and buy bread! We may be trapped in our house for days."
"Big Y sucks."
2.
A supermarket chain in Massachusetts and Connecticut which claims to provide 'world class service' and 'great deals'. Buy 1 get 2 free sales and 'rewards' coins get frugal thinking shoppers in the door, while charging out the ass for most products. While reaping the benefits of high prices, Big Y still manages to provide Wal-Mart level service and quality. Big Y CEO Don D'Amour once beat a cripple to death on the steps of a church with his own cane.
"Let's get some milk at big y, for $4.50 it must be good."
"I hear they use feral cats for hamburger meat at Big Y"
