You're mom would be right. A nice Eaton's store wasn't Macy's but would pretend to be.
I have mixed feelings about the Bay/Zellars/Target thing. I love the Bay, and from what I've seen of Target (and Super Target - I went to one in Cedar Rapids, Iowa) it's not the same level. But I like Target. It's better than Walmart, but won't have the charm Zellars. Why couldn't they have bought out Giant Tiger? I hate that store.
