Pardon My Frenchy’s is a definitive relationship manual for all those who haunt Frenchy’s, Value Village, The Sally Ann and the hundreds of used clothing stores at the Maritimes. Unlike a how-to book, Pardon My Frenchy’s is what-to-do compendium of ideas, quizzes, games and stories all aimed at keeping the Frenchy’s fires burning, the used clothing passion alive and the superbargain excitement as high as it was during that first root in the bins. 

The book is like a dose of good old-fashioned relationship counseling, helping Frenchy’s fans rekindle the romance with their favourite stores. It addresses some of these burning questions. Do you still feel that tingle of anticipation as your eyes sweep the bins? Does a superbargain find still make your heart beat faster? And, the ultimate relationship question: do you find yourself casting a roving eye on Wal-Mart or The Bay?

Readers of Pardon My Frenchy’s can rely on a wealth of ideas such as Six Bring-Back-the-Thrill Techniques, Ten Surefire Ways to Pull Out all the Stops, Four Ideas to Put You in the Frenchy’s Mood, Three Ways to Add Zest to the Experience, Four Tips for Initiation Virgin Frenchy’s Shoppers, plus the Ultimate Definitive State-of-the-Art Frenchy’s Self Quiz. There’s even a Frenchy’s song lyrics that are perfect for a shopping crawl with the gang.
