I always wandered why that store had that name ... a mix of Tj maxx, Zayre, Kmart ...what is your idea on what the authors meant with that scene ?
and there's the small sign saying:
Dressing Rooms across street in Gorham Bldg. :P
Heh. I was just thinking about that a few days ago..I believe that episode was made int eh early 90's...after Zayre was gone. Very strange though.
(There is also an episode of The Simpsons when Bart raddles of a list of stores like a witch's spell (one of the halloween episodes), does anyone know which one this is?)
Bart (chanting from the spellbook): Cullen, Rayburn, Nars, Trebek...Zabars, Kresge, Caldor, Wal-Mart.

i was watching the Simpsons last week and Homer was reading a book called Montgomery Warden and it looked just like the Montgomery Ward logo they used in the early 90's
I noticed that too !! It's a mix between Montgomery Ward and Montgomery Burns Warden of the prison.
Here's a blurry picture:

yep that was the one
If you listen to the commentary on the episode from the 7th season set, one of the writers was from Hyannis and there was a Zayre there as he was growing up. So he included Marge and Lisa shopping in a Zayre type of store for clothes.
A close up of the Catalog
Looks a lot like that logo of Wards...

Bart Simpson din't say "Zabars" he siad "Zayre" before he siad Kresge, Caldor, Wal-Mart and i'm surprised that Kresge (now known as K-Mart) and Caldor were mention on The Simpsons.
Also I think Tee Jay's Zay Mart might be a parody on T.J. Maxx and K-Mart.

He did say Zabar's. I saw the episode. If you don't believe me or anyone else on here, just go back and watch the episode.
Here is the Zabar's Wikipedia article:

I think that "Tee Jay's Zay Mart" is combo parody on T.J. Maxx, Zayre, and K-Mart according to the name!
