Ames mentioned in movies/TV

The only reference I know of to Ames in pop culture is in the movie The Perfect Storm... one of the wives bought children's shoes at Ames.

Any others?

The Ames in Gloucester was pretty cramped, but they did a very good business.  It was one of the stronger stores on the North Shore.

In reality, it was his ex-wife, I think they were separated or divorced. She worked in the domestics/crafts dept. in the Gloucester store. Store 0217. It was one of the smaller stores, but did great business.
