$1.44 Days

Numerous items sold at a price of a dollar forty-four,
Lots of foot traffic, bargains all the more,
Dollar store stuff, never on sale before,
Numerous items sold at a price of a dollar forty-four.

Lots of foot traffic, bargains all the more,
Be sure to stop in at the Red Grille,
Numerous items sold at a price of a dollar forty-four,
Lots of foot traffic, bargains all the more.

Be sure to stop in at the Red Grille,
Competitor Eaton's running dollar forty-nine days still,
Lots of foot traffic, bargains all the more,
Be sure to stop in at the Red Grille.

Competitor Eaton's running dollar forty-nine days still,
But customers are loyal to Woolco, it is their will,
Be sure to stop in at the Red Grille,
Competitor Eaton's running dollar forty-nine days still.

Get a fountain drink and a grilled cheese sandwich,
Dollar store stuff, never on sale before,
First Tuesday of every month, at Woolco you save more,
Get a fountain drink and a grilled cheese sandwich.

Numerous items sold at a price of a dollar forty-four!

Who remembers Woolco's '$1.44 Days'?  It was a hit here in Canada for a while.
A 'Pantoum' style poem where I mixed it up a bit at the end.
