It's called "know your audience"

We were out shopping this morning (Grandma and Opa decided that Shoshanna needed a new coloring book, so we hit Target - coming home with new Dora and Wiggles coloring books) and then we walked over to Party City to see if they had any fun cheapo dressup stuff left over from Halloween.  Anyway, that's not my point.

My point is, between Target and Party City we walked by Lane Bryant.  Which was having some big sale, and was treating customers with donut holes.

We all boggled a bit.

I'm not sure I understand — why the boggling?

Well, the thought process kind of went...
"free donut holes at a plus size store"
"ummmm"
"well, I suppose that does guarantee a continuing customer base."

Oh. But...donuts don't make people fat, though, and avoiding them doesn't make people thin...

of course it's not that simple, but you're waaaay overthinking this. ;^)

Since they never offer food (or anything that suggests that people eat) at Abercrombie and Finch.
