“Alliterate or die!” That was a poster a former colleague saw pasted to a newsroom wall. Alliteration’s power to make words stick owes itself to the repetition of sounds. It’s something a lot of jewelers already know, hence “Wine Wednesdays” at Erik Runyan Jewelers in Vancouver, WA, or “Free Cleaning Friday” and “Saturday Style” at Fakier Jewelers in Houma, LA. Manic Mondays, Too Good to be True Tuesdays, Fried Food Fridays … once you get started using alliteration to jazz up your work week, it’s really hard to stop.
