    TOHIGHSCHOOLGUY:

    Are you Jewish? Whoever heard of a Yid that doesn’t know of SYMS!?

    (Unless you never spent time in the Eastern United States. Then it is a forgivable offense.)

    TORAH, intellegent-

    A large clothing store with many branches on the east coast. They carry good quality name brand clothes and have cheap prices. Twice yearly they have a huge sale called the ‘Syms Bash’ (note my post above explaining why its called that). Since prices are slashed so drasticly for those 2 weeks, the stores are usually packed with Frum people. Btw, the owner is a Yid- Sy Syms.

    OOOOOOOh! The store that is pronounced “sims”? I thought it’s some kind of organization S.Y.M.S that stands for something. Of course I’ve heard of it.

    Begging tommorow Yidden from all over America will begin to be “Oleh Regel” to a Syms nearby.

    It is a true Kiddush Hashem and a sight to behold!

    smartcookie, I’l try to find the Rashi for you. I think its in Bereishis.

    From the best of my memory (translated):

    ”It is a chiyuv mdaraisa for all Yidden in galus to be Oleh Regel to Syms twice a year. This chiyuv is fulfilled during the Bash. When the 3rd Beis Hamikdash is built, this chiyuv will no longer apply, and to Yerushalayim shall we go.”

    JOSEPH- I dont take this as funny. Dont mix Rashis about the Bais Hamikdosh into this concoction.I take Yerushalayim and Moshiach very seriously.

    Joseph, it’s not a Rashi. It’s written next to two other mitzvos – the mitzva to have pizza on motzei Pesach, and the mitzva to go to a concert on motzei Shabbos Nachamu.

    feif un,

    I hope you don’t mind if I play Joseph for second. (Joseph I hope you don’t mind either)….

    how dare you compare the heilige syms which has separate sections for men and women (‘s clothing) to treif mixed hangouts such as concerts and pizza shops???

    I’ve been living on the East Coast for over 40 years and I couldn’t figure out for the life of me what SYMS stood for. I thougnt it was some kind of roshei tavos. Maybe if they wrote it Syms instead of SYMS more people would “get it”.

    We try to patronize the frum stores exclusively. It’s worth the extra money not to be bombarded by all the pritzus.

    Charlie,

    I must acknowledge my mistake. You speak true words of wisdom. And I shall repent and correct my errant ways.

    Yasher Koach!

    Will Syms be open on Thursday, even though it’s a holiday, since it’s in middle of the Bash? Will the Wednesday or Friday hours be affected?

    On YW we bash each other all year round, and it’s free. I think that is a better deal.
