Stationer's
"go to a stationer's, butcher's"
"go to the stationer's, butcher's"
I usually hear people say 'go to the stationer's, butcher's so I was wondering if you also say 'go to a stationer's, butcher's or only when you include the word 'shop'?
It's a stupid question but I'm curious.
Thank you.

go to the stationer's, butcher's Just saying this is fine, without adding 'shop'. But in my experience in Canada, such stores are almost extinct. We go to the supermarket to buy most food.

- The only stationer's I know is a big store that is part of a big chain of stores, and I refer to it by name.

Yes. Both are possible. You don't need 'shop'.
