[Ads-l] "Drop"

[Jonathan Lighter]

To release to the public; announce.

I've been seeing and hearing this a whole lot in the past few months .

Walmart just dropped 50+ incredible early Memorial Day deals, starting at

Old people will think this means Walmart rescinded those deals, but they'd
be wrong.
