Are there different pronouciationspronunciations for 'Merci'‘Merci’ ?

I know merci is thank you but I have definitely heard some French people say (phonetically) mercish (i.e with a shesh on the end of merci). I have asked people about this and they seem to deny it! Is it just a dialect? I have heard it both in Northern France and down in the SW. Anybody else know of this?
