Quote from pleezletmenap : Hello everybody!! Been forever since I've popped in. Want to share a deal. For those of you close to Market Basket in Manchester (on Elm Street), they have Cheese Nips FREE with in store coupon. No limit. Also, Chips Ahoy cookies and Ritz crackers (small box) for 50 cents after in store coupon. No limit. Not sure if this is a new store, grand opening offer limited to just this location. There was also a deal on Pop Tarts ($1 a box, I think?). But I didn't really pay attention to that offer.

Wow what a great deal, wish we had that here.

did you see today's Shoe comic strip ? It speaks directly to us all !!!!

edited to add: it's the May 3rd comic that i was speaking of -you will have to scroll back to see it now !

Just a heads up I just went to walmart for dog food and was browsing the store. I got some great deals on clearance kids clothes.
Boys 4-16 sizes thermal long sleeves $2 clearance (had sweats for $3 but i hate elastic bottoms)
Girls 4-16 sizes, Tons of plain long sleeves $1 each, tshirts $2 each, and LOTS of velour and track pants for $1 each!!! I also got a pair of jeans $1 and a few $3 pairs of LEI jeans for her too.

I bought my daughter the pants in 6/6x (which she is just in) and the next size 7/8 OMG 7/8 is so big!! I cant believe in not that long she will wear these. I figure at $1 each I will kick myself if I didnt buy them and put in the back of her closet.

Oh nice just went to print some coupons. com coupons from swagbucks and its 2x rewards this month, I hope there is a bunch I use this month!!

Can anyone help me figure what I'm doing wrong here.......I've tried printing qs from the Smartsource site on several occasions, and always get the "you must get Java" in order to print message. But I think I already have Java, lol. When I click on tools and options, the "enable Javascript" option is already checked off. I tried downloading Java again, and nothing changes, so I already have it, right? gah

I'm sorry, I don't know the answer to your specific question, but have you tried using another browser? I get the same message and can't print smartsource coupons from IE, but it works fine in Firefox.

Here ya go -

Kohl's

I have to say Hannaford's parent (Delhaize) stock is a slickdeal with how the day went with earnings. Sure, there are issues (obviously), but when you run the numbers (and run them conservatively) it still is a reasonable deal as I think they'll come in at around $4.50 for this year per share in earnings even after I heard them report. With that against a $42 stock price is not a bad deal with price to earnings below 10. I think price competition overall is lighting up more broadly amongst different stores (definitely see that locally). Seeing the aggressiveness of S&S for as long as they have been aggressive in my area (and they still are) is actually quite impressive, especially now that they have weekly $5/50s in my area instead of 200 bonus gas points wyb $50 albeit they seem to be taking their foot off the gas pedal in terms of really low priced specials (but on the whole, it may be just getting a slight touch if anything). Sure, Market Basket is a factor underlying in the stock, but when even weighing the stores that compete, it is a smaller problem for them vs what Walmart and wholesale clubs as well as TJs pose. In fact, Market Basket and Hannaford ends up being about the same price for what I buy at a conventional supermarket these days (but I do buy most of what I need from TJ's and Sam's) with how Hannaford has lowered prices in produce (and to my knowledge, this is now everywhere in which they have a location a few miles from a MB). Though, it does seem that some of the weakness is temporary due to development investments of their new Bottom Dollar stores which I would describe as being the size and selection of Trader Joes but the same quality available at the conventional supermarkets.

And to give TJ's a line, their new iced tea is really good. It is unsweetened and sells at $3.99/gal. Of course, the best part is no HFCS (and that's why the only iced tea I like outside of TJ's is Honest Tea, and hence, it is a deal in my eyes; I'll add Lipton Pureleaf is OK too but too expensive to buy to drink at home). If you want it sweetened, add some sugar yourself. And if you're looking for something with a bit more "punch" consider their pomegranate limeade at $2.69/half gal.

And for those of us that are close enough to Nashua, the word is now that the Tyngsboro store is moving down the street on DWH approximately late July (and thus adding beer and wine; there's rumors going around about hard liquor but I'll have to see that to believe it).

Step 1 - download java http://java.com/en/download/index.jsp
Step 2 - double click the file in the downloads tab to run
Step 3 - unclick the download ask tool bar - don't need it
Step 4 - after java completes - close all firefox windows
Step 5 - restart firefox - it will ask to load add-n - click the box - ok - it wil;l; restart firefox again.
Step 6 - try smartsource print again. You will get a security page - select run - always trust this site.
Step 7 - it will process for 20 seconds or so then it should print

WOW ! Take a look at this Hall of Shame List - nothing's a deal if it's toxic to your health !!
