Dear Customers, There’s really no point in talking about Valentine’s Day – today.  If you haven’t already picked up some flowers and a card, you’re really skating on thin ice.  You’re the kind of guy that buys his Christmas presents at the gas station – on Christmas Eve!  We probably still have some inventory available…

Dear Customers, It’s been quite a while, several months in fact, since we’ve had an IN-STORE Meat Bonanza.  We have, however, had a few that were posted on our FACEBOOK page and these work well – except for those customers who don’t navigate and personal computer all that well.  This month is an excellent time…

Dear Customers, The practice of dividing the year into 12 months was ordered by Julius Caesar in 45 BC because they coincided with the 12 lunar cycles.  Of those 12 months, we just finished my least favorite; January!  I’m not completely sure why, but I would think it has something to do with the post-Christmas…

Dear Customers, On the ledge above my desk, sits a clock, a gift from Bill Jones who used to own the Moneysaver.  On the front there’s a little plaque that reads “A NEW BEGINNING MARCH 5, 2003”.  I glance at the time multiple times every day and it’s also how I remember when we moved…

Dear Customers, We’re halfway through January already, which means only 19 more weeks still Memorial Day!  That’s a bit optimistic, even for me! The truth is we have quite a bit of Winter to slog through and most of the Spring as well before we reach that milestone. Instead, we’re hunkering down and making ourselves…

Dear Customers, As we venture into the New Year, there are literally no breaks of a holiday type until Easter.  That is unless you count Valentine’s Day and/or St. Patrick’s Day.  And I don’t count them because they’re not holidays that are generally embraced by the majority of people.  If you have a sweetheart, you…

Dear Customers, Reboot, restart, “proceed past Go, do not collect $200”. . . these are just some of the ways to say the same thing.  It’s 2022 and when the new year rolls around we are faced with beginning all over again.  The difference between 12/31/21 and 1/1/22 is negligible. The days look the same,…

Dear Customers, This New Year’s Eve won’t be my first, and with God’s grace, it won’t be my last.  But there’s something about every one of them that fills me with mixed emotions.  On the one hand, there’s nostalgia in saying goodbye to the year that’s ending, no matter how it played out.  I will…

Dear Customers, If I were about 60 years younger, right about now I’d be on full Christmas alert!  I’d be so excited I’d be virtually vibrating.  And why wouldn’t I?  The houses in the neighborhood were decked out in their illuminated finery and the Main Street business section was aglow with lights strung across the…

Dear Customers, The whirlwind that is December continues!  The entire month reminds me of one of those swirling wind currents that can exist any time of the year.  In the summer they feature dust and the errant leaf while from now through March they most likely will include a smattering of snow.  With everything there…
