Greetings!
I'd like to share the following specials on pasta running through this weekend:
Shaw's Supermarket: Prince pasta 10/$10
Hannaford: Hannaford elbow pasta $0.87 each
Stop and Shop: Kraft Macaroni & Cheese 5/$6
And that's just to name a few. I wonder what sorts of specials can be found at Market Basket? or Walmart? or the supermarket just down your street?
I know that you have a lot to do on the weekends but please consider making just one extra stop to pick up some items to donate for our food drive. We really do everyone's help if we are going to meet our goal in the next week or so.
Have a wonderful Mother's Day weekend!
Sincerely,
