Shout-outs & Shameless Plugs & Misc

• The Happy Harry’s Penny Sale runs through 5/21. FYI they made the switch a while ago from the “BOGO for a Penny” deal, to now just having big sale prices on various items in their bottle shops.

• With grilling season arriving, let’s give a shout out to Big Deck Barbecue Co. I always have bottles of their barbecue sauce & mustard in the fridge, and a Deck Dirt in the cupboard. Go support your taste buds AND a local entrepreneur by buying some Big Deck at an area retailer (usually Hornbacher's for me).
