TOP TEN PREDICTIONS FOR 1811 <\/strong>

10) Marmalade muffins with bits sarsaparilla root will win the county’s 4H best recipe contest. <\/p>\n

\nLook for a $5 off a a $20 purchase coupon for Farohs and Olympia candy in the News-Herald TGIF magazine. <\/p>\n

CVS <\/strong>
\nI don’t know how this got by me, but CVS has a sign in one of their aisles labeled WARTS & LICE. (Thanks to Stacie H for pointing this fine tidbit out to me.) Now most CVS stores are small. I can’t see people walking in there and just fretting over where those items are at. Then again I don’t know if I’d want to ask someone where those items are. Maybe that is why they have a sign for it. If that is the case I can see signs needed for WHISTLING NOSE MEDICINE & LESIONS. <\/p>\n

BURGER KING <\/strong>
\nI saw a sign that said buy one get one free chicken sandwich (they’re on sale now at all Burger Kings for BOGO). I pulled into the drive thru. I told them I had a buy one get one free coupon for chicken sandwiches, hoping to get both for free. No can do. I sped off. Nothing ventured nothing gained. <\/p>\n

LEGAL <\/strong>
\nDid you ever buy a razor that didn’t raise or stimulate your hair up and away from your skin? Well, Gillette settled a lawsuit that might net ya some bucks or a razor. <\/p>\n

The lawsuit challenges the accuracy of Gillette\u2019s advertisements for the M3Power Razor. Plaintiffs claim Gillette\u2019s advertisements that the M3Power Razor “raises or stimulates hair up and away from the skin” were false and misleading and violated consumer-related laws in the USA and Canada. In mid-2005, Gillette deleted those representations from its ads. Gillette denies all the allegations but has agreed to the proposed settlement to resolve this class action. <\/p>\n

The proposed settlement offers benefits (including cash refunds, cash rebates, or a new Gillette manual men\u2019s razor) to persons in the United States or Canada who purchased or otherwise acquired for use and not resale an M3Power Razor in the United States between May 1, 2004 and September 30, 2005, or in Canada between May 1, 2004 and October 31, 2005, and who submit valid and timely claims. <\/p>\n

Click here to submit for a settlement:
\nhttp:\/\/www.m3powersettlement.com <\/a><\/p>\n

Some folks may be due some bucks for a settlement by Fifth Third on overdraft fees. <\/p>\n

Under the proposed settlement, Fifth Third will pay $9.5 million into a fund. Customers may make a claim for total overdraft fees paid during any 45-day period between Oct. 21, 2004 and July 1, 2010. Customer may get a settlement for up to three times their claim, but that depends on the number of claims made. <\/p>\n

Claims may be submitted online at http:\/\/www.OverdraftSettlement.com<\/a>. For information, call 1-888-235-7491 or send an email to info@OverdraftSettlement.com. People who think they have claims must submit forms after the approval and any appeals next spring. <\/p>\n

FREE SHIPPING <\/strong>
\nI had to chuckle when I saw that Bahama Breeze and Olive Garden were offering free shipping on their gift cards. Ok, so I’d save what like 44 cents for it to be shipped? It’s like a rebate for a $1 where you have to spend 44 cents for a stamp plus an envelope and take the time to fill it out. <\/p>\n

If you’re looking for businesses that are offering free shipping like many are doing now go to http:\/\/www.freeshipping.org<\/a> and http:\/\/www.freeshippingon.com<\/a>. <\/p>\n
