Aldies


I stopped into a new food store today in my area.
It is called Aldies, and from what I had heard, it was like a discount grocery store.
It was very basic, and had a few brand names, many of the prices on the can goods were the same as the great value brand at Wal-Mart.
The only good point I found was along with my register receipt, I got a strip of coupons that were good at various retailers in the area.


Times are tight, and I do grab any coupon I can find, so even though I had to put my cans in a box, and pay a quarter deposit to use the shopping cart, I still may go back

A Bad Word ?

In a forum today, I was involved in a heated debate because I said a bad word.
I had no idea it was bad.
I did not even know it was offensive.
I said the " click " word
The discussion started over the cost of ads, and placement. One commenter was complaining about in-text ads, and another was complaining over the poor results from the ads he had on his site from Project Wonderful.
The in-text poster asked me while I was reading blogs, what type of ad appealed to me, and what, if anything would make me visit a sponsor ?
I explained to him that if I was at a food site and saw something for recipe's, or coupons, I was clicking the ad.
If I was at a travel site and saw information on hotels, or coupons or even free guides I would click the ads.
Whatever site I was at, food, travel, politics, that is what I was interested at the time, and if I could get something free, or even a coupon, I would click the ad.
That is when I was hit with the names, and called thief, and click bandit, and people typing in all caps telling me that ads cost money, and I am doing nothing but wasting their hard earned advertising dollars.
I do not click ads to waste any ones money, and I do not try to commit any kind of fraud by clicking them. To me, the ads are like the coupons that come in a Sunday morning paper, and I like to check them out.
So I am just gonna keep clicking, I hope you folks don't mind
