WHAT’S THE TRUTH ABOUT HIGH FOOD COSTS? rw • ” We Hear Much Conversation Each Week About Food Prices And Thousands Os Dollars Are Spent Each Week By Many Grocers Advertising Their Merchandise. Most Os These \ds Are Honest Ads With Many Many Excellent Buys - Unfortunately Some Ads Are Misleading And Below U.S. Standard Grades. Are Made To Look Like Real Buys When Truthfully They Are Very Poor Buys And The Unsuspecting Housewife Is The Victim. How Do You Deal With \ Situation Like This? We Think The Best Way Is To Trade With A Grocery Store Handling Nationally Advertised Foods — One That Is Popular, Busy, Well Liked And Having V Reputation For Honesty And Integrity — One That Is Modern And Clean, One That Progresses With The Rapidly Changing Methods Os Merchandising, One That Raises And Lowers His Prices With Constantly Changing Markets. One That Passes On Special Deals Offered By Most Every Manufacturer At One Time Or Another, One That Is Willing To Go Out Os liis Way To Make Shopping Pleasant In His Store, We Feel We Have Such A Store And We Hope If You Aren’t Already A Customer Aou Will Give Us A Try Soon. Our Prices Storewide Are Far Lower Than Many Stores. We Went Shopping Last Week And Bought Only Shelf Items - No Sale Items And Then Shopped Our Own Store For Identical Items.
