$10 is $10
and a Bruschi jersey that I wouldnt have been taxed on anyway.

fishsmith 08-14-2005, 08:10 PM a car battery, a whopping $2.75 savings.
No one would care if all stores announced 5% off day, but the feeling of getting back at Taxachusetts makes it worth it.

I'm only saying I wouldnt run out if all these stores ran a "5% off, this weekend only" sale. I price shop for months on large ticket items. But I'm glad the weekend WORKED FOR YOU. :)
