All I want you to do, every week if possible, is send the top two or
three featured produce items in your grocer's food section ad to this
email, . Also note the city you are
living in. I would like ot get an idea how prices for produce on ad
compare around the country.

What difference does it make anyway? It's not like somebody is going to
drive to another region of the country to save a buck on Rainer cherries.
Although at 7 bucks a pound they're getting kinda high.

I smell a rat. People like that aren't interested in produce as much as
finding out where we all live.

I smell someone who's mother didn't teach him any manners. Or he just
didn't listen. If you're going to ask favors, at say please and thank you.
Even if you are harvesting e-mail addresses.

In Texas and Louisiana, many of the stores will have brisket on sale
during holidays, such as Labor Day, Memorial Day, St. Patrick's Day. It
will be $ .99 per pound, untrimmed. Trimmed brisket is a little more,
between $1.29 - 1.69 per pound.
