July 14th Edition Highlights

After Monday's usual barrage of last-minute ad submissions and final-wrappings-up for the publication of the Shopper, we're breathing our usual Tuesday sigh of relief, as the papers have finally been printed and are now beginning the journey to their respective destinations. Even Cloudy, our office mascot, is perched soundlessly in his cage - for once. We're pretty sure that even the bird chirps more on Mondays.

Tomorrow, over 30,000 copies of the Shopper will be in front yards, mailboxes and racks, waiting to be perused, but, in the meanwhile, here are a few highlights from our upcoming edition.

Our front page story this week sported information about the Greenville Police Department Kids' Camp, taking place from July 18-22. All newly-graduated fifth graders moving into the sixth grade at the end of the summer are welcome to participate in the free day camp, where they'll receive law enforcement training and participate in team-building exercises. There's even a free lunch every day! For more information, or to register, visit the camp's page.

Trying to save money this summer? There are quite a few garage and estate sales in this week's paper. Start planning your weekend bargain hunt now, and prepare to score everything from antiques to clothing to appliances for less! If you're having a garage sale, it pays to advertise it in the shopper: for only $5, you can let 80,000 people know where you are and what you plan to offer.
