Please remember your local food bank when you go grocery shopping this weekend!
Print out the flier below and make copies for your friends, family or co-workers to take with you when you go grocery shopping.
(Or surreptitiously leave copies at the grocery store!)
You don't have to pick up everything on the list, just remember to pick up something.
Also, don't forget people at the http://friendsofpineridgereservation.org/projects/Winter_Coats_and_Electric_Heaters.shtml">Pine Ridge Reservation, South Dakota. They're looking for coats and space heaters. Please help any way you can.------------------------------------------------------------------------

central scrutinizer: many grocery stores offer cheap frozen turkeys - as low as $.19 per pound - if you buy over a certain amount, often $75 or $100. I take advantage of this to get a big turkey for a really low price and donate it to the food bank.
This winter will be pretty bad in some areas, so even if you can't make it to the food bank, send money or help out any way you can.
And, last, but not least, please support candidates and policies that guarantee livable wages.
