Marlborough families have many grocery shopping choices and many opportunities to save money. Within the past year a new supermarket chain has opened a store in our area and our local big box stores have now started offering fresh groceries. The drug stores also sell grocery items. With all this abundance comes the need to shop very carefully and understand prices. On Monday I took a ride to the larger stores near my home to find out what the prices are this week for the breakfast staples that my family enjoys. The stores I visited were Hannaford, Target and Price Chopper in Marlborough and Walmart in Hudson. Below are my findings. I realize that not everyone would choose to buy these items, especially if you have a food allergy or a …

Save on Patriots logo shirts, a new look for you, and a new closet or home office.
1. Patriots shirt deal: Cheering “GO PATS” is much more effective if you are wearing a Patriots shirt. But at around $85, the number “12” adult jersey is out of reach for many. I found some affordable Patriots shirts at Ocean State Job Lot. There are hefty hooded sweatshirts for $20, long sleeve t-shirts for $10, and I picked up two short-sleeve t-shirts for $7 each. There are no player names or championship years on these shirts so you can wear them year after year. There are lots of big sizes, so if you are lucky enough to get a ticket for Sunday’s game, you can wear a shirt over your coat. See their weekly flyer for these and more deals. Ocean State Job Lot is located at 230A East Main St. 2. Spark up your look for less at Charming …

The holidays have passed and Marlborough families are taking back their homes by putting away decorations, cleaning closets, and getting organized. Think twice before you pack things away and store them in the basement. If you haven’t used something in a year, you probably won’t use it again. Get it into the hands of someone who can use it. 1. Donate items to the Marlborough Community Cupboard: Carol Phipps, manager of the Marlborough Community Cupboard, would be pleased to receive your donations of children's and adult clothing, baby equipment, games and toys, paperback books, videos, small household items (no large equipment or furniture please) as well as non-perishable food items.
