Help the community and save yourself a little money this year with Thrifty Nickel. All you have to do is bring in two cans of food to donate and you’ll receive a week of free advertising with the purchase of two!

Another Monday is here following yet another close disappointing Cowboys loss. I thought it was bad scoring 48 and still losing to Denver a few weeks ago, but yesterday’s game felt even worse.

The best part of Wednesdays is that they signify the modern workweek being half way over. Of course we’ve all seen the commercial on TV with the camel walking around the office shouting “Hump Day” because its Wednesday. But I was a big fan of Wednesdays long before the talking camel ever came about. Today is also the day where Thrifty Nickel production puts the finishing touches on this week’s paper so it can be sent off to the printers and put on newsstands tomorrow. So what about all of you, what is it that you like about Wednesdays? Leave a reply below and let us know!
