Technology Is Fritzing, So Just Eat Outside :: Retail Therapy Guide 7/22/2022

Word on the street is that emails are fritzing, car chargers are busting, phones are overheating, and technology is generally melting during this heat wave. The Beacon Farmers Market just announced that they are closing early on Sunday at 2pm, so if you can't get there, order delivery! Eggbert's Free Range Farm already started their weekend deliveries in anticipation of the heat. Order free delivery now!
HEARTFELT PLUG: Eggbert's website was designed by Katie James Inc., ALBB's parent company.
