CO MMJSSAXY
After the big "Blow" the past week, we feel that we are fortunate to still
be in business as for a while it looked like we might be operating from a tent.
Our Thanks go to LTJG Larabee, Chief Knutson and the rest of the men' from L8E,
who came to our rescue and anchored the roof down for us.
We would like to announce to all of our patrons that our "bargain or Mark
down counter" has not been permanently discontinued, however we are required
to normally stay within a required percentage of our total gross sales for the
quarter and we have already exceeded our peak for the current quarter. After
the first of the year we will again feature our "slow moving" items at greatly
reduced prices.
Our apologies to our patrons who have patiently been awaiting the arrival
of the last ship for your fruit cakes. We are attempting to have this shipment
forwarded to Adak via the first available Military Air and hope to have them on
hand in time for those patrons who prefer to age their fruit cakes with a wee
bit of spirits.
We would like to announce the availability of roasting chickens (approxi
mately four pound average weight) selling for 44cp per lb* These will be stock
ed in the display case with the whole fryers and can be readily distinguished
by the imprinted label. These should prove to be a welcome change to the pat
rons and would like to get away from the fried or broiled routine. Speaking
of birds, we* do have plenty of all weight ranges of turkeys on hand, however
due to their bulky size we will not be displaying these until shortly before
X’maso Also on hand, are the boneless whole turkeys which average approxi
mately 14 pounds each. If any of you patrons are allergic to carving a whole
bird, we recommend you try one of these. Please see the butcher for any of
your turkey needs.
HELP WANTED! ! - From time to time we have solicited the help of all pat
rons in returning shopping carts to the lobby of the Commissary Store. We
have the faithful few who always manage to take time no matter how rushed they
are, to return the carts. Unless we do receive cooperation from all patrons,
we regret that we will have no other alternative except to prohibit the use of
shopping carts to transport groceries to the porches of the store. Store reg
ulations which are prominently posted just inside the entrance to the store
clearly state that all shopping carts will be returned to the store.__
