Tips for Week of July 29, 2004


THINGS I LEARNED THIS WEEK:

  • Just in time for back to school shopping, the Georgia sales tax free holiday will be from July 29-August 1 2004. It is designed for the individual consumer and personal use only. You might want to go over the state line this weekend and check it out. Find out about exceptions before you purchase. 

  • The Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) regulations require public comment from interested individuals in the writing of the 2005 State Plan of Program Operations by August 9, 2004. 

  • For the past two years in a row, "Southern Business and Development" magazine named Alabama its "state of the year" for the improvement in its economic conditions. "There are very few states, if any, in the U.S.," wrote the magazine, "turning as many significant job-making announcements per capita than Alabama right now." 

  • Limestone Bay Trading Company, Inc. is a new restaurant in Mooresville. It's open Monday thru Friday from 11 to 2 p.m. One friend told me: "it has great food, great prices and 'the best dessert I've ever had'!" I'm checking this one out!

  • Although I was born & raised in Huntsville, I've never had a fried pickle. I finally found one on the menu at Alabama Roadhouse--they are quite tasty!
