Ads and Sales

Our Classified Ads this week were full of deals and great opportunities. Yard Sales, Help Wanted Ads, and plenty of unique items and animals for sale. The time is coming for many people in the area to put on Yard/Garage sales, and we will do our best to inform you about all of them! Check out these Facebook pages for more information about various sales happening locally: 

Ardmore AL/TN Yard Sale 

Ardmore/Elkmont area Yard Sales 

Limestone County Yard Sales

Yard sales are a great way to rid your home of unwanted or just plain unnecessary clutter. Instead of throwing all that stuff out in the garbage, you can help it find a new home where someone will want it. If you’re thinking of putting on your own yard/garage sale, hurry and get your ad in to the Community Shopper by 5:00 PM the Monday before a new issue is released! You can get twenty words for $5.00 ($.05 per word after twenty). This article has tips on putting on your own successful yard/garage sale: http://www.moneycrashers.com/successful-garage-sale-tips/

Go Tigers!

The Ardmore baseball team has been racking up wins as their season winds down to a close as they inch their way to the State Playoffs. See their schedule and more updates at http://highschoolsports.al.com/school/ardmore-ardmore/. You can also use this site to keep up with other sports teams at Ardmore and/or other local schools’ teams. You can also catch pictures of the baseball team and their games on their Facebook page. 

As a community, we should be supporting our tigers in their journey to hopefully the State Finals! Ardmore student sections are known for getting a little bit rowdy, and everyone is welcome to join in. Both Ardmore Baseball and Softball have made it to the State Playoffs and WON in the past, so it’s up to the team to keep the tradition alive. 

As the baseball and softball seasons come to an end, the school year will not be far behind it, which means it’s almost summer time! The Alabama heat and humidity have never been known to be kind to anyone or anything so be sure to check out King’s Hardware in downtown Ardmore or Collins Sales on Gatlin Rd. for assistance in keeping the bitter heat from ruining your summer OUTDOORS. Our annual Lawn, Garden, & Home issue will be released on April 12th with tips on how to care for lawns and gardens in this special season.
