Window-Shopping
in your easy chair-
Relax f oi' a moment and turn the pajjfcs of your news
paper. Let the advertisements help you to make your
shopping plans. Do you need a dress, or a coat, or a
hat? Perhaps a new blanket for a guest-room, some
curtain material, or even a few new pots and pans for
the. kitchen? Of course, there are many things you
want and need . . . but you may be letting many of
them wait until you see in a store or a window exactly
what you have in mind, at an especially alluring price.
Those are the very things you will find in adver
tisements. Attractive articles, new and;, improved
ones, prices that make quick action an' economy. Think
how many steps it can save you to hunt out" these
things, and find them, in comfort at home! If a spe
cial opportunity is offered, you'll know about it in
time. When new articles are announced, you can have
them before they, are the least bit out of date. And
you can save hours of .waiting and asking, miles of
steps and money too!
.
These are but a few of the ways the advertisements
in your newspapers can serve you. If you read them
every day, you are sure to grow wise in the ways of
purchasing ... and saving.
