It was 2.89 but not sure if that is the current. Unfortunately we are stuck with whatever the price is until the load is used up!!

Would they microbrews such as Bell's, Traverse Brewing, Great Lakes, New Holland, or Arcadia?

I am looking for something other than Bud-Miller-Coors. Particularly local stuff.
Thanx.

Yeah, I forgot who produces it but one of the micros, good porter but their advertising slogan, which I think has been changed, was, "Goes down, stays down!". Booh!!!!

ATM

McDonoughs Market also has an ATM. There is a $3.00 charge to use it though.. I am not too familiar with ATM's but I guess this is normal.

ATM

$3 fee for ATM is high. Typically down state it ranges from $1.75 - $2.00. Perhaps the servicing of the ATM is more expensive on the Island.
