Found: Two Huskies at Two Monsters Pet Store

UPDATE 5:20pm was informed their status at acc is "reclaimed" - thank you all for sharing and boosting!

Hi! I was driving down gates and saw huskies running down gates. I ran with them and got them into two Monsters Pet Store if anyone is looking for them.

UPDATE: Me and a good Samaritan brought them to ACC (Animal Care Center) Queens to see if they're chipped and they are not. We stopped by Glover Park and were told the mom who drives a jeep is looking for them. Unfortunately we both have dogs that wouldn't be open to having another dog. If anyone knows anyone looking for them please message me or contact ACC Queens. They only have rabies tags.

Missing Persian cat

Luna Valentine, went missing October 2nd Friday night. Earlier that day I had to go run a couple of errands so I left Luna with my grandparents. When I had got back home to greet Luna, she was not here. I asked my grandparents of the situation and they both had no clue of what had happened, but the only thing they know was that the door was open to the apartment as well as the front door because of the landlord. When I had asked the landlord, where was my cat he said I haven’t seen her for a couple of days. Luna was not chipped because I never knew that was a thing until not so long ago. Luna was not spayed because she was never around other animals. It was very rare. I’m very protective over her. To my knowledge, I didn’t even know she was pregnant until two weeks before she had given birth. No I was not breeding her. I had left Luna with my brother because he also has Luna’s brother and I feel bad because I keep her isolated from all animals so occasionally, I would bring her over to see her brother so she’s not so lonely. With that situation, my brother has not watched them very carefully unfortunately. As for the kittens, I surrendered them because i wasn’t fit to handle a situation like that and I couldn’t provide them with the proper needs 24/7. Hopefully this clears the air. Luna was taken in by @hollowridge6 and this person has went ghost as soon as they got her off the streets. Please help bring Luna back home.

Park Slope grocery price check, from this week's store circulars (Lidl, Whole Foods, C-Town, Foodtown, Stop & Shop)

Disclosure first: I built the free site linked at the end, no signup and no ads, and this post is mostly data.

Park Slope is the one neighborhood where a lot of people do their real shopping at the Food Coop, so a circular roundup feels a little beside the point. But if you are not doing a Coop shift this week, or you just want to know where the regular supermarkets are cheap right now, I read every Park Slope store's weekly ad each morning and this is what they are leading with.

A timing note: the C-Town, Foodtown, and Stop & Shop ads below run through tonight (Thursday 7/16) and flip to a new week tomorrow, while the Lidl and Whole Foods ads are the current 7/15 to 7/21 week.

Lidl (120 5th Ave), week of 7/15 to 7/21:

  • Tomatoes on the vine, $1.49
  • Bellarom ground coffee, $4.79

Whole Foods (214 3rd St), week of 7/15 to 7/21 (Prime price in parentheses):

  • Strawberries, 16 oz, 2 for $7.78 ($7 for 2 with Prime)
  • Yellow peaches, $2.77/lb ($2.49/lb with Prime)
  • Large Hass avocados, 2 for $5.56 ($5 for 2 with Prime)

C-Town (329 9th St), through tonight 7/16:

  • Seedless watermelon, quarter cuts, 79 cents
  • Slicing tomatoes, $1.49
  • Yellow nectarines and southern peaches, $1.49
  • Red seedless grapes, $3.99

Foodtown (409 5th Ave), through tonight 7/16:

  • Land O Lakes cage free large white eggs, $3.49
  • La Yogurt, 10 for $8 (80 cents each)
  • Land O Lakes whipped butter, $2.99

Stop & Shop (Atlantic Terminal, 625 Atlantic Ave), through tonight 7/16:

  • Red seedless grapes, $2.69
  • Tomatoes on the vine, $1.88
  • 90% lean ground beef, $5.99/lb

A couple of head to head notes: on tomatoes on the vine, Lidl ($1.49, and good through next Monday) beats Stop & Shop ($1.88). On red seedless grapes, Stop & Shop ($2.69) beats C-Town ($3.99), but both of those ads end tonight.

Prices are from the stores' published circulars, verify in store.
