Santa delivers access to holiday shopping ads on NFB-NEWSLINE 

Take Your Holiday Gift Lists and Log on to NFB-NEWSLINE to Find Some Holiday Shopping Deals!

As the snow starts to fall around some parts of the country, and the holiday shopping season begins ever earlier and with more deals than ever before, we here at NFB-NEWSLINE have been working to make the shopping season more fun and affordable for you. We are pleased to announce that now, for the first time, we have added sales deals and information from a number of chain stores from around the country to NFB-NEWSLINE in order to help you save some money during this buying and giving time of the year.

We are pleased to inform you that there are now holiday sales circulars from twelve chain stores on NFB-NEWSLINE on a temporary basis, stores we have never listed before. We see great benefit in providing this information to our subscribers; unfortunately this effort is very manually intensive and we will be only able to offer these newly added sales circulars on NFB-NEWSLINE until December 31, 2013. Sale circulars for Target, which have been on NFB-NEWSLINE since July 2011, will continue to be offered with no service interruption. 

The sales circulars of the additional twelve retailers come from Albertsons, Best Buy, Giant Food, Home Depot, Kohls, Kroger, Publix, Sears, Staples, Toys R Us, Walgreens, and Wal-Mart. 

The newly added sales circulars are linked to the zip code of your state sponsor and cannot be changed on an individual basis as can be done with the Target sales circular. Therefore, the listing of the ten closest stores for each one of the newly added sales circulars may not be an exact listing of the closest ten stores to your location. Please note that you may experience a slight discrepancy in products and pricing being offered at your local store in comparison with the circular being presented on NFB-NEWSLINE. We encourage our subscribers to check with their local store to determine exact product availability and pricing.

To access the new holiday sales circulars on the telephone portion of NFB-NEWSLINE, go to the main menu to press the number five, which is labeled, “To read newspapers in a different state.” Next, press option five, which is now labeled, “Holiday Shopping Advertisements” and follow the prompts to select your favorite retailer. 

Currently sales circulars are only available on the telephone portion of NFB-NEWSLINE, iPhone users wishing to have the sales circulars displayed on their device while shopping can login to the telephone portion of NFB-NEWSLINE, find the retailer of their choice and then, while listening to a section of interest, press the pound nine key combination to have that section of the circular e-mailed to them. 

We encourage all of you to contact us to let us know how you used these new ads and whether you found them to be helpful. We would like to make most of the weekly advertisements from all these stores permanent, and we need your input. Your testimonials can help us identify which store ads are most helpful and useful, and how we can make them better. Please also let us know if you have contacts or connections with any managerial level staff members at any of these retailers so we can make an attempt to permanently carry their circular on NFB-NEWSLINE. You can keep us informed by calling our comment line at 410-505-5896 to leave us a voice message, or send an e-mail to nfbnewsline at nfb.org. We look forward to hearing from you about how you use this new service, and if you have suggestions, or have contacts with any of these corporations for us. 

To register to NFB-NEWSLINE or to learn more about the service, please visit: www.nfbnewsline.org, or call us at 1-866-504-7300.

Thank you for using NFB-NEWSLINE and Happy Holidays to you all!

The NFB-NEWSLINE Team
