Artie T has managed to open 3 new stores since he bought out his evil cousin, Artie S. One more store will open at the end of the month. All stores are in Massachusetts and some of them have a Market Basket cafe with free WIFI.

Artie T has appeared at every opening and sometimes can't even make it inside the store because hundreds of people greet him outside and everyone wants a hug and a photo taken. At the last opening, he stood outside for 3 to 4 hours greeting people before making it inside to greet his employees.

He's managed to keep prices the same, altho a few items have gone up by a few cents. I was able to buy a Thanksgiving turkey dinner with all the fixings for 10 people for $59 and it was better than anything I could have thrown together.

Anyhow, people are still in love with Artie and would love to see this documentary happen. Feel free to donate even $1 just to help out. And thanks!
