A little Pennsylvania grocery nostalgia for the timeline!
This throwback video shows the old ACME in the West Goshen Shopping Center on Paoli Pike in West Chester back in 1990. The cars. The storefronts. A snapshot of a regular day more than 30 years ago. 🛒📼

🪙 Common Cents Act Passed the PA House ✨
PFMA helped champion HB 2388, the Pennsylvania Common Cents Act, which passed the state House today with strong bipartisan support. The bill gives Pennsylvania businesses clear rules for rounding cash transactions to the nearest nickel as pennies are phased out. 💵
PFMA thanks @RepNateDavidson for his work on this practical, pro-business, pro-consumer issue.
Next stop: the PA Senate. We look forward to advancing this bill to the governor for final approval.

Summer break should mean full days, not empty plates.
PFMA member @Instacart and @FeedingAmerica are teaming up through Instacart’s largest Summer Hunger Community Carts campaign yet, supporting more than 300 food bank partners and agencies across the country.
Through Community Carts, customers can choose a local food bank, shop from a list of needed grocery items and have those donations delivered directly by Instacart shoppers. Instacart waives service and delivery fees on Community Carts donations.
It’s a simple way to help food banks get the items families need most during the summer meal gap.
