Call it a Random Act of Kindness or just a nice, Patriotic gesture, a Fedex Delivery person in Ashland, Ohio is making the National news rounds for just that.
Jackie Szabo, who has a son in the military, saw the man on her security camera leave her package and then began messing with the pillows on her front porch bench.

ICYMI: No Sales Tax on Glasses/Contacts for Ohioans
With Back to School shopping on the horizon, saving money is always helpful and those big ticket purchases like Glasses and/or Contact lenses can be a very expensive necessity, so this should help a little.
As of July 1st of this year, the State Of Ohio has added prescription Glasses and Contact Lenses to a list of items that are exempt from Sales Tax that includes Hearing Aids, Prescription Drugs, and other medical supplies, and that should save taxpayers between $20-30 million dollars a year.
Ohioans are expected to spend nearly $400 million dollars on glasses and contacts next year.

In case you didn't know, OHIO is FUN!
Well, the secret is out. Since we live here it can be hard to appreciate all the cool things that the Buckeye State has to offer, but to folks that live in a way less-fun state (which is apparently most of them) I guess that makes Ohio a destination for fun! A recent Survey by Wallethub.com has Ohio's "Nightlife" ranked in the Top 10, and in the Top 20 for "Entertainment and Recreation". We knew all that already though, Right? For more about how Ohio is better than most other places, CLICK to see the full results of the survey.
