Rugs Carlucci and the Flying Piggy Bank. Good cop, Bad cop. Fact or Fiction?

I am a super fan of the Rocksburg mysteries series of novels first evolving from Chief Mario Balzic and continuing with Detective Rugs Carlucci. These series of crime novels skillfully weave words into masterful dialogue and intriguing plots capturing the raw flavor of a great gritty crime novel.

Titles like The Man Who Liked Slow Tomatoes, The Rocksburg Railroad Murders, and one of Carl Constantine Kosak's (K.C. Constantine) best installments in the series, Good Sons make for interesting reading any time of year.

It got me to thinking, if Detective Carlucci weren't a fictional character, would he stop buy Bottom Dollar Food at 1100 Chartiers Ave in Rocksburg, PA during his daily patrols to pick up some snacks, juices, a banana, some Coke products for the police station's office size refrigerator?

Since in my opinion, he is one of the best fictional detectives written about in the past twenty years, I'd think he'd get a Bottom Dollar membership and through his leadership, most of the rest of the force would be regular Bottom Dollar Food customers as well, or at least their wives would be doing the family grocery shopping there.

It's no mystery that every time you shop Bottom Dollar Food, you save so much money that to some, it would appear to be down right criminal. Shopping smart isn't a crime, shopping any where else might be a crime of stupidity.

The good citizens of McKees Rocks realize when it comes to saving money on their total grocery bill, following the Flying Piggy Bank is the only way to go.

It's the absolute best way to keep more money in your wallet. It's just one of many great reasons to be Bottom Dollar Food smart.

Taking the Mystery Our of Grocery Shopping

I am a huge fan of the Janet Evanovich Stephanie Plum series.

This tough bail bonds hunter has a messed up live, for sure. If you read Smokin Seventeen and Explosive Eighteen, you know what I mean.

She never has any food in her refrigerator. She is always mooching off her parents for food, for a place to stay, to borrow the big Blue and White Buick, a floating luxury tank from the 1950"s. Heck the savings alone shopping at Bottom Dollar Food would keep the gas tank full and ready to catch her bail bond skips.

I just have a hunch when the next installment appears in November, 2012, she's going to discover that she can have her peanut butter stocked in her pantry any time she craves for it by shopping her Bottom Dollar Food at 2735 S. Broad St., Trenton, NJ.

I don't think she will find her skip there since almost all of captures take place where something blows up.

One tool she has never used is a blimp.

If she shopped Bottom Dollar Food, may be she would figure out how valuable a Flying Piggy Bank could be to catch those bond skips.

Sure she could achieve a lot and make her life easier if she shopped Bottom Dollar Food. Her catch fees would go a lot further and she'd have food there for Morrelli when he stops by her apartment, invited or not.

And finally Ranger would think that his babe has finally gotten it all together.

Getting your life together by saving money is a great reason to shop Bottom Dollar Food. It's one of many.
