A Slippery Commute for Bedford Residents?

1. The weatherman says ... Though it appears the snow has stayed away for today, the morning commute still may be slippery as temperatures are expected to hover in the mid-30s all morning with wet roads and a light wintery mixture falling from the clouds. The forecasted high today, according to Weather.com, is 38 degrees with a 30-percent chance of rain and an overnight low of 29 degrees with clear skies.

2. A spirited opening. New Hampshire Liquor & Wine Outlet opened its newest state-run establishment on Friday. The new location, next to The Copper Door and Dunkin Donuts, across Route 101 from the Bedford Safety Complex, is roughly twice the size of Bedford's former location in the Bedford Grove. Shopping Center at Colby Court. For more information,click here.

3. Two gifts for the price of one! Finish your holiday shopping early this year by purchasing gift cards through the Bedford PTG to provide support for the Bedford schools with no additional cost to you! Watch for your order form, which will be coming home with your child from school. For every gift card you buy to local businesses – including The Purple Finch Cafe, T-Bones, Cactus Jacks, Copper Door, Carrabbas and The Meat House – a percentage of the value of the card is donated by the sponsoring retailer to our schools while 100% of the value of the card that you purchased is available for you to spend! Get more information here.

4. Win $50 by sharing your opinion! The Bedford Recreation Department is asking residents to take a short survey and is offering a $50 gift card to one lucky respondent. Read more here.
