The Maryville Farmers' Market is going strong at its new location at the city parking lot downtown on the east end of Broadway. We picked up some tomatoes, green and red peppers, a watermelon, and some honey. Click read more for more photos...

Speaking of the sales tax holiday this weekend, the new Circuit City in Alcoa is set to open Saturday.

Some merchandise is eligible for the sales tax exemption (specifically computers costing less than $1500), so it's a chance to save a few bucks.

The stores at the new Hamilton Crossing Plaza will help offset Alcoa's estimated $450,000 loss of sales tax revenues to the new Super Wal*Mart out on 411 S.

The liquor stores that should be opening soon will help, too.

The Tennessee Sales Tax Holiday starts Friday, August 3 at 12:01 a.m. and goes through Sunday, August 5 at 11:59 p.m. Details here.
