I’m not sure how long they’ve had one since I’ve only been using it for a little while, but if you’re blind and shop at FreshCo, I’ve got some good news. They, like Food Basics, now have a screenreader accessible version of their weekly flyer. The implementation needs more than a little work, at least …
I wanted to put this up Wednesday, but didn’t get the chance. the carnival is up. It was a small one, but I’m sure there’s some other interesting reading in there. I might actually manage to get around to everybody because it’s not a honkin’ pile of posts to read, haha!
