Lewis Family McDonald’s is giving people a break on tax day.

Ada's McDonald's Restaurant will offer a special promotion on Tuesday, April 15. Customers who buy one Big Mac or Quarter Pounder with Cheese can get the second for just 15 cents.

“Tax Relief Day has become a promotion that our guests look forward to every year,” said Jerry Lewis, McDonald’s owner. “Our tax day event is one more way we are bringing our guests great value.”

The promotion runs the entire day and is available at McDonald’s in Ada, Lima, Delphos, Van Wert, Beaverdam and Bluffton.

It's a deal you can't refuse.

In honor of National Library Week, Sunday to Saturday, April 13 - 19, the Ada Public Library will wipe your slate clean. If you have overdue book fines up to $5, you win.

All you need to do is donate canned goods exchange for your book fine payment during National Library Week, according to Amanda Bennett, library director.

The only fine print is that the food donations don't apply to replacement costs.

Tuesday afternoon is "cash mob" day in Ada.

The cash mob is taking place at The Artist Boutique on Main, 117 S. Main Street, Ada, from 3 to 5 p.m.

“Deb Curlis welcomed our invitation to host this event,” said Heather Cox, member of the committee. “We hope to continue more cash mobs in Ada in the future.”

Cox said that to make the cash mob even more inviting to customers, the Artist Boutique on Main will offer door prizes during the event.

The business will also have homemade pastries and punch during the cash mob hours.

Drawing more attention to the mob, the Buy Ada First Committee will be handing out information on the benefits of buying local.
