Grammarians: Please correct this, in lieu of current grammar rules. Thanks, Mike Burris June 26, 1995 Mr. Thomas M. Ryan, President & Chief Executive Officer Consumer Value Stores 1 CVS Drive Woonsocket, RI. 02895 Dear Mr. Ryan: I am writing you in regards to your stationary notebooks sold at many of your CVS Pharmacy Stores. On occasion , I purchase your CVS Mead, college ruled, 200 sheets, ring bound notebooks. A few months ago, I noticed a change in type of material used on the front cover. The previous notebooks used a stiffer, multi-colored cardboard front cover. Your newer ones use a thinner cover that bends too easily, and thus leaves an ugly crease. I feel this change in materials gives the notebook a cheap appearance. Would you please consider returning to the former materials you previously used ? Fortunately , I have found some of the older type notebooks at your CVS Store in Bedford, Massachusetts. This will meet my needs for the immediate future. I hope you will consider my comments for future reference. Sincerely, Michael A. Burris
