My rant about online versions of printed store circulars...

[Marcster]

You know how many stores are now displaying store circulars online since many people don't get the newspaper anymore?

 

For example:

http://www.fivebelow.com/ads

http://kmart.shoplocal.com/kmart/default.aspx

http://staples.shoplocal.com/staples/default.aspx?action=entryflash&cmSearchKeyword=circular

 

My rant is that when you click through for the "larger" view that it's still too small to read. Even the largest version is far too small.

 

Most people have a 19" monitor (or larger) at this point. Where is the "full screen" option like you see on Youtube videos?

I have perfect 20/15 vision, uncorrected -- why am I forced to squint?

I have a 40" LCD TV I use as my monitor. I still have trouble with some of the online ads.

yup. I still think someone could make millions if they made monitors display a altered version to match eyeglass prescriptions. If I didn't have to wear my glasses, and the screen was clear, that'd be wonderful!

It's also more difficult to price match w/on-line ads (if you don't have an iphone or equivalent to pull up the ad).
