Don is correct. Go to

How to access this weekly ad site with the aid of a screen reader...
Offering web solutions that are accessible is important here at ShopLocal.
To best
assist guests that wish to use screen reader software to access the weekly
ad site,
the following three easy steps need to be understood and followed:
1. ShopLocal only supports the screen reader
JAWS 8.X for WindowsR, from Freedom Scientific,
 which is the most popular screen reader worldwide.
2.To access the weekly ad site, all guests must have already installed the
required
Adobe Flash Player 9 browser plug-in. If you have not already, this
free 1.4 MB download from Adobe is easily installed by following this link.
3. To use the JAWS screen reader with the weekly ad site most effectively,
all guests
must download and install a set of
free scripts (ZIP file that is 88K) from the Adobe website
 as a one-time activity. These scripts enable some of the accessibility
features
of the weekly ad site and allow guests to utilize the standard JAWS keyboard
shortcuts
than would otherwise be possible. Please note that these scripts only work
for users
of JAWS 8.x and later.
For more information on these add-on JAWS scripts, please visit the
following help
page that Adobe hosts that talks more about
using Adobe Flex applications with JAWS


I do not understand why they feel this site is best accessed with JAWS, but
to me at least, that's not providing accessibility with a screen reader. 
I'm no  going to look for contact info and give them a piece of my mind. 
I recommend others do the same.
