Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs; mix well. Combine oats, flour, baking soda and salt in a separate bowl. Add to butter mixture in several additions, mixing well after each. Stir in cranberries and chocolate chips (I prefer them without but boys like them in).
