Welcome to the Wednesday newsletter! This is going to be a quick one because we're flying back to Minnesota this morning AND it's my birthday so I didn't want to get up waaaay extra earlier to work AND now my mouse battery died and I don't have another one along. BUT we still have some good stuff today! If you missed it, you can see our Monday newsletter here for more about Minnesota Wild Block Parties around the state, the Trail of Small Wonders and Restaurant Week in the Twin Cities with a...

Happy Monday! This is one of those days I mentioned that I'm technically on vacation, but still wanted to get a newsletter out to you so there may be a few last minute things that don't make it in here and if so they'll be added on the website and/or Facebook and or the Great Deals Page. If you missed Friday's newsletter it's still worth checking out because the events we included are ongoing including the Como weekend shuttle, FREE fitness in the parks and the Walnut Grove Pageant and...

Yay for Friday! This long post-holiday week is finally coming to a close! I'm actually flying at the time this email is going out so I didn't have a chance to add any "last minute" stuff. If anything as popped up it'll be added on Facebook or on the Current Great Deals page. If you missed our Wednesday email, check it out HERE for Stillwater Trolley Tours, Touch-a-Truck Events, Sally Manzara Nature Center and a bunch of things in the freebies and deals section that are still good today. If...

Welcome to the Wednesday newsletter! It's still seeming like a loooong week post-holiday. I think I might like it better when the holiday is on the Monday! We've got a lot to cover today - especially in the deals and freebies section. That page on the website is in the middle of a big overhaul. We've added a bunch of new, but are still working on weeding out old stuff - that's always the hardest part! If you missed it, you can see our Monday newsletter here for more about the 80+ county fairs...

Thanks for joining us for the Monday newsletter! The day after a holiday weekend is always a rough one. I hope you had a good few days and didn't have anything rained out! Today we have a bit of a Minnesota farming theme to the newsletter. I didn't PLAN it that way, but that's how it turned out. Maybe it's because I've been missing the days of heading to my grandparents' farm on the 4th of July. Anyway, we have some fun to share with County Fairs happening all over, a fun and free farm-themed...

Happy 4th of July! Last night my husband asked if I was still planning to send a newsletter this morning or if I had it as an "alternate holiday" with the 4th being Saturday - which is what he has. As you can see, I'm still here, but maybe this will be a little bit shorter. - - But we're just getting started, so who knows. If you missed our Wednesday email, check it out HERE for White Bear Lake Marketfest, Hand Mod crafting, lack of citywide garage sales this weekend, gas deals thsi weekend...

Welcome to the Wednesday newsletter! Almost half way through the week. I'm running late, so let's jump right in! If you missed it, you can see our Monday newsletter here for more about Can Can Wonderland, fun ideas to beat the heat, cheap and free kids movies. Since it's a holiday weekend, there's a break on the Minnesota City Wide Garage Sale List this week, although there's a citywide sale in Zimmerman. They have these 3 times per summer though so it's usually not very big. In general, July...

Thanks for joining us for the Monday newsletter! what a gross day! When it's already hot and muggy when I walk the dog at 8am you know it's going to be a bad one. Stay safe in the heat! If you missed Friday's newsletter you can still see it here with more about the FREE Inflataworld at Maplewood Mall (maybe a good idea for a hot day like today) and Drop-In Discovery Events at Three Rivers Park District. Some of the items in the deals section are still happening too. With the hot weather, you...
