Happy Holidays!!

Hey Dealers - Think I am going to take a few days off (which means :::gasp::: skipping a Weekender - sorry) and be with The Hub and the Puffeh Doggeh and just enjoy my family for Christmas. It costs nothing and it is the best gift I could ask for.

OK, so the Hub and I might make it to Randolph's for $0.67 Martinis. ;)
Then again, I might just shake up a batch at home and stay in with my boys watching the snow fall from The Tree House patio sliders...
Silent night, Holy night.... indeed.

Be safe and Happy Holidays!

Hot Tip/Stolen Moment - Cheap and cool ideas for kids

This article from the Washington Post has some great ideas for inexpensive gifts for the little ones in your life. (Thanks Karenbird for pointing it out!)

Weekender

Um, how is it now just one week until Christmas? Where did 2009 go!?

I am proud to say that I will NOT be forced by my own procrastination to go shopping for last minute gifts this year - I am finished with all of my shopping.
So what's an unexpectedly prepared girl to do with her last weekend before Christmas?


Here are a few ideas:


12/18- The free holiday tours of the Governor's Mansion wrap up today, with tours running from 10am-2pm. Take a sneak peak and get more information here.
___________________________
12/19-12/20 - Shopping Downtown this weekend? Keep your eyes peeled as Denver Pavilions "elves" will be randomly passing out gift cards this weekend. You could be the lucky winner of the $100 SHOPPING SPREE. All of the Gift Cards will be loaded with a little something, but one lucky winner will receive a gift card worth $100!! (I am not saying to stalk the "elves" - but keep an eye out!) There will also be holiday musical performances and merriment galore to keep you shopping away! Website.
____________________________
12/18-1/3 - (ongoing) it is time to celebrate Winter Break at the Denver Art Museum for the kiddos! With free admission for those under 18 and special programing for the younger set - weekends or weekdays are great for sneaking in a little "edu-tainment" while school breaks are in full swing. Info here.
__________________________
12/19 - stuck in a wrapping rut? Need help putting personal little touches on your holiday gifts? Well this Saturday at Michaels stores, you can get it! From 1-3 and all locations you can try your hand at making tags and embellishments using inkadinkado stamp products. Visit the website for more info.
___________________________
12/19 - Itchin' to get junior out of the house AND need a last minute gift idea for fido? Well - two birds, one stone, etc etc... sign up here for the kiddos to participate in Saturday's Build and Grow clinic at Lowes, where they can make a free doggie treat holder!
__________________________
12/19-12/20 - And where to eat with the family when you are out and about this weekend? Why Qdoba, of course, where kids eat free at participating locations this weekend! One free kids meal from their new nutritious kids' menu for each adult entree purchased - valid for children 12 or under. Check here to see if your favorite location is participating.
__________________________

A question for you, Dealers - a topic near and dear to my heart, that becomes a regular lifeline during the stressful holiday season, imo: Where is your favorite Happy Hour?
My big plans for the weekend consist of finding a great one to attend this evening, and I would love to branch out. I have been perusing this list - but I find myself overwhelmed with option anxiety, so you guide me. Tell us about your faves in the comments! (Seriously - that "comment" button - I dislike dusting the cobwebs off of it - it makes a blogger sad.)

Happy Weekend, Dealers!

Weekender

Listen - do you hear that? The collective sigh of Denverites young and old breathing a sigh of collective relief; the weekend is here!

Grocery Circular Highlights

So the Hub informed me this week that Safeway has vowed to lower everyday prices on things, and that he actually noticed when he was in the store - things seemed more reasonable. Anyone else noticing a difference? (The ad they sent out with examples seems to indicate they are coming in to line with King Soopers prices on some staple items - some "new" prices still seem high to me...)

Grocery Circular Highlights

Ahhh, grocery shopping... one of my favorite activities of all time (no, serious - I am kind of a freak like that. I think it has to do with being near all that beautiful food.)
What do our major grocery chains have to offer this week?

Albertsons:
First of all, did you know that Albertsons will take all competitors coupons? Not just Kings and Safeway either! Sunflower, Walmart, Sprouts (eh?) and Whole Paycheck (er, "Whole Foods").. So those cantalinas that spit out at you at your local fave? Be sure to give them at least a passing glance if you are in Albertsons.
Also this week:
If you are shopping the Alameda and Broadway location:
$1.99 - lb Top Sirloin Steaks
$2.99 - each portions of Atlantic Farm Raised Salmon (that is a stock up price, kids - if you aren't anti farm raised.. and I am SO not)
$0.39 - lb Dole Bananas
$0.88 - Albertsons Bread
All Stores:
$1.77 - lb b/s Chicken Breasts (I am loving the great prices on b/s chicken breast - this is $0.10 more than Sunflower last week, but still good.. but don't get used to it, these things are fleeting!)
$0.97 - lb Family Pack Assorted Loin Pork Chops
(if you want center cut, those are on sale for $3.99 lb bone-in or $4.99 lb boneless)
There is a 10 for $10.00 sale in the produce section, including Mangoes, Avocados(Safeway is better), Bell Peppers (all colors), 2 lb bags of Carrots and other veggies.

King Soopers:
$1.00 - 2 cans of Kroger Broth - (beef, chicken or veggie)
$2.99 - 8 lb bag of Russet potatoes
$3.00 - 2 Pomegranates
KS is also having an Apple Sale, with all types on sale and a "sweet to tart meter" on the back page of their circular so you can figure out which Apple meets your fruity needs.

Safeway:
$1.88 lb - Beef Cross Rib Roast (boneless)
$0.77 - Hass Avocados
$0.99 - 3 lbs Navel Oranges
$3.00 - 2 Pomegranates (good price lots of places - hooray!)


Don't pay more than $1.99 a gallon for your milk this week, and look for hard and soft squash to be no more than $1.00 an lb (if you don't see it for that, head to the next store, it will be!)

Making Downtown shopping a bit more Merry.

This from the Pavillions:


3 CONVENIENT Reasons to Shop at the Denver Pavilions this Holiday Season:

-FREE Gift Wrapping: Drop your packages at PostNet (Level 1, South Plaza), present your receipts from any Denver Pavilions merchant, and we'll gift wrap your items FREE. Details at DenverPavilions.com
-FREE Dinner and a Movie: Spend $250 and receive a FREE $25 gift card to the Hard Rock Café, Lucky Strike Lanes, Maggiano's Little Italy or Corner Bakery (you choose) and a movie pass to United Artists Theatres at Denver Pavilions. Details at DenverPavilions.com.
-ALMOST FREE Parking: Through December 31, 2009, parking at the Denver Pavilions is only $2.00 on weekends and weeknights after 5pm with a validated ticket from a Denver Pavilions merchant.


(not bad)

Woops, look who is slackin' (SF Market deals)

Sorry all - I've been slackin'... I had to take to the bed with my puffeh little Potter-dog to ward off the horrid chill yesterday, and I totally missed Double Ad Wednesday at Sunflower. Oh well, the last ad's prices had been in effect for two weeks anyhoo - so IN WITH THE NEW!
What's on sale this week at SF?

In what should have been called "Sale After Keri's Own Heart" - SF is holding a Beef Roast Celebration (that is totally worthy of bold print) this week!
Rump, Cross Rib, Top Round, Chuck, Sirloin Tip, and Eye of Round are all BYGO free right now, giving you plenty of options to find the best cut and deal for your family.
If happen to be at the Colorado Blvd and Yale store and see a blond piling red meat into her cart, try not to judge - this is like an early Christmas present and I intend to stock the freezer with Roast Beast for cold winter nights to come!

What else is there?
$0.77 - 5.6 oz containers of Blackberries
$3.00 - for 2 Pomegranates (mmmm)
$0.25 - lbs of Russet Potatoes (although Kings can beat this many weeks) and Yellow Onions
$0.19 - each Kiwi fruit
$1.00 - for 3 Cucumbers
$0.88 - lb select Apple, Pear, and Orange Varieties.
$1.49 - lb - bulk sweetened banana chips (1 lb of banana chips is quite a bit!)
$1.99 - lb fresh chunky salsa from the SF deli (sooo tasty!)

Happy Deal hunting!

I Don't Really "do" Black Friday..

Ok, I admit it, though I LOVE a good deal (I mean really LOVE - as in "enough to blog about it" type love,) I can't bring myself to do the early morning or scary crowd that is Black Friday.
That being said, it doesn't seem right to skip over it here at DiD, so I pass the mic to you, Dealers.

Post the Black Friday deals you are most excited about, or other info that your fellow Dealers *should* be getting from me, but aren't in the comments section below.

Meanwhile, I leave you with this link to help you plot and navigate your way through the deals, should you be so inclined. I am sleeping in.

Happy Thanksgiving, Denver!

BOGO QDoba Coupon

Take a moment to enjoy lunch with your shopping buddy this weekend - use this coupon to get a meal free when you buy one.

Sports, anyone?

A Hot Tip from beautiful Bailey:

Facebook Sports Authority Deal - use this link to check it out, get 25% of your entire purchase, plus a free reusable shopping bag and $10.00 in "Sports Bucks."

Sunflower Double Ad Wednesday Preview

Ahhh, Thanksgiving. Groceries' big day to shine.
As always, Sunflower Market is here with fabulous deals to make sure we don't cook our goose when buying our turkey (so-to-speak.)

Last week's ad had some great buys including that cheap-o b/s chicken breast (yes, I know you will have leftover turkey for a while, but stock up for the freezer - you will be happy you did when the turkey is a memory and chicken breast is a rip off.)

And in what is kind of a bummer (no different ad overlapping for new sales) it appears that last week's ad is good through December 2nd. What does this mean? Well, it means you have plenty of time to horde chicken, I guess.

It also means I am pretty much done with this post, eh?

Thursday, November 19, 2009

Hot Tip on Mr Potatohead

This from the very deal-savvy Tena:

Toys R Us is having another doorbuster sale this weekend (Fri night/Sat morning) with Mr./Mrs. Potatohead for $3.99. I don't know that TRU takes coupons but Target does, so you could do price matching and use the $2 off coupon here to get a final price of $1.99.

Grocery Circular highlights

A few things very much worth mentioning in the grocery ads this week!


Albertsons:
Follow me here, because I usually don't approve of "if you spend a certain amount" kind of deals, but this one is worth it because of some other good deals available, imo...
$0.35 lb - Honeysuckle Turkeys - if you spend $25.00, limit 1.
$1.77 lb - b/s Chicken Breasts (10 cents more an lb than Sunflower, but if it gets you just to $25.00 for the turkey, it might be worth it.)
$1.49 lb - Assorted Pork Loin Chops
50% off McCormick Spices
$0.77 - PictSweet frozen veggies, 14-16 oz packages (limit 6)
$0.99 lb -Asparagus
$10.00 - for 4 12 packs of Coke products when you buy 4, limit 1 reward per transaction
Also, look for the Buy One Get TWO free coupon for Bar S Bacon on the front of the circular!

King Soopers:
$11.00 - for 4, 12 packs, mix and and match Pepsi, Coke, and 7Up products (when you buy 4)
$3.00 - for 2, Kroger cheeses - bars, shreds, or slices
$0.99 - lb Cooks Shank Portion Hams
$1.00 - for 2, Kroger Broth

Safeway:
eh, I am hard pressed to find anything REALLY exciting.. you tell me if I am wrong.

BTW - all the stores have at least 1 kind of turkey on sale for $0.99 lb, and if you are a Safeway shopper and you do spend 10 bucks there this week, you can get a Safeway brand turkey (up to 16lbs) for $5.88 - if you are going to shop there anyway.

Also, this from the lovely Tena:
"There is a coupon available at Couponsurfer.com for $2 off a butterball turkey. I know some grocery stores in the Denver area (Kings?) are having a sale on them this week."

SF Market Double Ad Wednesday, tipsy ed.

FINE - I admit it.. I have been to Happy Hour. I am NOT sober.
But the show must go on, and Double Ad Wednesday is tomorrow at Sunflower Market, so we must address it, right? Stay with me, kids...

Last week was good - you can review the deals here.

Let's talk this week, because there are some great deals to be found there, and spell-check to save me from totally botching them up...

1st of all, they have come up with a holiday specials ad for Thanksgiving. Find it all here.
Also, if you are starting to think that promising Mother-in-law that you would make the whole dinner, and "don't you worry about a thing" was getting in over your head, they will solve that problem with a complete spread starting at $24.99.. (well, OK that is just for two, so that would be if you promised your sweetie - but $49.99 will save you for a small group.) Check it out in the link above.

Other deals this week:
In Denver check it all out here
$2.99 lb - chuck roast
$1.97 lb - family packs of 85% ground beef (you can find cheaper, but SF Market is great quality!)
$3.00 - for 2 - 5.5 oz packages of blackberries
$0.49 lb - Oranges
$1.00 - 10 Limes Yes, that is 10 for $1.00!
$0.77 lb - Broccoli or Winter Squash
$1.00 - for 2 - Cucumbers
$1.00 - 3 lbs of onions or baking potatoes


What did I miss? Seriously, I've had some cocktails, so tell your fellow Dealers if there are different Deals in your own 'hood or if I have glaring deals missing from the list. Mama has to lay down.
Happy shopping, Dealers!

SF Market Double Ad Wednesday Preview

Was it really already a week ago that I was doing my crazy snow dance and not-so-secretly hoping that none of us could shovel out of our parking spaces to even GET to SF Market for Double Ad Wednesday!?
Time flys, Dealers!!

So there was some good stuff last week, which you can peruse here.

This week has plenty worth mentioning too:

$1.77 lb - b/s chicken breasts - we have recently seen them up to 10 cents lower, but this is pretty darn good!
$1.00 - for 5 Rio Red Texas Grapefruit
$1.00 - for 2 Hass Avocados
$0.29 - lb. Yellow Onions
$0.88 - each, bunches of Spinach, or Red or Green Leaf Lettuce, lbs of soft skin squash
$3.00 - for 2, 5 lb bags of Russet Potatoes


Oh well, I guess the sun does feel kind of nice, doesn't it... But I sure did like that snow day!

Come out for a Denver Tradition

This Sunday is the annual Champagne Cascade at the Brown Palace. It is the perfect way to kick off the season (especially if you are like me, and can't wait for Thanksgiving to start your holiday marry-making each year!)
There is no charge to attend and stand with fellow surfs on the upper floors to bask in the glow of the season and watch the bubbly flow.. If you want to cough up 50 bucks you can be on the 2nd floor in the VIP area, with booze and food included (let's face it, I could easily get through 50 bucks worth of booze and food in that time - it isn't even a challenge.. but I digress.)
Check out the details here, and if you can't make it out for the cascade, then stop by The Brown during the holiday season to see it all decked out in holiday glory.
(The only thing I love more is when the Grand Champion Steer from the Stock Show comes to the hotel for high tea.. ahhhh, Denver...)

Weekender, and a Giveaway!!

Hello, my frozen little Dealers... everyone digging out OK? I pulled out of the parking garage this morning on my way to work, to find a grown man in a FULL bunny costume busting his little puff-ball tail to clean the snow off his car. Floppy bunny ears flapping back and forth as he labored in fleecy warmth against two days of blizzard build up. Any place else I would shout "Happy Halloween" out my window - but it's Capitol Hill, so that may just be what he was wearing to keep warm. :)
What's doin' around town this weekend?

The Denver Post has a good long list of Halloween activities around the metro area - some free, some not, and plenty of great ideas for ghouls of all ages.
__________________________
10/30 - 10/31 - Costumed kiddos eat free this Friday and Saturday at area Sweet Tomatoes restaurants, when accompanied by a paying adult. It seems like all locations are participating, but it is never a bad idea to call ahead before heading out.
__________________________
10/31 - Also, many of the shopping centers around town will have "trick or treat street" type activities happening for the little ones this weekend, including Aspen Grove, which is having a full evening of events on Saturday, including a costume parade for kids AND pets to participate in starting at 5pm, trick-or-treating, hay rides, and all sorts of great FREE fun! See their website for event details.
_________________________
10/31 - Old South Gaylord does a great trick-or-treat street too - from 4pm-7pm, complete with bouncy "haunted castle" and trick or treating on a street closed to traffic. Area restaurants make food available for grown ups, too.
_________________________
10/31 (and beyond) - Run out of candy? Quick, print out these free bowling passes to drop in pumpkin buckets instead (save some for yourself!)
_________________________
10/31 - Chipotle continues their annual Halloween tradition again this year: from 6pm - close, anyone dressed up like a burrito will get a free burrito. So wrap your date in tin-foil and head on over for some cheap eats!
_________________________
11/1- Are you SO OVER the Halloween thing? Visions of Turkeys dancing in your head, (or maybe haunting your nightmares as you imagine trying to cook the perfect bird?)
Then call Williams-Sonoma in Flatirons Crossing Mall (720-887-2900) to reserve your spot for the next class in their series of free hour-long cooking classes, either Sunday, Nov. 1 at 10 am OR Monday Nov. 2 at 6:30 pm. Topics covered range from proper roasting equipment, to ways to flavor the bird and foolproof cooking techniques. Or call your closest William-Sonoma location to check their schedule of available classes.
________________________
Most Farmer's Markets are winding down, and I have to say that this weekend would be a mighty icky time to be squeezing fruit at outdoor stalls anyway, in my opinion.

What did I miss? What fun and frugal Front Range winter activity are you most looking forward to this year? Share yours below and be eligible to win a gift certificate to LaLa's Pizzeria and Wine Bar!! That's right - it is Deals In Denver's first GIVEAWAY, designed to introduce readers to some of MY favorite places to find good deals around town. Signing up for LaLa's FB, Twitter, or VIP texts gives you access to some awesome dining deals, and they have a great Happy Hour as well. Don't miss out on your chance to enter to win. Entries close at midnight on Sunday, Nov. 1, 2009 (MST) and I will randomly generate a winning number and post our winner on Monday morning!

Brave the snow in Gov's Park

LaLa's FB page has a post offering a free glass of wine for those willing to brave the snow and stop in today/tonight.
Mmmm, Lala's - my favoritest place in the world to stare out and watch the snow falling.

Not as deep as the snow, but...

Some thoughts on the snow storm currently blanketing us, from Day to Day.

Stay warm, Dealers!

SF Market Double Ad Wednesday Preview

I am not-so-secretly hoping that I won't be able to get to Sunflower Market tomorrow due to a blizzard of epic proportions hitting the front range tonight, but just in case it "shifts north" (weather person speak for "we got it wrong"? You decide) here are some of last week's deals that are good through tomorrow.

And here are a few from the new ad this week:
4 lbs for $1.00 -Bartlett Pears
$0.77 - Avocados
$077 - lb Squash - Acorn, Butternut, Spaghetti, Kabocha
3 for $1.00 - Cucumbers
$0.77 - Greens: Collard, Mustard, Kale, Turnip
2 for $1.00 - bunch Radishes, lbs Carrots, bunch Green Onions, bunch Parsley

Also, b/s chicken breasts or tenders are $1.97 lb, which isn't bad, but isn't "stock up" pricing for sure. And they have ok pricing on bison, roasts and ground, this week.

You can check out the complete ads here. (But I still hope I can't get any farther than the Liquor Store on the corner of my by tomorrow afternoon - just sayin'.)

Up, Up and AWAAAAAAAY!

Southwest is offering some REALLY great prices on airfares on their website right now. Warning, it is running super slow, so practice some patience to get the best deals!

Get your poetry on!

This from the DenverArts tweetstream:

"Poetry slam TONIGHT! 7PM Denver Public Library main branch. Best slam poets in Denver competing for the Cafe Nuba title. Come listen!"

Bring on the Cheh-per Chicken

"Cheh-per Chicken"...
As Fronk from The Father of The Bride would say - natch. KFC is giving it another go with its grilled chicken giveaway (after the May launch and give away backed by Oprah resulted in a run on grilled chicken at KFC locations across the country.)

I admit it - the grilled chicken IS good. Maybe not "finger lickin good" but that is probably because there isn't a layer of grease left on your hands, which probably means this chicken won't be counted among the things that contributed to your eventual lecture from your doc regarding cholesterol, spare tires, and other topics we all end up shamed about while in our paper gowns. (Maybe.)

Anyhoo - today is that magical day, so head on over to a KFC and try the grilled version of the Colonel's secret recipe for yourself... it is free, and if there is another chicken shortage, you can regale us all with tails from the front lines. Check out the details here.

Out and About - Fashion Denver Event

Can't shake those "where did my weekend go" blues? (Me either.)
Don't see how you will ever, I mean, evehhhh make it though until Friday? (For serious -evehhhhhh.)

I think in these cases it is best to take it day by day. Baby steps, Grasshoppah. (Mixing movie references, I like it, so what?)

So let's all promise to get through tomorrow, somehow. Any which way you can.
Because then we can all go to Fashion Denver in the Golden Triangle and listen to Peggy Sue Richards talk about her design process, and see her fabulous work all while munching on an appie and sipping a glass (or two) of wine. It's like a mini weekend. (OK, it's a blatant bribe - but it will get me out the door tomorrow, and out-and-about tomorrow evening.)

Sunday, October 18, 2009

Don't forget the Denver Marathon winding through the central part of the city as you head out today- Or, get out on this beautiful day and cheer the runners on!

Weekender

WEEKEND, WEEKEND, WEEKEND!!! I am so excited for the weekend! What are you doing this weekend, Dealers? I scored tickets to the Junior League's Annual Holiday Market, so I get to have a day of lunch and shopping/lookie-looing with my mommy!! (That is right, I called her mommy - which I never did until I was in my 20s, but which I always do now. Because even 33 year olds sometimes need their mommies.)

Admission to the event is $8.00 for a one day ticket - so if you weren't lucky enough to snag some freebies, you can still join in the fun. OR - try one of these fun and frugal activities instead:


10/17-10/18 - Since last weekend's bout of icy temps and falling snow put a damper on the Botanic Gardens annual Pumpkin Festival, it was reschuduled for this weekend. Held at the Chatfield Location, there is a small admission fee, but this festival packs in a full day of fun for the cost. Get a rundown of cost and activities on the Botanic Gardens website.
________________________
10/17 - On Saturday grab a can of food (or several) and the fam and head out to Rocky Mountain Arsenal for the Refuge Roundup. They will have lots of free entertainment, hayrides, bison tours (they have some really cutie patootie calves - squee!) and if you want to partake you can purchase a chuck wagon meal. Get directions to the RMA and info about the event here.
______________________
10/17 - Whether you are a young artist or just an art lover, RiNo is the place for you on Saturday - as the district hosts the 2nd Annual Larimer Sidewalk Arts Festival. Artists ages 12-21 are welcome to set up, free of charge on a first-come-first-served basis for space, a display of their art - and to sell it to festival attendees! Head to the event's Facebook page to get more details!

10/10 - Lowe's Build and Grow clinic this weekend let's the kiddos build their own "ball toss" (which my Midwestern friends will surely inform us is a junior version of Cornhole..

You are welcome to bring a kite to fly, or come enjoy the other entertainment and activities as you channel your inner George Banks and "send it soaring."
