Celebration Weekender

Happy Birthday to us!! Deals in Denver is one year old today. My how time flies when you're saving money!

There are lots of fun and frugal things to do on our birthday weekend, here are a few ideas:

4/2 - It is Kids' Art Club project day on Fridays at Meininger Art Supply Stores - 4:30 - 5:30 pm. Each week the kiddos can make a new project at no charge - all supplies provided! A parent must remain at the Store to supervise your little one. This week is a cool butterfly project, check it out here.

4/2 - It is First Friday in Denver's art districts, with lots great 'hoods to choose from. Go here for a good list of them.

4/2 -4/3 - The Highlands Ranch Version of the Just Between Friends consignment sale is this Friday and Saturday, with Saturday being a half price sale. All kinds of baby and children's items will be up for sale at great prices - to find out more about JBF sales and get hours and directions, visit their website.

4/3 - Speaking of butterflies, at Home Depot's Kid Workshop this Saturday, you and Jr. can build a butterfly house for your yard or patio. The little ones also get a pint-sized orange Home Depot apron, and an achievement pin. Check out their website for all the information.

4/3-4/4 - Kids under 12 eat free at Qdoba on Saturday and Sunday with a paying adult, which is a great excuse to take the family for a little fiesta! It is never a bad idea to call and ask if your favorite location is participating, but this one is a pretty safe bet.
