Denver Deal: Saucy Restaurant, Carino’s, and KidSpree

The BIG Deal!

As I was putting on the finishing touches to this blog, I received my Oprah Magazine in the mail.  The cover was full of bargains and deals. I couldn’t help but think that we are on the cutting edge of “cool” by looking for deals – JUST LIKE OPRAH!  I have rounded up some great deals for you this week. 

Meal Deals:

Do you like a deal that is not just fast food for the kids? Check out Saucy Restaurant in LoDo on 22nd & Market, kids eat free with the purchase of an adult meal open to close every Tuesday. If you use the secret code “Saucy Mommy” all moms will receive a FREE Signature Saucy Sweet Tea or a local Daz Bog coffee with their meal.

At Johnny Carino’s, family platters are 1/2 price on Monday nights! Family platters include 16-layer lasagna, chicken parmigiana, chicken bowtie festival, shrimp or chicken skilletini and more yummy Italian dishes.  The 1/2 price deal is for dine in only. They have locations in Lakewood, Longmont, Parker, and Westminster.

Summer feels good with Jamba Juice “Summer Feel Good Specials” including  Foodie Friday with $1 pastry or $3 flat bread with the purchase of any menu drink.

Entertainment:

Central City Opera is offering $5 tickets for the Student Summer performances on Friday, July 23 and Saturday, July 24 at 8:15 p.m.  The theme is “Through the Eyes of a Child,” at Williams Stables located across from the Opera House on 113 Eureka St. in Central City. 

KidSpree at Aurora’s Bicentennial Park is this weekend  (July 17 & 18) with hands-on activities like decorating a real car will keep kids busy! Parents will enjoy live music, entertainment, and food. Families will also love the petting zoo, the inflatable jumpers, and more!
