Back to School time!

Yay!  It is back to school time – that means we get to go shopping for new school supplies and great back to school outfits!

Consignment Stores
I love going through a friend’s closet….it’s the next best thing to shopping for free.  Consignment stores come in a close second to that!  You can find great designer duds at inexpensive prices.  Not all consignment stores offer kids clothing  – but, we have found some super consignment stores with great kids clothes! 

Goodwill offers all kinds of clothes and other items (including great accessories too!)  Some consignment stores specialize in children’s clothing and other kids items.  Here are just a few: Couture Kids Boutique or Once Upon a Time in Littleton, Faze Two in Lone Tree,  Petite Patoot  in Denver,  Kid to Kid in Aurora, Mommy’s Merry Go ‘Round in Lakewood and  Twice as Nice in Arvada.  And if you have kids that are in fall sports check out the Play it Again Sports near you!

King Tut & Body Worlds:

The Denver Art Museum and Denver Museum of Nature & Science offer a discount for visitors to both shows.  The Denver Art Museum will offer $4 off adult tickets to Tutankhamun: The Golden King and the Great Pharoahs for visitors who present tickets or stubs for BODY WORLD AND The Denver Museum of Nature & Science will offer $4 off tickets to BODY WORLDS & The Story of the Heart for visitors who present tickets or stubs for King Tut.  (Has to be redeemed in person by Aug 15).

Healthy Deal:

Does your student need to have a physical?  For only $35 (through Sept. 30), Take Care clinics in select Walgreen’s locations are a convenient (and inexpensive) way to get that part of your back to school errands done.  They are easy walk-in clinics with no appointment necessary.

SmartCo Grand Opening Party:

SmartCo Foods is celebrating yet another Grand Opening!  This time Centennial (16746 E. Smokey Hill Road, Aurora) location opens on Wednesday, July 28 at 6:00 a.m.  The first 250 customers will get Cash cards (different values from $20 to $100) and a free reusable shopping bag! The celebration also includes activities, entertainment and more.

And as a special treat after you’ve enjoyed your shopping excursion and health clinic, use your Baskin Robbin’s coupons for a buy one get one free soft serve ice cream cone or pull the coupon from this week’s Westword Magazine (free in many grocery store and other locations) for a buy one get one free McDonalds Frappe.

Cheers – until next time!
