Denver Deal: Michael’s, Lowe’s, Qdoba, CarePilot and more

Denver Deal: Michael’s, Lowe’s, Qdoba, CarePilot and more

I was recently offered the opportunity to take my kids to The Uber Sausage located on Colfax and Detroit. I have to admit I am absolutely an adventurous eater – but I was not really sure what to expect from a place called the Uber Sausage. But I went. I honestly LOVED the place and want them to build another one near me (I was sort of sad to hear that the next one will be in Boulder).

The fun little shop located across the street from East High School is owned by East grads and brings Swiss street food to light right here in Denver! The amazing sausage is crafted locally and then the creations are made into sausage sandwiches. I had the spicy southwestern buffalo bratwurst (made with seasonal berry chipotle sauce, mixed cabbage and queso fresco). It was served with the most amazing apple coleslaw. The kids tried Chicago-style dog and a mac and cheese hot dog. They had the homemade chips that you are encouraged to spice on your own with one of seven seasoning/spice blends. It’s downright addictive – I’m looking for another reason to be on the corner of Colfax and Detroit soon!

Score Big Tickets

ScoreBig is a NEW discount ticket website that promises you will save 10% to 60% on Denver/Boulder events. They aren’t a ticket broker or middleman, but work directly with venues, teams, and promoters to move extra tickets. Here’s how ScoreBig works: They get tickets to all kinds of events (mostly sports).  Select the event, the seating area and bid. If your bid is accepted, you are notified instantly, they charge your credit card and deliver the tickets. If not, you can bid again at a later date, or in some cases, they’ll send a counter offer. No extra fees. It’s FREE to become a member, but ScoreBig is an invite-only site but as a reader of MileHighMamas you are now officially invited when you visit our special link.
