Thanks Jenn!

When I was a kid a good mac and cheese topped the list of my favorite foods.  I passed this love on to my kids.  What makes a good Mac and cheese better is when it's free so I took my kids over to Leona's where they're giving away free mac and cheese lasagna through the month of June in support of National Children's awareness month.  To get this free treat each child needs to bring in a coupon (click here) to any Leona's location and eat in the main dining room with a paying adult.  This offer is good until the end of June.   By the way, I still love mac and cheese.  I'm just a big kid after all! 

How do you show your love for dear old Mom?  Most people have a celebration on Mothers Day. Some people send flowers, cards and chocolates.  Others take her out to brunch or dinner.  However, there are those who aren't satisfied with just one day a year to celebrate Mom.  Some of these people get a permanent tatoo!  What better way to show Mom you love her every day of the year?   The folks at Kentucky Fried Chicken agree! 

KFC is having a daily give away now through Mothers Day for a chance to win a $10.00 gift check for Mom.  The check can be used toward Kentucky Grilled Chicken.  Be one of the first 200 people to register each day between noon and 4:00pm Eastern Time and you'll win a gift check for Mom.  You can also enter a sweepstakes to win a motorcycle or a family vacation for Mom by following this link.   Sending a photo of your tatoo is encouraged, but not required.         

Who says there's no such thing as a free lunch?  Not Kentucky Fried Chicken and certainly not Oprah!  Oprah and Kernel Sanders are combining forces to offer a  coupon for an entire free meal.  It includes two pieces of Kentucky Grilled Chicken, two sides, and a biscuit.  Today is the last day you can print the coupon out but it's valid until 5/19/09, excluding Mothers Day.  Click here to print the coupon.  Hey it's free, good for you and fun!  How can I refuse?

 

Warmer weather means more roadtrips.  More roadtrips mean you'll want to get your car in tip-top shape while not spending top dollar.  White Glove Car Wash located at 1415 W. Shakespear, is offering a car care bargain.  Get your oil changed for $13.99(that's $5.00 off regular prices) and they'll throw in a a coupon for a free inside out car wash that can be redeemed within seven days of the oil change.  Now that's what I call a squeaky clean deal!    

Bring three of your friends and explore 14 acres of exhibits at Chicago's Museum of Science and Industry.  Beat those winter blues with a value package for groups of four.  You need to go to their http://www.msichicago.org/, print the coupon and bring it to the ticket office.  For $60.00 four  guests get general admissions and omnimax combo tickets.  You must have the coupon to get the deal.
