Free Museum Day - September 25, 2010

Saturday, August 14th, 2010

Once again, the Smithsonian is offering free admission to various museums this Fall.  There is a limit of one pass (good for two people) per household, and you must request your tickets in advance.  More information is available here:  http://microsite.smithsonianmag.com/museumday/

This is going to make a great cheap homeschool field trip!  There are quite a few participating museums within driving distance of my house!

Borders Summer Reading Program

Friday, May 14th, 2010

Do you have children 12 or under who like to read?  Head over to Borders.com and print out this form to earn a free book this summer.  Offer ends 8/26/10, so get busy reading!

Also, many public libraries also offer summer reading programs with rewards.  Last year, my children were able to earn free kids’ meals, zoo passes, and museum passes through our library’s program.  Make sure to check out your local library too!

You can create three free 5 x 7 photo cards at Shutterfly and just pay shipping with code CARD4GRAD.  Shipping was $1.05 total for me, which is pretty awesome for three nice, customized cards.  Dad and both Grandpas are going to enjoy these Father’s Day cards!  This offer ends May 19, but make sure to check out their special offers page for other deals on customized photo gifts!
