Have you been to the Denver Zoo recently? Maybe you are looking to check out the Toyota Elephant Passage Exhibit…if you haven’t had a chance to experience this yet, it is pretty cool. 
Taking a family to the zoo can be pretty pricey, so I’m always on the lookout for ways to save a few dollars when we go. I was pretty excited to hear that participating Wendy’s restaurants will be offering coupons for $4 off single daytime admissions to the Denver Zoo!
Not only will you be able to save $4 on admissions, but you can also enter to win a Behind the Scenes Tour of Denver Zoo’s new exhibit, Toyota Elephant Passage, including private animal encounters and training demonstrations. How sweet would that be?!
Quick Tip: These coupons will only be available at participating Wendy’s locations, so if you are planning a special trip I recommend calling ahead to verify that have them before venturing out.
Getting into summer mode with today’s beautiful Colorado weather? Join me next weekend in Centennial, Colorado to get your meal time in shape for the busy summer months! I’ll be sharing lots of great tricks for snacks on the go, quick on the grill meals, slow cooker tips and MUCH more!
Meal Time Simplified: Saturday, May 4th 10:00am-1:00pm at the Koelbel Library

Denver Restaurant Week will start in just a few days on February 23rd! If you are planning a date night or just want to try out a new restaurant, this is the perfect time to do so!
What is Denver Restaurant Week?
Denver Restaurant Week is a two-week celebration of the culinary scene in Denver. Participating restaurants will offer a multi-course dinner for the fixed price of $52.80 for two, or $26.40 for one (not including tax or gratuity).
What restaurants are participating?
There are tons of top of the line restaurants participating again this year. You can view the entire list here. You can also use this guide to find a participating restaurant in your area or this guide to view restaurants by cuisine.
My favorites?
I try to visit at least one restaurant during Denver Restaurant Week each year. I think it is a great way to support the local economy and try out a new restaurant at the same time. Here are a few of the restaurants that I’ve enjoyed over the past couple of years:
Bombay Clay Oven
Appaloosa Grill
BRIO Tuscan Grille
Maggiano’s Little Italy
Hacienda Colorado
Aquarium Restaurant
Ocean Prime
Oceanaire Seafood Room
Landry’s Seafood Restaurant
Del Frisco’s Double Eagle Steak House
Denver ChopHouse and Brewery
The Capital Grille
La Sandia
The Melting Pot

Here is a great deal on a fun family activity for all of our Denver readers! Groupon is offering 50% off admission to the Colorado Railroad Museum Santa Express Event in Golden. You will be able to choose from 2 different options:
- $15 for a Santa Claus Special family pass, valid for two adults and two children younger than 16 (a $30 value)
- $10 for Santa Claus Special admission for one adult and one child (a $20 value)
- Expires Dec 22, 2012
- Limit 1 per person, may buy 1 additional as a gift. Limit 1 per visit. Valid only for option purchased. Must use promotional value in 1 visit. Available dates are 12/8, 12/15, 12/16, and 12/22.
I love it when we can save some extra money on activities that are fun for the whole family! Here are all the details of what you can expect at this event:
At the special holiday event, youngsters can drop their holiday wish lists in the museum railway’s post-office car, in exchange for a special RailCard keepsake; each list is later hand stamped and delivered to Santa. Between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. each day, kids can also share their wishes with Santa and Mrs. Claus directly at the Depot General Store, where they can congregate to sip hot chocolate and browse railroad toys. Meanwhile, the museum’s steam locomotive departs every half hour between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., with its historic passenger cars decked out in holiday accoutrements.
The event runs December 8, 15, 16, and 22 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., with Santa and Mrs. Claus present between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. on those days. Children aged 2 and younger enter for free.
There are 2 days left on this Groupon special offer, but close to 300 have already sold, and most times local events have a limited number of Groupons available, so if this is something that interests you I wouldn’t wait to snag one.

Remember, when the Rockies win, so do you! Papa John’s is once again offering 50% off your entire online order to all the fans in the Denver metro area! You will need to enter coupon code ROCKIES at checkout.
This promotion is only valid the day after a Rockies win, so you will need to use it today, September 5th. It is also not valid in combination with any other special offers, so it will only work with full-priced online orders.
You can check out all the details over on the Papa John’s Colorado Facebook Page, and will need to give this one a try for yourself, as most Denver metro Papa John’s locations will be participating, but not necessarily all of them.
