Don't know what House Party is? House Party is an great program that helps manufacturers to promote their products by coordinating House Parties! It helps the manufacturer to promote their product while at the same time benefiting the host and attendees of the party by providing them with some fun freebies.

If you apply to host a House Party and you are selected you will get a bunch of FREE items and coupons to help host your party. What a neat way to get a bunch of friends and family together! You can go HERE to learn more about House Party.

Looking for something fun to do with the kids before school is out? WeeklyPlus and Groupon both have some fun deals today:

WeeklyPlus' deal is for $15 for 2 Kids to Zip Line, Rock Climb, Safari Swing & More at Jungle Quest ($30 Value)! This sounds like so much fun...too bad it is only for kids!

Groupon's deal is for $5 for Two Games of Bowling Plus One Pair of Rental Shoes at Brunswick Zone (Up to a $14.81 Value)!

Have any of you been to either of these places? What did you think?

Stop by Lowes with the kids this Saturday (July 24th) morning at 10:00AM and they will be able to to create their very own UFO toy! Just go HERE to get signed up.

Your child will also receive an apron and goggles on their first visit along with a patch for each project they complete.

Keep in mind that these projects are available while supplies last, so I suggest getting there early. Have fun!

For all you local Denver area readers: WeeklyPlus just released a new deal. This time if is for a 60 Minute Specialty Mask from Arpina Salon and Spa in Lone Tree, CO. You'll get to choose any of the masks that Arpina offers including the Charcoal Essence Mask, Brightening Essence Mask, Cucumber Essence Mask, Coenzyme Q10 or the Royal Jelly Essence Mask.

I am such a sucker for these types of deals...it is totally my way to splurge...but hey, that is ok sometimes right?!? When you're saving hundreds of dollars each month, it is acceptable to make a $33 splurge...which is a steal considering these normally go for $80! I've never been to this spa, but the pictures look super nice!

Keep in mind that this deal is for first time Arpina customers only. There is limited availablity on this one...so snag it soon if you want it!

AMC has released an awesome coupon on their Facebook page! It is for any size poproce and fountain drink for just $1 each!

The coupon is only good this Sunday, July 25th. Don't forget to check out my post on how to save money on movie tickets!

I've recently received a few reader e-mails requesting tips on how to save money on family and date nights. Here one way that all you movie lovers out there can save lots your tickets!

Weekly Cinema is a neat company that allows you to receive three movie tickets each month for only $14.99. That is around a 60% savings...which we all know is awesome for the movies! The best part is that on your first month they will give you a FREE movie ticket, scoring you four tickets for just $14.99! Weekly Cinema is partnered with Frandago and provides tickets that are good at over 16,000 movie theaters nationwide.

How does it work? You can redeem your coupon codes at Fandango.com for up to $14 value per ticket towards any movie (even IMAX and 3D movies)! Fandango is accepted at most theaters across the United States. Each month, Weekly Cinema will give you three more tickets.

How many tickets do I get? It depends which offer you chose when you signed up. You get one ticket for signing up and then 2, 3 or 4 tickets per month!

Which movies can I see? Any movie you want as long as it is on Frandago (which most movies are).

When can I cancel and will I be charged? You can cancel anytime, without a cancellation fee. Just make sure to do it at least one day prior to the monthly or quarterly subscription renewal date. To cancel all you need to do is e-mail support@weeklycinema.mojohelpdesk.com . You should receive a confirmation of your cancelation within 48 hours of yourrequest (excluding weekends and holidays). If for some reason you do not, you can call their offices at 1-415-574-0033.

When do I get more tickets? At the beginning of each month.

How can I find out if my theater is included in this deal? Go to Fandango.com and see if there are any Fandango ticketing theaters near you.

I am so excited about this! Talk about an awesome bargain. Lets just say for example you keep your membership for 6 months, and you get three tickets per month...that works out to be 19 movies for $89.94 (only $4.73 per ticket)! If you bought those same 19 movie tickets for full price (lets say $9) it would cost you $171! That means you are saving almost $81.06! Wow! We buy movie tickets through Frandago all the time and we love it...now this makes it even better! My husband and I want to see Despicable Me, and now we can without feeling so guilty!

Here is a neat way to make your little one's day a little extra special!

Have Mickey, Minnie, Donald or Goofy call your home with a personalized message for your child! They can even greet your child by name! All calls will be made between 9:00am and 8:00pm. You even get to pick what time and day you want them to call.

I know a few of you have already done this? What did you think?

There is going to be a FREE MLB Baseball Clinic at the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs on July 24th! There will also be another one in Lakewood, CO on July 31st. The Major League Baseball Players Alumni Legends for Youth will be holding the clinics for children ages 6 to 16. The best part is that it is FREE!

The clinic is limited to 250 kids, so make sure to register soon before it fills up. Other cities including Milwaukee, Chicago, Gary, Los Angeles, Myrtle Beach, and Palm Coast will also be holding clinics throughout the summer, so make sure to check it out!

Tomorrow, July 10, Toys R Us will be holding a Thomas the Train Event between 11:00am and 1:00pm. Kids will be able to enjoy stories, games coloring and special deals!

This should be lots of fun for your Thomas lover! There is also a great coupon HERE for a FREE Thomas Mega Blocks Play-set when you buy one. This should make for a sweet deal when paired with the upcoming sale!
