Groupons

Just thought I'd throw this out there....

There is an online company called Groupons (Group + Coupons) that offers daily deals in individual communities at GREAT prices through the power of group buying. It has established itself in most major metro areas and cities and Milwaukee finally has one too! The daily deals feature local businesses that are offering good discounts on their services or products (anywhere from 40 -60% off the regular price.... I've seen it for 70% off a couple times). For example, today the Milwaukee Groupon is offering 2 Adult admission tickets to tour Pabst Mansion for $8. Normally, each individual adult ticket is $9. If you haven't ever toured Pabst Mansion, it's incredible!!! I highly recommend it even just to get a glimpse into part of the history of Milwaukee. It could be a cheap date with your hubby! Tomorrow, the Groupon with change to highlight another business.

Here is the website, check it out!

Just as a heads Up

Hi ladies,

The website is almost complete. The address will change to www.thespectacularwimsy.com by the end of this month. My blog is up and running with 2 posts. The address is;

www.thespectacularwhimsy.blogspot.com


I know many of you have been super kind and have been spreading my business name around by Word of Mouth. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!! If you hear of anyone with a birthday coming up that would like some help with it, please pass my name along. I'm so excited to get this going. Even if I only end up booking 1 party every other month, I'd still be estatic!!! You guys are awesome. Keep posting those amazing deals :)

Weekend Events

A couple ideas for things to do this weekend:

Laura mentioned a while back the Frosty Flicks - $3 family movies at Marcus Theaters. The first one is this Saturday Feb 6 at 10am: Ice Age http://www.marcustheatres.com/Promotion/PromotionDetail/4/

It's another Family Free Day at the Milwaukee County Zoo on Saturday Feb 6. (Brr!!)

Oh and there's Disney on Ice Princess Classics going on this weekend Feb 4-7 (Thurs-Sun). The cheapest tickets are $15 and kids are $10. Go to ticketmaster.com.

We like going to the Home Depot and Lowe's workshops. There's one at Home Depot this Saturday too. 9am-noon. (And they're free.)

That's all I can think of. What else fun is going on in the next week or two?
