Boston Store Clearance

Boston Store is having a great clearance sale right now. Yesterday, I snagged a formal dress tagged at $120 for $5. Got a pair of designer jeans for Jake for $15. They had a decent selection of winter boots if you want something for next year (and the rest of this year). Yellow tag is 70% off of clearance. Awesome!

Free Days at Art Institute of Chicago

Beginning in June, the Art Institute of Chicago will offer free admission all day on the first and second Wednesday of the month.  If you haven't been, it is a fabulous museum--definitely worth a day trip.  If you don't want to wait 'til then, children under 14 are always free, and adult admission is $18.  Parking is another factor, though, and will cost you at least $25.  But who can put a price on cultural awareness?
