As an FYI, when I clicked on my state, those are all SUPER Wal-Marts. Those of you with SWM in your area are lucky! Mine are too far away...

Has anyone been to an All You event before? I can't even find the All You magazine at any of the Walmart's in my area. The only store remotely near me that is having one is in Princeton...it would be a bit of a hike, but I'm wondering if it is worth it? I love Princeton, I guess I could make a day of it.

September 27th must be something special, because here's a link for another freebie! Follow the link to print a pass for free admission for two to one of many, many museums, zoos, and galleries across the country. I'm taking my girls to the Phoenix Zoo, an excursion we could never squeeze out of our budget if we had to pay for admission for the whole family.
(Congratulations on the baby-on-the-way...#3 is where it gets REALLY interesting!)
