With a little forethought and creativity you can have some great fun with your family for free/almost free. Here is what our family did this weekend:
Saturday: Family Night

- Columbus Crew Pro Soccer Game: 5 FREE tix (1 from oldest soccer team, 4 from Kroger Dairy Rewards Catalina)
Sunday: DH Birthday Celebration (babysitting courtesy of Grandparents)
- 2 AMC Movie Tickets: FREE (Used $7.50 discounted ticket coupon from Entertainment book and AMC gift card purchased with $25 Walgreens credit check from transferring a perscription).
