Free Comic Book Day!!!!!

Life has been so crazy around here. That is evidenced by the fact that I almost missed Free Comic Book Day! Free Comic Book Day is tomorrow (May 1, 2010) and you can go to comic book shops and get free comic books. It is that simple! Here in Fresno we have 2 shops that are participating (Heroes and Collectible Zone). Every year they have a variety of comics so you can pick appropriate choices for everyone. This year there are great kid choices! Everything from Shrek, Toy Story, War of Superman and tons more.

Free Chavrie Goat Cheese

This offer is good for someone who has a upc code off of a Chavrie's product. Join Chavrie's "For the love of Goat Cheese" Club for a coupon for free Goat Cheese! You have to enter the upc at registration.

I like goat cheese so much. It is often so pricey that I am going to go out and pick up some cheese so I can get the deal!

If you like a real nice meal and are here in Fresno (and soon some other areas) Restuarant Week is a great options. While it lasts 20 days and not a week, it is put on by Get Dining. Restuarants of various price levels have a set price fixed, 3-course menu. So if you have been wanting to try a fancy place (like Ruth's Chris or Slates) you can get a $34 3-course menu. There are also cheaper menus for cheaper restuarants. NerdDad and I are going out tonight and are thinking about trying Luke's or Richards!
