Rise and Shine is my way of sitting down and having a cup of coffee with you! We talk about the new deals of the day, highlights from yesterday, and anything else that might help us save time, money or energy. I share with you what’s happening with me – and I LOVE to hear about what’s happening with you.
Good morning! Do you have kids starting school today? We don’t start until next week. Yesterday we stopped into Target, not for school supplies, thankfully. That place was a MAD HOUSE. Did you happen to go to any retailer yesterday? Absolute insanity, at least here in the Northwest. 🙂
If you do decide to head out to do some school shopping here is the list of this week’s Best School Supply Deals. Looks to me like Staples is the place to be this week for the best bargains.
Last night we went to a Seattle #Sounders game against the Portland Timbers. We had the very cheapest tickets you could get, up in the sky with the seagulls, but we had an awesome time. The game broke record attendance, we were there with 67,385 of our closest friends. We parked at the Tukwila International Station and took the Sound Transit light rail into the stadium. We had never done this before, but it was great! We paid $12.50 for all four of us to go round-trip instead of paying, I’m not kidding – $40 near the stadium for parking! AND the kids got the experience of riding the “train” which was fun for them.
If you get there early they have FREE activities for the kids, usually. Like this little kick the ball blow-up structure. I have no idea what it’s called, but it kinda makes up for a popcorn costing $6.50 (although it does have unlimited refills). They also will paint your hair, give you a Sounders tattoo and a bunch of other fun activities. We try to take the kids to at least one game a summer and last night was a great game to attend. Have you been to a Sounders game before? Do you have tips for bringing kids?
