The Denver Center is proud to present the Denver premiere of Mel Brooks’ monster musical Young Frankenstein for a limited two week engagement.  From the creators of the record-breaking Broadway sensation The Producers comes this monster new musical comedy.  A wickedly inspired re-imagining of the Frankenstein legend based on Mel Brooks' classic comedy masterpiece, the story follows bright young Dr. Frankenstein as he attempts to complete his grandfather's masterwork and bring a corpse to life. Together with his oddly shaped and endearing helper Igor, his curvaceous lab assistant Inga, and in spite of his incredibly self-involved madcap fiancé Elizabeth, Frankenstein succeeds in creating a monster -- but not without scary and quite often hilarious complications.

Wine by mail with Free shipping

My Wines Direct is an online wine retailer that ships wine for free.  I've used this as a gift when I'm visiting(since you can't bring wine on flights anymore)  and don't know the area's wine stores or in some cases I do know the wine stores.  For the Memorial Day week-end My Wines Direct is offering special discounts and with code MEM20 you can get an additional $20.00 off!  I've really enjoyed the BBQ Best selection of six bottles.

Eating well in the backcountry -Make your own Dehydrated foods

I like food and I like to eat well.  The food you end up with in the backcountry can be, well, not so good.  When we're out we want simple just add hot water and eat kind of food.  It is quick and easy to make, light weight and easy to clean up after.  After a hard day I don't want to mess with much more than that.  But some of those pre-packaged dinners are filled with crap, and really expensive.  So I make my own for a quarter of the price.  I have a dehydrator that can dehydrate everything from soup to smoothies.  I also will buy fruit when it is on special (mangoes are $1.00 each at City Market this week) and dehydrate it for snacks.  Dehydrated food doesn't look all that good until it is re-hydrated but ohhh it is so tasty and made with all the ingredients you put in it.  I use an American Harvester Dehydrator that has served me well for many years

Had enough of Vail's winter? Ready to fly the coop? Check Kayak

Ready to head out of town?  I've found some really great deals on Kayak.  It checks lots of different sites and lets you know who has the best deals.  You can also do comparative searches with specific sites. I just found an amazing deal on a ticket to Sweden with Vayama, through Kayak.  If you're looking for a hotel we have used the Hotwire name your own price and gotten hotel rooms for $30.00/night(including taxes and fees) in Denver.  You can dictate how many stars you want your hotel to have and what neighborhood.  Of course the fewer stars the cheaper you'll get.  We've ended up at some nice "long term stay" hotels that even have a little kitchenette.  Now with all the money you've saved think of all the fun things you can do with it on vacation.

Dishing out the deals in the Vail Valley at Dish and Eat

Dish Restaurant in Edwards is doing 35% off the entire bill until the 5th of June.  Head over for a sangria and a small plate and spend almost nothing.  And on Friday evenings Eat, right down stairs is doing grilled Eaton Ranch burgers and a Bitburger beer for just $5.00 out on their patio. Soak in the the last rays of the day as you relax out on the patio with your burger and beer an then head up stairs to finish off the evening.  Dish can get busy so it is a good idea to make a reservation 970.926.3433. 

Signing up for emails can get you discounts

There are lots of benefits to signing up for email notices from some of your favorite retailers.  But there is the con of having your email box overflowing with junk.  But you can always set up an email account with yahoo, gmail or hotmail that is dedicated to junk.  You can check it when you have time and just delete everything when you don't have time to deal with it.  At Basegear (an outdoor gear shop) you can get 20% off retail when you sign up.  I have continued to get 20% off everything I order from them unless it is already on sale.  They offer free shipping on orders of $50.00 or more
