This Week's Deals: A Dog's Life, Paint by Numbers, Alley Action and More
Spend a little, save a lot!
Having a daily routine helps keep us organized and on schedule. But this week, we're advocating a bit of spontaneity to shake things up and make life more interesting. Do you go to the movies every Friday? Try your hand at painting instead this time around and unleash your artistic creativity; the folks at the Elk Grove Fine Arts Center would love to have you. Swing by Fat Mike's Pizza after all that brush stroking, pick up a discounted and delicious dinner for the gang and start your weekend with a smile—Change is good!
