Confession: I’m not a perfect bargain hunter. There are times when I throw caution to the wind and spend freely without my usual due diligence–like when I’m traveling and when I’m at the State Fair. Traipsing half-way across the fairgrounds to save a buck for a once a year event just isn’t going to happen on my watch.

Other than the Blue Ribbon Bargain Book ($5) and Thrifty Thursday deals (today), I’m outta ideas. Except for one: Kids eat for $1.50 at Giggles campfire Grill in the North Woods area near Cooper St. and Randall Ave . (I-8 on the locater map). The meal includes three large chicken nuggets, a bag of mini-carrots and a raspberry sorbet or cookie (no drink).

Other than the freebies, what’s the best fair deal that you’ll walk a mile to? Does such a deal even exist?
