Eat, drink, be merry during a recession

My colleague Tom Horgen and I must be on the same wavelength. I started this post on Friday. This weekend he had a story on where to find “The New Deals” (get it?) on entertainment.
Here are two that aren’t mentioned in his story.
The Guthrie is bringing back its excellent food and play deal — “Beer, Burgers and the Bard” –for The Two Gentleman of Verona. $30 bucks gets you a Summit, sliders and a ticket to the play. I took advantage of this deal to see the Government Inspector and I admit that my favorite part of the night was sitting outside on the patio outside Cue with a cold beer and about the best brat I’ve ever had.
Looks like the first night sold out already so they’re offering the deal again on St. Patty’s day (better make that free pint a Guinness).
Ka-Blog reader Nancy brought the next deal to my attention. You and a friend can eat free food, drink free wine, and hang out at The Bakken Museum for $7 next Tuesday? That’s for 2 of you! There’s a DJ too. Here’s the scoop.
Don’t keep the good deals to yourself. Share, share, share!
