Boston Market coupon for Father's Day & other Frugal Dilemmas
Anyone spotted good deals for Father's Day?
I heard about a Boston Market coupon for a free kids' meal with any adult purchase of more than $5 (you can't use it on $5 menu items). Expires at the end of the month, so all parents could get a treat by June 30. Be sure to have the kiddies color in the picture before you turn it in.
Ah, Father's Day ... just makes me grumble. Just another excuse to peddle gifts that play up stereotypes of what dads like: electronics, golf, etc. My frugal father always says not to buy him anything, because he can select items he needs far more skillfully than I can.
Okay, he's obviously at an extreme. But somehow ...
... I do appreciate that I'm not forced to follow the annual ritual of purchasing gadgets from SkyMall or Brookstone.That's not to say I never get him anything. For Christmas I bought him CFLs. And for his birthday I bought him a cantaloupe. I've also handed him purple cauliflower in the past.
