Fall is my favorite time of the year, for many reasons, but
mainly because there are SO many great family activities around here to do, and
for little to no cost!
Breckenridge Farms in Linkwood, MD is offering a $2 discount
on admission to their 9+ acre corn maze.
But, they also have a pick your own pumpkin patch and hay rides. One of my kids favorite place to visit is Adkins
Farm Market in Salisbury. They have a
BOGO free admission to their corn maze/play area. They also have a fall decorating bundle for
$25, which includes ½ bale straw, 1 bundle of corn stalks, 1 large pumpkin, 2
small pumpkins, gourds, and 2 mums. But
hurry, these places close for the season at the end of October. There’s a new garden store just down the road
from me, and I can’t wait to stop there, Pop’s Garden & Hardware in
Princess Anne. They have pumpkins and
mums for fall, but will also have Christmas trees and wreaths when the time
nears. But, they also have year round
hardware & equipment rentals available.
Check out the 15% off coupon (with purchase) located on page 28.
Because Christmas is nearing, that means there are tons of
upcoming craft shows in the area. The 26th
annual Christmas Craft Fair sponsored by the Quota International of Salisbury
will be held on Oct 27-28 at the Civic Center.
A Christmas Craft Expo at the Ocean City convention center will be held
on Nov 3 & 4. You can get $1 off
adult admission with the coupon on page 37 and
be entered in a drawing for a $300 shopping spree! Berlin hosts a Victorian Christmas starting
on November 23 and running through Jan 1.
Activities include a tree lighting ceremony, breakfast with Santa &
reindeer, a parade and a New Year’s Eve celebration. The 30th annual Holiday Shoppers
Fair in Ocean City is scheduled for November 23-25 with an admission fee of
only $3. What a great way to get a jump
start on your holiday shopping!
Having a holiday party and need a place to hold it? Check out 2012 Restaurant of the Year, Mister
Paul’s Legacy, in Salisbury (the old Webster’s
1801) as a venue. Enjoy BOGO ½ off

They offer family style fried chicken on Tuesday nights, karaoke on

Center. It costs just $25 per person and

Absolutely! Every 90 seconds,
someone dies from cardiac arrest, and you could prevent that by taking one of
the upcoming First Aid/CPR classes sponsored by the American Heart Association
and Somerset County Department of Emergency Services.
Snacking is one of my downfalls, and are there some awesome
snack coupons in this Frugals edition!
