Not Just Groceries, Bargains Are Everywhere

There are grocery deals, movie deals and free take out to get in on this weekend.

There are so many great deals going on in the area this weekend, I just have to spread the word before I tell you the best deals at the new sale that starts Thursday. 

Visit Panda Express on Friday between 11 a.m. and 8 p.m. You can score a two-item meal with a drink for free. Panda Express on Riverstone Parkway is partnering with Boys and Girls Club of Cherokee County and is requesting donations to this organization in exchange for the free meal. 

Customers can get a free kids meal with the purchase of an adult meal coupon at Moe's Southwest Grill.  We do not have one right here, but if you cross over into neighboring cities, you will be able to get in on this deal. The website says that there are just under 6,000 available at the time of writing, so print this coupon as soon as you have a chance and get your free kids meal. Print your  Moe's Free Kids Meal Coupon and use it before it expires on March 13.

If you are headed to the movies this weekend, be sure to print this coupon first. For $2, you can get a Zap pack which includes a drink, popcorn and a treat.  This is good at UA, Regal, and Edwards theaters.   If you have kids, be sure to check out the new Barbie Movie for $2.
