I love to visit museums when I travel – so interesting and you get to experience more of the local culture.
I found this great free website, http://freemuseumday.org/cities.html that lists major US cities and each city shows the days that the museum is free in the town.
I found out that at the Seattle Children’s Museum the last hour of every weekday (4:00pm – 5:00pm), they accept any amount of payment for regular admission to the Museum. Your family simply pays what you can afford to enter and play.
Other major cities include:
Boston
Chicago
Los Angeles
New York
Portland
San Francisco Bay Area
Seattle Area
I hope they add Canada soon!
I love my new hometown, Victoria, BC. They have a nice promotion each year, where you get free or discounted admission and goodies for the price of a membership passport card.
The event runs from Feb. 27 to March 2 in 2014.
This year’s passport costs $12.50. It’s a great deal, even if you use a few coupons.
If you are thinking of a trip to come to Victoria, BC it is a good weekend to come – lots of action in town.
Complimentary admission to Butchart Gardens is in the passport (value of $22.85 for adults and $11.45 for youth).
Many of the attractions are available on March 1 and 2 only, like Shaw Ocean Discovery Centre, Butterfly Gardens, and Miniature World.
Enjoy!

Why can’t all safety videos be part entertaining and part educational?
For anyone that hasn’t seen it, Air New Zealand just unveiled their latest safety video, which is filmed with Sports Illustrated Swimsuit models in the Cook Islands.
I am surprised I didn’t see any appearance by any of the All Blacks!

I am a big fan of no-fee chequing accounts and I have used PC Financial for years but this is an intriguing offer.
Here is how the offer works.
Earn 20,000 Aeroplan Miles when you open an All-Inclusive or Unlimited Personal Chequing Account at TD by March 31, 2014 and complete two of these three transactions through that account: Direct deposit, Pre-Authorized debit, Online Bill Payment, by May 19, 2014.
