Updated: Flu Shots On The Cheap (or Free)

Updated with some free flu shot clinics! This year’s influenza season is turning out to be nasty, with higher than average number of people hospitalized already. If you haven’t had a flu shot, it’s especially important to protect yourself and your family. Immunizations are widely available across the Front Range. For the best deal, check with your insurance plan or doctor to see if you can get one for FREE. In almost all cases, the answer is YES! Pharmacies and clinics can also contact your insurance company on your behalf.

There are two vaccines — the Trivalent (3-strains) and Quadrivalent (4-strains). Adults over the age of 65 may need the High Dose flu shot which does cost even more but is covered by Medicare. For those without insurance, there are options. But, be a good shopper as prices vary widely. [Read more…] about Updated: Flu Shots On The Cheap (or Free)

Pumpkin Patch: Where To Get The Best Deal On Pumpkins?

We searched lots of pumpkin patches for the best price on the orange gourds. There may be sales in the weeks ahead. However, right now, the best regular price we found is at Trader Joe’s — a large pumpkin for just $2.99. Most other grocery stores are selling pumpkins for around $6. (Pumpkins at fall festivals and pumpkin patches tend to be higher in price.) For TJ’s locations, click here. (While there may not be as many convenient locations as other chains, it might be worth a special trip for the savings — especially if you’re buying several pumpkins.) If you find a better regular price, let us know by commenting below.
