The Movie on the Field series, presented by the Haunted Field of Screams (10451 McKay Rd.) in Thornton, offers FREE outdoor movies on the field of Colorado’s largest haunted attraction.

What are you doing for lunch? It’s the question we hear just about every day from co-workers and friends, right? Well, MealPal Denver is here to make answering the ubiquitous question easier. Its new subscription lunch service is convenient, low-cost and full of flavorful options.

For a monthly fee starting at $120, workers pick their lunch carry-out in advance. Subscribers get 20 lunches, which breaks down to just $6 per meal. Sounds like a tasty deal to us, given the low-cost and time saved. Part of the low-cost structure means no delivery. You must still go and pick-up your lunch, but we think that’s a good thing. You need to get away from the desk and out in the world — even for just 30 minutes during the day.

To launch the new service, they’re hosting a Launch Party and Tasting on Tuesday, September 26 at 5:30 p.m. Admission is FREE and everyone is invited. The celebration takes place at Modworks Coworking (110 16th St.) in Denver. You must RSVP here. Read on for some of the lunch choices available through the service… [Read more…] about MealPal Denver Launches Service With Free Party & Tasting

Let’s be honest, money is often the leading cause of stress in relationships – but it doesn’t have to be. As part of its Money Coaching program, Capital One is offering a series FREE workshops in Denver aimed at helping couples align their personal values with their money goals at any stage of their relationship – whether they’re starting to plan for the future, saving for a big milestone, or just looking to improve their relationship with money.

To start, Capital One will host Money Matched, a fun, live game show that asks local couples a series of questions that will help them discover how much they know (or don’t know) about their partner’s money values. This interactive event is on Wednesday, October 4 at 5 p.m. at the Capital One Cafe, followed by a “Talk Money With Your Honey” workshop. Refreshments will be served. Space is limited and a RSVP is requested. You can do so here. Note: Capital One will not be talking about any paid services or try to sell you anything at this event. 1550 Wewatta St., Denver.
