On Father’s Day, families celebrate Dad for his encouragement, love and strength. However, who says you have to spend a bundle to show your love and appreciation? Most fathers would be proud of their offspring’s money-saving ways. This year, families can enjoy Dad’s Day in the Mile High City with various discounts and freebies around town. Plus, many restaurants are offering a bonus with the purchase of a gift card, so shop around first before getting Dad a gift or dining out with the family.
The deals are valid on Sunday, June 20 (unless noted otherwise) at participating locations, while supplies last. Plus, some of the deals are open to all — not just Dads, Fathers, Pops or Papas. In any case, limit one per person.
Be sure to review the details, before taking Pop out on the town for the day.
Remember, parking meters are FREE in Denver on Sundays, too — click here.
