    Love the posting time ~7:30am, to kick off the day! Incredible amount of covering Denver and highlighting holidays. When I was looking for fireworks around 4th of July, only because of MHOTC did I get to experience Infinity Park. A perfect free event on 7/2, laying on the lawn watching the film “F1” (starring Brad Pitt), having a picnic (and there were goodies for purchase, i.e. ice cream) followed by fireworks above our heads. Spectacular!

    I have been a subscriber and follower of MHOTC for a few years now and it’s such a great resource for folks in a budget who still want to find affordable entertainment and not let tight finances prevent you from going out to dinner or festivals. The only problem I’ve had with the website is that I no longer get the daily newsletter for some strange reason.

    I love Mile High on the Cheap because of the amazing experiences it shares. Notably, I love the memories I create with my family over the past decade by simply having a movies night.

  139. Elizabeth Finfgeld says

    November 14, 2026 at 11:47 am

    The first e-mail that I open each morning is MHOTC’s daily newsletter because I can almost always find a budget-saving idea that will enhance the quality of my life. For example, ‘Name Your Own Price’ tickets (to select performances of the opera and ballet) are only on my radar thanks to this website – I couldn’t possibly attend cultural events like that without a significant discount. I’m very grateful for this thoughtfully curated resource since it’s exposed me to many interesting and fun types of entertainment that I might have otherwise ruled out due to prohibitive costs.

  140. Tamara says

    November 14, 2026 at 11:48 am

  142. Erin says

  145. Valerie says

    November 14, 2026 at 12:32 pm

    MHOTC has helped me feel human by allowing me to enjoy treats, many take for granted, that I otherwise wouldn’t be able to such as eating out, going to the movies or fun events around town.

    I lost my job several years ago and have been working through a series of medical issues ever since. Being single with no income in an expensive state is depressing but the freebies I find on this site help lift my spirits and cheer me up by making me feel included in society.

    Thank you for the access to information and resources that make a meaningful difference in my life and go a long way mental health wise.

  146. Angie Glass says

    November 14, 2026 at 12:34 pm

    Each year, beginning Dec. 1, I tell friends to visit your Mile High on the Cheap website (and sign up for your daily emails) so that they can receive the listing of mostly free Christmas light locations. I love this feature as it is an updated informational source complete with colorful photos, addresses and other relevant information. What a fun, family way to save money during the holiday season!

  155. Marie says

    November 14, 2026 at 1:33 pm

    MHOTC informed me about the free nights at the museums in Denver earlier this year! I was able to save over $75 in museum ticket costs on one night alone for several museums that I had been wanting to visit as a new resident. Thank you so much for helping make Denver a more affordable place to live, MHOTC!

  159. Jillian says

    November 14, 2026 at 2:06 pm

    For many years, I have benefited from the email you send out with all the deals. There’s usually about one a week or more suggestions that helps save money. Most recently my son and I were able to attend the Denver Christmas Show using the discount from your organization! Thank you for all you do to help people find great events and save money!

  162. Betty Low says

    November 14, 2026 at 2:08 pm

  164. Mark Shapard says

    November 14, 2026 at 2:11 pm

    I have been a daily reader of Mile High On The Cheap emails going back 17 years. I always check my email right at 7:30 when the daily email is distributed. I have had a very fun time with my twin daughters, now 28, over the year checking out all the discounted or free food offerings, plus the entertainment deals. It’s been such a fun family activity. It didn’t happen in 2026, but the best money saver that I ever learned from MHTC was getting First row center $10 tickets , fees included, to the last Hamilton run at the DPCA.

  165. Jennifer Reed says

    November 14, 2026 at 2:23 pm

  166. Rita Guy says

    November 14, 2026 at 2:48 pm

    Since moving to Colorado several years ago, MHTC has been my go-to site for everyday happenings, and places to eat and ways to save. I check my email daily to see what events are going on and how to save money and any deals on everything in Denver. Without MHOTC, we would be at a loss as what Denver has to offer us. Thank you sincerely, it means so much to be informed on all things Denver.

  167. D says

    November 14, 2026 at 3:08 pm

  177. Sarah Huber says

    November 14, 2026 at 4:49 pm

    I’ve been checking MHOTC daily for at least five years, and over that time, you’ve saved me not hundreds but thousands of dollars. Not only do I save on groceries and household essentials thanks to your rounds-up, but a couple years ago, one of your posts led me to the Lucky website, and I won ticket to see Hamilton with my daughter. It made her entire Christmas, and I will always read your site with gratitude.
