With high unenmployment and gas prices, staycations are quickly replacing longer roadtrips to theme parks, mountains, beaches. Many families are turning to local state parks and smaller tourist attractions to replace the more expensive destinations. There is another alternative however, that seems to get overlooked by frugal staycation planners. Factory tours are not just for field trips anymore. A visit to a local dairy or cannery will not only will give you a peek at the manufacturing process but can also be a cheap or often free interactive alternative to a costly children's museum. We decided to brave the cold and get out to visit the local Bush Brother's factory in nearby Cheastnut Hill, TN. My three year old had as much fun there as any children's museum we have visited. Without a doubt, Duke, the talking dog, was his favorite. Some pics from our visit: 
Hidden Car Incentives For JanuaryJanuary 14th 2012 03:43
January can be a great time to buy a new car. Most customers are seeing the damage on their credit card statements from Christmas and car shopping is the last thing they are thinking about. Most of the new models have been out for awhile, which decreases ads and colder weather doesn't exactly bring buyers to the dealerships. This all adds up to great deals for the smart buyer. Some deals are promoted while others are hidden to help the dealers try to make the customer feel they are getting a great deal. As always try to do your research and have more then one model in mind to help find the best deals and don't forget to have your financing taken care of so you can be a chash customer. Good luck!
