Marc’s Coupon Match Ups!

by 1 Comment

This is Rachel’s mom and I’d like to give a BIG shout out to the employees at the Elyria Marc’s Store!  When I was there Friday morning taking pictures, I had to stop and ask different employees where certain items where located.  Not only did they help me, they stopped what they were doing and walked me to the correct  aisle where the item was.

Of course, I had to stop at customer service and let the manager know what great employees he had!   Most of the time the only customers who want to see the manager are customers who complain, so I think I made his day!!  Make sure if you get great service, that you ask for the manager and let him/her know! They’ll thank you for it!

Our Evening at IX Trick or Treat Street

by Leave a Comment


During the Halloween season I was able to host a giveaway to I-X Trick or Treat Street in Cleveland, Ohio.  Thanks to the excellent promotion on all the kiddie channels, my children begged us to go!

This year was the first time we attended and my kids had a blast.  This spooktacular event with rides and candy is definitely geared towards the 10 and younger.  This worked perfect for our boys who are 2, 4, and 6.


As soon as we walked in, my boys had a difficult time deciding what to do first.  Rides, candy, or food…. the rides won!  Off we went to get on as many rides as possible.  It wasn’t too busy so there were a few that didn’t have any lines at all.  They even rode some a few times!  They did have a putt-putt golf and pony ride area that were an extra cost but we didn’t do either of those.

One activity that was a family favorite was the 3-D Mystery Manor.  We were offered 3-D glasses (which we all wound up taking off) then walked around in a semi-dark maze.  While there wasn’t anything scary popping out some younger children may get a little scared.  One of our favorite parts of the Mystery Manor was the upside down room.  They got a kick out of seeing everything on the ceiling.

After riding, it was time to head over to the Trick or Treat area.  While we brought our own pails the boys were given bags too.  What a great idea for families that forgot.   While we walked through 12 candy stations we all enjoyed the decorations.  There was so much to see!


Before we left we were able to do one more thing that was on everyone’s list…meet Garfield!  My boys were so excited (even though it doesn’t look like it … ha ha!) and I’m sure Garfield was too!

Disclosure:  I was given tickets to attend this event but all opinions are mine.
