3. Audubon Society’s Passport to the Trails
Want an incentive to get outside and hike through some of the beautiful trails RI has to offer? The Audubon Society is continuing to run a half price sale on their membership if you missed the Groupon deal from last week.  You can pick up a passport at the nature shop in Bristol, hike the trails to find the hidden symbol, and then return your passport for prizes.

5. AMF Summer Unplugged
This is one of my favorite deals to pass on to you. It’s a great one. Every week you will be emailed passes for 2 free games per day, per child. Really, no strings attached. I did this last summer. We enjoyed it. Our participating lanes are AMF Holiday Lanes in Somerset, not too far.

6. Did you know there was a Lindt factory outlet in Seekonk Square? Me neither but I am so excited. Who doesn’t love up to 70% discounted chocolate? If anyone has been there, I’d love to hear about it!
