  3. Chicago Disney Live! Mickey Music Festival coming to Chicagoland- Ticket Discounts...(more) 2-11-2013 11:55am (0 replies)
    Our kids are crazy for everything Disney, so I thought I’d pass along information on discounted tickets for the new show Disney Live! Mickey’s Music Festival coming to the Akoo Theatre at Rosemont March 15-17. There are two ways to save on tickets: (1) tickets for the opening night performance on Friday, Mar. 15 at 7 pm are just $15, and (2) save $5 on tickets to four different shows including Mar. 16 at 1 pm and 7 pm or Mar. 17 at 11 am or 5 pm. Use code MOM2 to receive savings (not valid on VIP seats, limit of 8 tickets per order, no double discounts). Select your performance at http://www.ticketmaster.com/venueartist/32892/1535755 and enter the code into the “Advance or Promotion Ticket Selection” box. Mickey Mouse and friends rock the world with the stars in their new touring show Disney Live! Mickey’s Music Festival. Disney hits are remixed to the hottest sounds of today featuring hip hop, pop, swing

  4. Chicago Ticket Discount Code for Monster Jam coming to Chicagoland in February...(more) 1-14-2013 9:13pm (0 replies)
    Our kids love Monster Jam trucks and I appreciate saving money on tickets to events our whole family can enjoy, so I wanted to pass along a ticket discount code for the Advance Auto Parts Monster Jam coming to Allstate Arena February 8-10. Kids’ tickets are always just $10, which is a savings of more than 50% off, so the show is already affordable, and with the code MOM2 you can also save 33% on adult tickets. Just select the performance you want to attend when purchasing tickets (http://www.ticketmaster.com/venueartist/32958/807285) then enter the code MOM2 in the “enter offer code/password” box, click OK and save 33% on adult tickets to any show on February 9 or 10. Tickets for the show on Feb. 8 at 7:30 pm are already just $10 for kids and adults, so this event is really affordable (and really fun!) All savings are valid on $21 tickets, but there are also great seats available on a limited basis for VIP and Gold Circle. Tickets have sold out in advance for every show the last th
