Free Smoke Alarm and/or Carbon Monoxide Detector for St. Paul Homes. Sign up for the St. Paul Fire Department Project Safe Haven and you’ll receive a safety checklist and a short form to fill out when finished with your safety check. After completing the checklist, firefighters will make a courtesy visit to your home to make sure your smoke alarms work and will install a free smoke alarm and/or digital carbon monoxide detector, if needed. Program is open to St. Paul owner-occupied single family homes (including townhomes and condos). Call 651.228.6273 for more information or to sign up. (Thanks, Babs!)

Your turn: Where do you go to get smoke alarms and/or carbon monoxide detectors for your home?


The Gas coupon fine print says coupon valid in WI & MI not MN Miss print ??
Tami – I’m not sure. It looks as though the coupon will take $0.75 off the total gas purchase in WI and MI and $0.05 off each gallon in MN. Maybe different states have different restrictions.
thank you for the response- i do not see MN on the coupon but will give it to my brother to try ?? we live in NE Mpls.
Thanks for the coffee coupon. Looked for one last Friday to no avail. Would have been the perfect addition for our road trip to “almost Canada”.
Hi,
I happened a upon this and it reminded me of the program the Spring Lake Park, Mounds View, Blaine Fire department does. The contact person is Becky Booker. Her email is bbooker@sbmfire.com. I have also contacted her about your website. Hopefully something can be arranged. I live in Blaine, and had her home inspection – it was great and we got some great free things on top of it!
