Be sure to check out the local deals post from earlier this week for more events going on this weekend.

Your turn: Which of these deals are you planning to get?

Diva Days in Downtown Anoka
Today and tomorrow (Friday and Saturday) is Diva Days in downtown Anoka. Women can enjoy two days of giveaways, Blingo, special events and shopping, plus free goodie bags for the first 50 customers on Friday and Saturday from 10-11am at the old Post Office building. Some events are free, others have a charge – check the Diva Days website for more information.

Free First Saturday at the Walker Art Center
This Saturday is Free First Saturday at the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis. Gallery admission is free from 10am-5pm, and special family activities are scheduled from 10am-3pm. The popular Lifelike exhibition appeals to both children and adults.

Cub4Kids Spring Mother’s Day Event
Saturday, 5/5 from 11am-2pm, Cub Foods stores will hold a free Cub4Kids Spring Mother’s Day event. The event will include activities where kids can make a craft for their mothers (craft may vary by location).

Heart of the Beast Puppet Theatre MayDay Parade
Heart of the Beast Puppet Theatre holds their 38th MayDay Parade on Sunday, 5/6 at 1pm in Minneapolis. The parade is followed by the MayDay Ceremony and Festival in Powderhorn Park.

2 VIP Tickets to Diana Exhibit
If you’ve been meaning to go to the Diana: A Celebration exhibition at the Mall of America, you’ll be happy to hear that you can get a Mother’s Day special through Ticketmaster: two VIP tickets for $35 total (a $12 savings, but you will have to pay an additional convenience charge and taxes). This exhibition celebrates the life and work of Diana, Princess of Wales and contains nine galleries with over 150 objects.

Although this is advertised as a Mother’s Day special, tickets can be purchased for any date until the exhibition closes on June 10. Tickets are regularly priced at $23.50/VIP, $21.50/adult, $17.50/senior, $13.50/child.

$5 Pizza for $3 on Monday, 5/7
Local pizza chain $5 Pizza is offering their pizzas for just $3 on the first Monday of the month. This month, that Monday falls on 5/7. I would call your nearest $5 Pizza to make sure they are participating in the promotion.

    FYI, just called the Ramsey, MN $5 pizza to see if they were participating in this deal and they said this deal has been CANCELLED throughout ALL of their stores!!!

    WRONG – made a special trip to try the 3.00 pizza deal, and the lady working there said NO they dont offer that deal. NO BODY DOES. please research these deals BEFORE posting them, and no, the breadsticks were not free, you needed a coupon, AND THE PIZZA WASNT EVEN THAT GOOD.

    Disappointed.

      Carrie – I apologize for our mistake and ask you to forgive me for the incorrect information. We do our best to verify every deal in advance of posting it – whether that is a validation via a company's website, from an email they have sent us or some other way. It seems as if the $3 pizza deal, which had been an on-going promotion, expired and we weren't aware of it. I understand that walking into a store and not having your expectations met is frustrating. I'd be frustrated too. I ask you to forgive us. We really do our best to help the community-at-large save money, but in the process I do make an occasional mistake. This is one of those times.
