New Purpose

We here at Cheap in Toronto have decided to expand the focus of this blog. We would like to bring all of the tips and techniques we use to save money to the people of the internet. Also, as my husband and I are trying to be a little more environmentally conscious, we thought we would share this experience, and hopefully influence some of you to go a little greener as well!!!

Toronto Freedom Festival, May 2nd.

Saturday May 2nd is the Toronto Freedom Festival at Queen's Park. Admission is free. The Festival offers vendors, speakers and music, and is aimed at socially conscious individuals! Also, join fellow attendees in the 11th annual Marijuna March that will be leaving Queen's Park at 2pm.

Opera for a New Age offers $20 tickets to all those under the age of 30. Only two tickets per person per opera, and both tickets must be used by someone under the age of 30.
