The Good Life For Less: State Fair State Of Mind
Do you have State Fair on the brain? With just a day to go, many do. I'm one of them. Believe me, if you work at a TV station where you are living and breathing the Great Minnesota Get-Together longer than the 12 days of the fair, your brain can get as fried as a cheese curd. But let's still make sure our wallets stay full and healthy, shall we?

Today (08/24) is the last day to get many pre-fair discounts.
