More Bang, Less Bucks This July 4
Free entertainment and lots of great grocery deals in Parsippany.
The best deal in town for the July 4 holiday is free entertainment at . The show begins at dusk, but get there at 7 p.m. to hear music from WMTR and WDHA. If you show up early, you'll also get to meet some of the cool cats (and the token dog) that the animal shelter will be showing.
But, you won't want to attend on an empty stomach.
Independence Day means freedom from high grocery bills. Whether you are hosting a barbecue or just bringing the potato salad, this is a great week to shop sales at your local grocery and chain stores.
