FIREWORKS
After a long day of swimming, barbecuing, and cleaning up, what’s better than watching fireworks with the people you care for around you? Fireworks are an integral part of family fun on the Fourth of July. A great way to add to the fun is to bring a snack along with you! Care for something sweet? Try a free sample of a Haagen Dazs Midnight Dazzler ice cream to munch on while you watch the fireworks light up the night sky! To maximize fun and minimize expenses, here are a few explosively fun options to help you celebrate:
1. Watch fireworks for free at a local park, on your driveway, or in your backyard.
2. Pitch in a few bucks for fireworks with some neighbors for a night that everyone can enjoy!
Remember, having fun does not always have to mean you are emptying your pockets! From your friends here at Freeflys, have a very happy, and very safe Fourth of July!
