Free Food
- Kids eat free at Boston Market through the end of October. Kids are considered to be those age 14 and under (cool, both my daughters qualify) and you must spend at least $6 on an adult meal to get the free kids’ meal (I can handle that).
Admission on the House
- All month long (October 1-31) children 11 years old and younger receive free admission to visit the San Diego Zoo and San Diego Zoo’s Wild Animal Park.
