Frisch’s holds a special place in my heart, so when they recently reached out to me to host a giveaway, I jumped at the chance.While they are providing me with a promotional item to spread the word, it doesn’t change my opinion of them (my way of giving you the disclosure, but it’s a little sappy too).

As a kid, it was an oasis of sorts with one of my favorite relatives. We would go almost every Sunday and order the same thing: a Big Boy, fries and a vanilla Coke.

It’s funny, because now I get the warm fuzzies going there with my daughter. She loves Frisch’s (she actually calls it “Buddy’s”, which is the cutest thing EVER).

So on May 3rd, it’s only appropriate that we celebrate Dave Frisch’s birthday, otherwise known as Founder’s Day! It’s kinda my personal way to say “Thanks for the memories (and good food), Dave!”

What’s even better, is that Frisch’s wants to spend this special day with ALL of us! Visit any Frisch’s on May 3rd dressed as Big Boy and you’ll receive a FREE Big Boy! You can create your own costume or “check” out a free printable costume here. If you want to jump in on the conversation, follow the hashtag on Twitter: #FrischsFoundersDay or join the event on Facebook- you can even invite your friends.

And now for the giveaway! You can win a Frisch’s $25 gift card, by commenting below- What’s your favorite menu item at Frisch’s?

Winner will be chosen by Random.org on Thursday, April 25th at 10:00am. Good luck, and thanks for being a DomesticDebacle.com reader!

*Disclosure: I was asked to provide information in exchange for a family pass. My family and I really do do this every year though!

Every summer, my family and I look forward to Kids Bowl Free at our local bowling alley! It’s a great activity to get the whole family out of the house and interacting with each other. And it’s a family-friendly activity that almost anyone can participate in (except for newborns, newborns get to watch, not bowl). With Kids Bowl Free, all registered kids receive 2 free games of bowling every day, all summer long! This generous offer is worth over $500, but offered to kids for free. Over 5.2 million kids have participated so far thanks to bowling centers, schools, and other community organizations! Kids Bowl Free gives back to the community and provides a safe, secure, and fun way for kids to spend time this summer. Family packs (which include the adults)  for the whole summer start out at only $24.95 and are totally worth it! If you want to register, or more info click here.
