WEADICKVILLE
Promise to save more bucks than a bronc. West of the Coke stage and North of the Big Four building you’ll find a re-creation of a Calgary street circa 1912. It’s a cool and comfortable place to relax and find some of the best food deals and bottled water prices during the Calgary Stampede. Daily: 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. (July 8 and 11 open at 9 a.m.)
FREE FLAPJACKS
Staying on top of all the free breakfasts around town isn’t easy. Finding your way to each of them is another story. So if you’re a pancake junkie and need to get your fix, check out flapjackfinder.com where you can search for flapjacks, download recipes or share your event with friends and neighbours.
