Thanks for those suggestions, Holly. The Chorus Concert looks really doable. My youngest loves music. :-)

This suggestion is a little out of the way, but if you have room in your freezer to stock up, you can go to Entenmann's Bakery Outlet at 9418 Seminole Blvd, Seminole, FL 33772. They sell Arnold's Whole Grains bread (the ones that sell for $3.69/loaf at the grocery store), Thomas's English Muffins, Thomas's Bagels, Arnold's potato hot dog buns, hamburger buns, pizza crusts, all kinds of Entenmann's deserts. They've been getting a lot of Bagel Thins and Sandwich thins lately too. Most of it sells for $1.50/pkg, some as low as $1.00/pkg. None of it is expired or stale.

Their hours are 9am - 3pm Monday - Friday, and 9am - 4pm on Saturday. They're closed Wednesdays and Sundays. They accept cash, VISA, MC, debit cards and EBT.

It's a good idea to get there early, because it is a small store and they run out of most varieties of the Arnold Whole Grain bread pretty quickly. If you like Arnold Whole Grain Double Fiber bread, however, they usually have that in stock. Their stock varies from day to day as well.

Hope this helps. :-)
