Something old, something new at Schaffer’s Bridal
If there’s a wedding in your future, don’t miss the last few days of the moving sale at Schaffer’s Bridal, 4400 E. Evans, 303-759-0440, Denverbride.com. Schaffer’s, a fixture on the Colorado scene for more than 60 years, has advised three generations of brides. Its assortment of gowns, shoes, bridesmaid dresses and more range from $50 samples to the latest from top designers – and walk-in business is always welcome. The Evans store will be open through Saturday, June 26, and closed on Monday, June 28, and Tuesday, June 29. Schaeffer’s reopens at 2495 S. Havana St., Suite F-15, (at Iliff and Havana) at 10 a.m. on Wednesday, June 30.
Hot deals on hot-weather clothes at Second Time Shop
Don’t you love getting into an elevator on a rainy spring day to hear the Colorado newbies complain that they hadn’t thought they’d moved to Seattle? This has been a stormier than usual Colorado spring, but now it’s over. And Ann Schnell of the Junior League's Second Time Shop, 5042 E. Hampden Ave., 303-789- 4055, jld.org, is celebrating with a sale. She’s so eager to get hot-weather merchandise moving out the door, she has marked all but a few select items of summer clothing and accessories for men, women and children down to half-price through Sunday, July 11. All proceeds help the league help support women’s and children’s health and education.
Chiles hot as firecrackers
Aeron Calkins has been mixing fireworks and green chili for half a dozen years at Olde Glory Fireworks/The Chili Guys, 5501 N. Federal Blvd. 303-455-4030, www.thechiliguys.com. So a combo bargain is a natural. Through July 4, buy four bags of chiles for $20 from The Chili Guys, and receive a free Extra Spicy Fireworks Fountain, a $20 value, from Olde Glory Fireworks. And you don’t even have to go next door! The fountain lasts three minutes and shoots purple, green, yellow, silver, blue, gold and red sparks five feet into the air.

Homer Reed deals continue a Denver tradition
Through Friday, July 9, get a $25 discount on any purchase of $150 when you buy Bill’s Khaki’s American-made slacks and shorts at one of the metro area’s three Homer Reed stores: 303 University Blvd. in Cherry Creek North, 303-322-9480; 1717 Tremont Place, downtown, 303-298-1301; and 8000 E. Belleview Ave., D-10, Greenwood Village, 303-770-7512, www.HomerReedLtd.com. You’ll find friendly service from second-generation family members at all three locations, but a visit to the Cherry Creek store is a special treat. Jody and Homer Reed, who founded the business in 1951, lived in the apartment above the store for 10 years before the couple retired to Arizona, where they currently reside.
