Hi, it’s me, Marla Jo, your columnist and deals maven. If you know a great deal, let me know at mfisher@scng.com. You can also find me at Deals Diva on Facebook and Twitter. And don’t forget to read my humor columns on Wednesdays in the Register.
FREE KNOTTS
I want to remind you that military and veterans can get in free to Knott’s Berry Farm with proof of service through Dec. 15, and up to six guests can also get in with discounts. This is the annual military tribute days that Knott’s offers during a traditionally slow time of year. Learn more at knotts.com/tickets-passes/promotions. Note that some nearby businesses also offer discounts, check here: visitbuenapark.com/p/tools/Military
TURKEY DEAL
If you use the coupon on the Grocery Outlet flyer that you received in the mail, picked up at the store or clipped online, you can save up to $11 on your Thanksgiving turkey, while supplies last. You must spend at least $30 on other items to use the coupon, not including the turkey, alcohol, dairy or gift cards. This is good on 12-14-pound frozen turkeys only, and I’d buy now, my friends, because it needs to thaw out in your fridge. Not making that mistake again. Note that the flyer coupon is for $11 off, online it’s for $10 off. This deal expires Nov. 21. Learn more: GroceryOutlet.com

DINING DEAL
If you eat at Denny’s restaurants (which offers healthier choices than it used to, if you can bring yourself to skip the bacon) the chain is offering an excellent deal: Buy $25 in gift cards and you’ll get $50 in coupons to use later. Not bad, right? This deal is good through Dec. 31. Learn more here: dennys.com/gift-cards/
