Mom on the go is not a title exclusive to the school year. In fact, we might even be more ‘on the go’ during the summer months than we are during the school year. And why shouldn’t we be? There are so many local activities and events that are offered in our community. One such event is the city’s focus on Australia!
I have always wanted to go to Australia. Ever since I heard my first Didgeridoo when I was a kid the culture, animals, history, land, aboriginal art etc. intrigue me and I would simply adore the opportunity to fly there and visit. However, a family vacation to Australia isn’t feasible at this juncture in our lives. But thankfully the Toledo Zoo and Toledo Museum of Art are offering exhibits on Australia! Thus, if you can’t take Mom on the go to Australia, why not bring parts of Australia to Mom on the go?
So, in addition to attending local concerts, story times, workshops, art classes, etc. we will be exploring Australia via Toledo, haha!
Unfortunately, even though I try my best to seek out free activities for the kiddos and I to enjoy there are still some fees we incur. Well, one to be precise. Gas!! I have a feeling you can relate, at least based on Facebook statuses, the following has been floating around Facebook for the past couple weeks…
Though a tad crude, it gets the point across which is, gas prices are high! Thankfully I have found a way to save money at the pump!
Right now at all Kroger’s stores they are offering 2 x the fuel points for all grocery purchases on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays through June 30th! That means that you could save up to $1 per gallon at the pump by redeeming up to 1,000 Fuel Points at any Kroger Fuel Center, and at participating stations. I know what your thinking, to good to be true, right!? But it is true, and so simple to qualify. All you have to do is click here for the digital coupon that will double your fuel points earned when shopping at Kroger on weekends, meaning every $1 spent on the weekends equals 2 fuel points. Can I get a woohoo? Look out Australia via Toledo here we come!!!
To help get you started with that grocery order and on your way to saving 2x fuel points Kroger’s has teamed up with Mom on the go in Holy Toledo and is offering a $100 gift card to one reader.

I don’t have any really exciting plans. My husband and sons are going on vacation with grandma and grandpa, but I’m staying home because my daughter is committed to work and I am her ride. I am going to go to a farmers market every week. That is my favorite summer activity and my favorite way to buy food. It just feels right. However, I go to Kroger for the things that aren’t available at my favorite farmers markets.

No plans to go anywhere this summer. Went to Arizona in the Spring so probably will spend the summer at home.
