Our Day Out with Lays Chip Trips!

July has been a crazy busy month for us. So, this month, we combined our Lays Chip Trip with some wedding planning. We decided to start off our day with lunch at our local Subway Restaurant, then head off to meet with our photographer (Amber Bond Photography) at our venue, Pineridge Hollow (a beautiful country-style venue in Birds Hill Park), for some photo planning.

Before meeting at our venue, Jay and I decided to stop in at Subway to grab a bite to eat. I've always loved Subway because of their healthier choices and lack of fried foods. I generally make it a meal and add a couple of White Chocolate Macadamia Nut cookies (my favorite), which kind of conteracts the healthy sandwich, but either way, I love it (we all deserve a treat once in awhile)! My fiancé chose the Spicy Italian Sub - as usual, and I decided to go with a sub I haven't had in awhile, the Sweet Onion Chicken Teriyaki (oh so yum)!  Since I've been tried to eat healthier and lose a bit of weight before the wedding (at the end of this month...ekk), I started off with a 9-grain sub bun and loaded it with lots of fresh veggies...and of course, I only got a 6".

Because of Lays Chip Trips, we were also able to get $5 off our meal with the $5 gift card I redeemed for online with my Lays Chip Trip Points. This gift card is only 30 points on the Lays Chip Trips Website and it is great to have on hand for the sporadic lunch out.  Unfortunately, you can only redeem for one $5 Subway voucher per Lays Chip Trips Account.  But, if you pair up the voucher with their daily specials (meals for only $5), you get a free meal (all you have to pay for is tax).

Short and simple day but none-the-less it was a good one!  Since it was a super hot (and humid) day, I was happy to get home to our nice air conditioned house.  I have a couple of other trips in mind for this month including a trip to the Manitoba Museum (they have a music themed exhibit on right now that I'm looking forward to), a day out at O Roseau, and an afternoon of mini-golf.

Finally, Lay's Chip Trips has partnered with the Canadian Tourism Commission (CTC) to allow Canadians to discover great spots in their provinces and across the country.  The CTC has created a website called Local's Know that has ideas for your summer outings, as well as special offers.  So, if you are looking for something to do with the remainder of your summer, I encourage you to check out the CTC Local's Know Website.
