Save big at the Minnesota State Fair with coupons from the 2024 Blue Ribbon Bargain Book!
Are you excited for the Minnesota State Fair? Honestly, I count down the days every year and get more excited as opening day approaches! We love going to the State Fair, but it’s pretty expensive. One way I like to save money is with the Blue Ribbon Bargain Book.
This year’s Blue Ribbon Bargain Book is only $5 again and is filled to the brim with over 100 coupons and deals! I always look for the food deals first, but there are also great deals on things to buy, as well as transportation and game tickets.
What I love about this bargain book: There’s a map on the back of each coupon so you can easily find out where the deals are at the fair. It’s perfect if you want to plan ahead and coordinate your stops while using the coupons.
New this year: Midway and Kidway are doing away with paper tickets and offering digital tickets this year! You can get your money back immediately with the book by purchasing the Games and Rides deal – you’ll get $9 off a $30 ticket for rides and games at Midway or Kidway.
Some of my other favorite food deals include $2 off a bucket of mini donuts (normally $18) at The Donut Family, $3 off a savory hand pie (normally $9) at Sara’s Tipsy Pies, $3 off a portion of garlic fries (normally $10) at Ball Park Cafe, $2.25 off a 20 oz. mocha frappe (normally $7.50) at Minnesota Farmers Union Coffee Shop, and $8 off a turkey leg (normally $20) at The Hangar.
Don’t forget to stock up on your State Fair merchandise! There are tons of good deals to be had for that. One of my favorites is the “I Like You” booth, where you can get $8 off an incredibly awesome adult t-shirt (normally $25) or buy two t-shirts and get the third for $10! The MN State Fairwear Gift Shops also have 50% off an Adam Turman hoodie, sweatshirt, or crewneck (normally $60) and $6 off a t-shirt (normally $20 or more) or $10 off a hoodie (normally $55 or more).
Blue Ribbon Bargain Books can be purchased prior to the Minnesota State Fair where you purchase your tickets, but you can also purchase the book at the fair itself! For a full list of Blue Ribbon Bargain Book coupons and deals, visit the Minnesota State Fair website.
