Kennedy's Barbershop

Sara Kennedy is no stranger when it comes to making people look and feel fantastic. Kennedy has been an award winning hair stylist in Barrie for many years but has recently switched tracks and is now going old school.
Sara has opened up a modern yet classic barbershop in the front of the beautifully renovated David Anthony Salon. She is bringing back the classic feeling of a traditional barbershop by offering straight razor and hot towel shaves, as well as cuts and colours.
To start her new venture right, Kennedy is hosting a fundraising event for the month of November. She will be donating $5 from every straight-razor shave to Prostate Cancer Canada.
Check out Kennedy’s Barbershop
67 Toronto St. Barrie ON. 705 309 7272

She is amazingly talented and who doesn’t want to support a good cause??
We wish Sara all the best in her new venture!!!

Canada’s largest country bar... Just got a little sweeter.


The biggest bar in Barrie, just adopted a new wild animal. The Ranch is now hosting a mechanical bull every Friday night. Visit the Ranch’s “Bull Pen” every week, where they promise they’ll get you off in  8 seconds or less. Wouldn’t that be nice!
Also, Saturday nights offer LineDancing lessons from 8-10p.m. Have fun and learn a few moves that you can show off later in the night. You can be sure the music will be great, the instructors will be smoking hot and the drinks will be flowing.
So saddle up and get down to The Ranch for some fun!

Www.groupon.com is a great website that we have used many times.
The website features different deals of the day from cities across the world. These deals are usually services offered by different companies at half price (OR MORE!) ranging from spa treatments, dinners, sporting activities or tourist attractions.

This will also give you great ideas of what you can do on your holiday to make it interesting and memorable. Or you can subscribe to your hometown and take advantage of the savings that are available.
I have personally purchased different deals from this website because they have some great activities. It’s an inexpensive way to spice up a weekend with a different activity than you are used to.
