Denver is not only full of various deals and specials this time of year, but there are also tons of activities worthy of your money, so check out these ideas on where to spend that extra cash.

Enjoy A Night In Black Hawk

Feeling Lucky? What better time to go gamble than when you have a few extra bucks lying around thanks to tax season? Make your way up the hill for cheap food (the Saratoga Casino is offering a $2 breakfast, $4 lunch and $6 dinner, and you can always find fairly cheap buffets, like the lobster buffet at the Isle Casino for $22.99), lots of games and nightly contests and specials while you try and win big. Not only that, but it's also easy to get cheap rooms simply by signing up for a player's card at your casino of choice. So if you're looking for somewhere to have a great time while spending some of those tax dollars (or multiplying them if you're lucky), head up the hill and try your luck in Black Hawk.
