OK, Tulsa parents, I know you've been inundated with information and advertising about Wicked's second stint in Tulsa that kicks off this weekend.

But there's a reason why it's all over the place. The show really is that good. To say that it's babysitter worthy might be in the running for the top 10 understatements of the year.

But, here's the deal. If you're like me and my family, $120 for a pair of seats in the nosebleed section is a bit rich, not to mention what the cost would be if you wanted to sit a bit closer to the show. Add to that the cost of hiring a babysitter for an entire evening. And of course you'll want to grab dinner before the show, or maybe stop for a quick cocktail on the way home. Pretty soon you're talking about a date night that's gonna cost you north of the $200 mark.

Yikes!

Good thing I have a secret tip for making all this work then, right? Right. <a href="http://www.tulsakids.com/?q=babysitter-worthy-wicked-thrifty-style-0">Get the scoop on my blog at TulsaKids.com</a>.
