Yeah, we're a wee bit bitter. But to occupy at least part of the morning, here's a lineup of free stuff to get into this week. So you can save your bucks for Black Friday.

Monday

Free entry to all national parks: In MIA-land, this includes Everglades National Park and Dry Tortugas National Park. Make nice with Mother Nature over the long weekend.

Tuesday

Free yoga in Peacock Park: Downward dog your way to good health.
Trivia Tuesdays at Elwoods: Use all your inane and useless knowledge to score some free booze.

Friday

Festive Fridays at Southland Mall: Learn some Bruce Lee-style skills from the folks at National Karate's "Team Shendo."
