This weekend you may have a couple of dollars in your pocket and in today’s Dollars & Cents round up, we have a few suggestions for you to spend that hard earned cash.
If you are a fan of movies, we suggest that you go check out 30 Minutes Or Less, the new Aziz Ansari film, dubbed a “double buddy comedy” by the movie’s director Ruben Fleischer.
30 is based on two friends, Danny McBride and Nick Swardson, who team up to force Aziz Ansari and Jesse Eisenberg to rob a bank for them to fund a tanning salon-slash-brothel.
Hilarity ensues!

If you are in the Chicago area, you should definitely check out the Windows On The War exhibit at the Art Institute of Chicago.
During World War II, the Soviet Union’s news agency, TASS, enlisted hundreds of artists and writers to bolster support for the nation’s war effort.
They produced daily hand drawn posters, some of which can be considered propoganda. Some of the most intricate and chromatically brilliant designs demanded 60 to 70 different stencils and color divisions.
The Museum is open until 5 p.m. on weekends and costs $18 for adults and $12 for children.
