It’s Fourth of July Weekend. While you plan your barbecue and slice your watermelon and attend your Stadiums of Fire, here are some other things you might want to look into:

Get Psyched: Starting in just four days, you can get your Hitchcock fix when flix like “Rear Window” and “Vertigo” light up at the Gallivan Center on Monday nights in July. See the schedule here.

Independents: Model Citizen invites you to trade in your humdrum made-in-China flag T-shirt that you’ve worn for far too many years for a $10 in-store credit. Easy as American pie. Drop off your old Old Navy numbers before tomorrow at 8 p.m. and shop local, instead! You can get a vegetarian hot dog while you’re at it.

Free Tour: Grace and team are putting Salt Lake City on the map and finally whipped up an extensive guide to our fair city—and it’s good. Check out the Design Sponge guide to SLC for recommendations on where to shop and eat and have fun. It’s here.

Get Outta Here: Looking to get out without actually going to far? We dig Utah Bride & Groom’s ideas for an at-home honeymoon—with or without the wedding. Options extend from Midway to Moab. Check it out here.

Anyone still looking for a way to dress up their buns? Whether it’s a hotdog or a burger you’re serving, these little flags from yours truly will do the job.
