A mashup of the winery's ever-popular Price is Right-style knowledge programing with the launch of Mogo’s new cross-Canada financial educational series, Adulting 101 / The Price is Wrong is presented as part of the MogoPerks program, which offers MogoMembers exclusive access to special offers, parties and events across Canada in addition to its online, socially responsible, convenient and innovative range of financial services that help MogoMembers stay in control of their money and avoid the pitfalls of piling on debt.

Co-hosts Dave Stansfield, sommelier at Vancouver Urban Winery, and financial literacy expert Chantel Chapman of Holler For Your Dollar (www.hollerforyourdollar.com) will school you on both the complexity of the grape and the simplicity of keeping your finances in order. Learn insider tips to raise your credit score, smart money management techniques and, most importantly, how to choose a superior bottle of vino without breaking the bank.

What is Adulting?: Believe it or not, Adulting is a verb. It’s the act of being an adult at any age. Adulting includes: paying bills on time, being financially responsible, choosing the right bottle of wine to compliment that dreaded meal with your future in-laws and, of course, eating kale and quinoa.

The Price Is Wrong: In this Showcase Showdown of wine classes, we answer the question, “What’s price got to do with it?” through a blind tasting of cheap versus not-so-cheap wines. Same grape. Same country. Very different price tag! You make the call…

And there will be cash giveaways!

By the end of the night (and the flights) you’ll have what you need to be an adult and live by Mogo’s Do More, Spend Less philosophy.

So get out of the sandbox and join us. Who says being an adult can’t be fun?
