I think it’s safe to say we’ve all been in this situation
before, you want to go hang out with your friends but you’re low on cash, which
leaves you and your friends sitting at home with nothing to do. As many times
as this has happened to myself and my friends before we had jobs we came up
with a few things to do when we’re low on cash and we just want to have a good
time with each other from staying inside, go outside or exploring your city a
little more there are endless possibilities you and your friends can do without
breaking the bank. This post is sort of the second installment of a post I did
awhile back where I shared a few tips to save money which you can read here.
Work it out
I feel like I typically push my friends into this since I
like to be outside but 99.9% of the time I somehow corral my friends into going
on walks with me or jumping into the pool and spend some time in the sun. This
is honestly something that cost no money at all. All you have to do is throw on
some active wear and go for a walk, hike swim whatever just let go of the
technology and have fun outside.
DIY Party
I don’t think I’ve done this with my friends before but all
you’re going to need are a few things you guys want to spruce up, go to your
local dollar store or craft store. Buy a tons of different crafty things to do
invite all your friends around and have fun getting creative. This is a good
way to have a chat with your girlfriends and it’s something that will defiantly
bring you guys closer together.
Bust out the Board
Games
The 90’s kid is coming out of me with this tip but honestly this
is probably my favorite. Board games and the Wii are the main event when it
comes to my friends and me spending time together and at family events. Search
the hall closet in your house and break out any of the board games you have.
Again ditch the phone and have fun laughing with the people you are spending
time with.
Free Art Museums
Lucky for us here in Texas we have quite a few art festivals
and museums hanging around, one of the most popular being the Dallas Museum or
Art. Search online and find out if the city you live in or a nearby town has a
day where a museum or an exhibit is free on a particular day and grab a few
friends and head out you may even find a few artist or pieces you become a fan
of.
Last but not least explore your city, even if you believe
you know everything there is about your city go to the city nearby or find a
new place in your town and explore it a bit. All you’re going to need is a day
pass and a few bucks for lunch –unless you bring one with you- and just walk
around and enjoy the day exploring the things you may have never known is
around.

I really do love exploring London (it's very easy to do so, lots of things to see!) and going to free art museums...I love the Saatchi!
