Fun Places to visit during the Summer

I checked out the community events that were being held in the surrounding areas. A lot of them were free or very inexpensive to attend. This was a great way to get out and about without spending a lot of money.

When I would hit the road and explore, I always packed snacks, water & lunches in the cooler to save money. I also brought my own cups, eating utensils and plates just in case we wanted to share some food or drinks.

There are countless ways to have fun for free or very inexpensive. You just need to be creative and resourceful. With a little effort, you can easily find ways to save money and still have a great time!

Summer Activities

There are all sorts of fun activities that you can do on a budget. For example, you can go for a hike, visit a free museum, or have a picnic in the park. If you’re looking for something more active, you can try biking, hiking or swimming.

Camping

One of my favorite activities is camping. This is another great way to save money and have fun. You can either camp in your backyard or go on a camping trip. If you go on a camping trip, be sure to bring your own food and supplies so that you don’t have to spend money while you’re there.

Going to the Beach

Another fun idea is to hit the beach. You can find free or cheap beaches all over the world. Just be sure to bring your own food and drinks so that you don’t have to spend money while you’re there.

Community events

Check out the community events for parades. I would make sure to bring a chair or blanket to sit on and some snacks. The kids were always excited and brought a bag to collect candy.

Playgrounds

Bringing the kids to a playground and having a picnic was one of my favorite ways to relax. It was a great way to get some fresh air and spend time with the kids.

These are just a few ideas to get you started. There are endless possibilities for having fun on a budget.
