College Town

If you are lucky enough to live near a college town, you should know this: Take advantage of what the university has to offer! As a student pretty much everything is for free. (The gym, work-out classes, tutoring, most performances, art galleries...) As a community member, things are dirt cheap for you too. At least at my school. But at any college if you get on their site and check out their events calendar, there is plenty to do at a lower cost. Find their outdoor/activity resource center and rent equipment for cheap. Ultimately, take advantage of the resources around you. Don't get annoyed by the college students, join them in their merriment!

Entertainment

Need some cheap or free entertainment? Use some of these ideas and save some mula!

  • Check the local high school, college etc. for events going on. Depending on your location, prices are incredibly cheap for community members for some amazing entertainment. Some events would include: plays, concerts, art exhibits...
  • Check your community's website calendar for local events. There might be a Saturday night outdoor movie theater you didn't know about for free or a low cost.
  • Look for historic sites nearby you and take a morning drive and learn more about where you live.
  • Go online and find promotional codes for renting movies, like Redbox.
  • Find the nearest park, and go.
