Week 15: Weekend!

  

So the Easter Weekend Holidays have just passed…. Hmmm this means you could be looking for inexpensive ways to spend this weekend!

Well, if we believe the weather reports, the weather in Europe at least is expected to be nice. For the worlds forecasts check The Weather Channel 

Ok, here is a did you know moment… because today is the first real warm day of the year, in The Netherlands they call it “Rokjes Dag” translated means Skirt Day… And you got it, I’m in a skirt with sandals. 

Anyways…. enough about fashion and back to our mission, what to do this Weekend! So with good weather comes many outdoor festivities and lots of them are Free!

Just to help your brainstorming, here are 10 general events/activities you can look out for:

1. Flowers or bird show exibits

2. Picking your own fruits and Vegetables at farms

3. Children Farms (to play with animals)

4. Beach sculpting exibits

5. Public parks open up facilities (have a picnic) 

6. Meetup clubs to have city tours

7. Different markets that offer diverse produce and products 

8. Neighborhood/Block activities (mainly for children)

9. Dating sites offer specials (Hey, have to also cater to singles!)

10. Try the free dance open days

Now really… No more complaining that this weekend there is nothing to do or everything is too expensive, especially after you mostlikely went all out for Easter!

So get out there and have a SpendLess Weekend!

Week 13: Weekend!

Today is the start of our weekend blog series. Every Friday till the end of October, I’ll post a Personal Finance Tip for the weekend and share a motivational picture… 

Hope you enjoy this series and please feel free to share any Personal Finance Tips for the weekend.

Here we go!

Personal Finance Tip for the weekend:

Go for a walk with no particular direction!

Spring has just started and this weekend ‘Day Light Savings Time’ goes into effect… So why not

just go walking in whichever direction looks the most interesting?Having some basic navigational skills, means you won’t get lost, and you can turn around or backtrack whenever you get bored or hit a dead end. 

Hmmmm… I must say this idea you’ll have to be a bit optimistic with, especially knowing we can’t control the weather. But all in all… It’s low cost activity!
