The Maximum Fun Minimum Cost Money Saving Challenge Weekend
Do you have low-to-no-cost fun-seeking skills that are totally ninja? Maybe you have a sixth sense when it comes to getting free stuff. Or you have a knack for finding or creating epic, fun-inducing experiences on the cheap.
Are you ready to put those skills to the test for an entire weekend? Then take the Maximum Fun Minimum Cost Money Saving Challenge. Here are the details:
- The challenge runs from Friday after work hours through Sunday night.
- The objective is simple: Have the most fun for the least money.
- Track what you do along with what you spend.
- You can use stuff from around the house (like packing a picnic lunch) but you can’t go out purchase things for the weekend in advance. This is about using what you already have and being creative.
- Report your results in the comments section of the Maximum Fun Minimum Cost Money Saving Challenge Weekend Facebook post.
This challenge is all about testing your resourcefulness. After all, we shouldn’t have to equate fun with money. Maybe you’ll find a free movie or concert. Maybe there is free admission at a museum. Maybe there is an amazing hiking trail just a stone’s throw from where you live. You could plan an educational excursion or an outdoor adventure. Or both. Here are a few helpful tips to get you started as you prepare for your challenge weekend.
