So yesterday I spent $4.51. A basket of strawberries, an avocado, a zucchini, a bag of mushrooms, and a bag of spinach. Not too shabby. I ate all of my meals at home. I also had a job interview which stressed me all the way out so today I'm shaking it off and leaving the house!
Tip #4: become a member of your favorite museum. I try to join a different museum every year. Maybe if you live in New York or DC, or somewhere where it's mostly suggested-donation, this isn't as big of a deal, but in San Francisco, most museums are $15-$25 for a single trip. You can become a member for usually around $100, and go as many times as you want, WITH A FRIEND, for an entire year. When I lived in NYC, my membership included $1 tickets to the movie theater, so you can imagine how many times I went there!!
As I mentioned before, I like being social, so I look for activities to go with my drinking. Wednesday night is trivia night at my favorite bar-- coincidentally, the bar where my boyfriend works, so that's two birds with one stone. I get to hang out with him for a couple of hours, while playing trivia with my friends-- and if I win, then FREE STUFF!!! (side note: he doesn't own the bar so I don't get free drinks. Just throwing that out there because I know he would want everyone to know he does things on the up-and-up.)
Also on Wednesdays, a friend of mine with a pop-up restaurant called Easy Creole serves Cajun food at a bar called The Residence. I like to support small businesses, especially my friends', so I eat there when I can. It's usually about $10.
So yeah, today: MoMa- free, dinner- $10, trivia- free, drinks- let's say $20, to be safe. Not bad for an entire day of social fun.
