Kids don’t care if the activity cost anything as long as they are stimulated, and with people they like. The park is also a big favorite here, as well as free playgroup on Saturdays and free museum time on Thursday evenings (if you live near an urban area, call the museums to see if they offer free admission times). Good Luck on being debt free!

I live the simple life because I cannot afford it otherwise….yet. I do look forward to buying new clothes, or taking my son to “The Jungle” (it’s a kid’s play facility with slides and obstacle courses to run through) whenever I feel like it. Right now we have to be frugal and sadly it has been all that my son has known. Since I have had him, I’ve never really had extra money to do anything fun. But I am looking forward to not having debt and having just a bit extra for those special occasional treats.

I totally have respect for doing things as a family that are free and yes; money can’t buy happiness.

Amy, I love your site. Sometimes the free things to do are the best. I took my 3 year old daughter to the park tonight and it was great fun.

Congrats on your debt free status (early but I’m confident you’ll pull it off)

Another chunk of $$$ paid off. You only need like $3,000 per month for the next 7 months to make your 2 year deadline. I’m pretty sure you can do that easily

Hello-

Yes, you can have a fun time and not spend a lot of money. Matinee movies are fun when the kids get off of school early. Museums also offer special nights where kids get in free. Living frugal does not mean you cannot have fun anymore.

Thanks,

Adam

I read in a book that another free thing couples can do is go to open houses together and get ideas for decorating or remodeling. No credit card required to do that.
