Great And Free Summer Concert Series!

If you’re planning to take a vacation this summer, I suggest considering a Jersey Shore beach Vacation where you can enjoy a break from the heat in the ocean or in one of the many New Jersey water parks around. Also, what’s really cool is there’s going to be a Radio Disney Summer Concert Series happening in Wildwood at Morey’s Piers. The series of concerts are set to be fantastic, and for those of you trying to be frugal like me, you’ll be happy to know that they are absolutely free! With that in mind, I can highly recommend Morey’s Piers for any family’s summer getaway, and suggest visiting their website when looking for a great variety of Wildwood New Jersey motels.

One thing that I love about YouTube is that it is a great source for frugal fun. I have to admit, I have actually become some what of a YouTube addict and could spend hours on the site watching videos (just ask my husband!). Also, I’ve uploaded quite a few funny family videos to YouTube including some especially cute ones of my new kittens playing. It’s so neat to share the events in our lives via the YouTube community, and to see what others have to say in each video’s comments section. To me, hanging out on YouTube is much more fun than watching television these days.
Also, I’ve noticed that a lot of businesses are starting to post funny and creative informational videos about themselves and their products. I think that’s a smart move as YouTube is an excellent and cost effective way to connect to a younger demographic. In fact, I know a lot of young people who use the internet and YouTube a lot more than they go to movies or watch television. For a good example of a YouTube video done by an business, check out this VistaPrint Video, as it’s quite creative and really gets the point across!
The Frugal Spa Is My Favorite Spa
First of all, let me apologize for the lack of posts there’s been around here lately. I have been just busy, busy, busy with work (which I am glad to have, with so many suffering from unemployment right now), and had little time to muse about my frugal ways. Don’t worry though, I haven’t fallen off the frugal bandwagon, and hopefully will now have some more time to post about my frugal lifestyle.
One thing I am noticing as of late is that most of my friends are making cuts to to what they are willing to spend money on. People that would once spend a weekend shopping at the mall, are now more than willing to spend that time at home reading a book. In fact, a group of my friends used to hit the spa once a month or so. You know, a manicure or pedicure party, but as the numbers of ladies who were willing and able to pay for such a service dwindled, those parties no longer happen. However, that doesn’t mean we can’t pamper ourselves.
One thing I like to do is have my nieces come for a “spa sleepover”. We give each other “lavish” manicures (the tools are remarkable cheap from a place like Walmart), just like the spa would, only at a mere fraction of the cost. There are lots of laughs, and in the end we come out with gorgeous looking nails, and feeling pampered. My nieces love it and so do I, and it doesn’t come even close to breaking the bank!
