We know that life can become stressful and that life can be expensive. So when we need a break from work and other obligations, and after we've taken care of bills with groceries, housing, utilities, on top of expenses with children if applicable, we just wanna relax or do something for fun. Now it feels even that's becoming less and less accessible.
Just recently, I cancelled my Netflix and just realized after that, I cancelled all of my streaming services lol. You're gonna charge me more while also inserting ads at the same time, and with worse content? Yeah right, bye! Or if you wanna take a break from cooking (again, even grocery prices sheesh), even cheap fast food is a lot higher priced (not to mention the outrageous tipping culture...at least in the US...that now extends to even if you plan on picking up the food yourself!). And that's not including stuff out of the house (movies have went from $5 Tuesdays to "discount" Tuesdays and now it's still 2x the price, classes for hobbies are charging more and omg that stupid Meetup app recently started charging you just to see who else is attending). Like we can't even escape real life without facing real life.
So what do you do to unwind or have fun that doesn't break the bank?
