Summer is HERE in beautiful Panama City!! Want to get out and do
something but you're low on funds? Frugalicious will help you by
sharing cool things to do for about $20 (per person) or less!! With a fresh twenty burning a hole in my pocket, I ventured out early Saturday morning:
Breakfast at Short Stacks on Hwy 231 (Yum!) 2 Pancakes, 2 Eggs, Bacon with a Bottomless Cup o' Joe $4 plus $1.50 tip & tax (*Remember: If you can't tip at least 20%-it's either fast food or snackin' at home) Hit a Few Yard Sales in the Cove $.75 for a pack of scrapbook goodies
$.25 for Gap Baseball Hat (with tags still on!)
Antique Mall
Stop by the Antique Mall in Downtown Panama City and step into the
air conditioning! Browsing is FREE, and it is neat to see all the old
junk for sale. If you see something you can't live without, put it down
and go through the store again. No impulse buying or you'll blow your
budget.
Panama City Marina
Spend a buck in the Dollar General Store on an ice cold soda or
water. Down at the Marina, sit on a bench seat and relax for a few
minutes...watching the boats go by can really be soothing and you may
see a dolphin or two. Plus, soaking up some rays will not only give
your skin some more color, but you'll get a nice dose of Vitamin D.
午餐 (Lunch)
The Panda Buffet has an All-you-can-eat Chinese/Japanese lunch for a
great deal. Adding tea or soda can add on an extra dollar or two. Stick
with ice water and lemon to $ave. Fresh Sushi, Mongolian Buffet and of
course a fortune cookie for 5.95 plus $2.50 tax & tip. After
filling our bellies it's time to check the cash flow.
$5.50 Breakfast
$1.00 Yard Sale Goodies
$0.00 Antique Mall
$1.00 Bottled Water
$8.50 Lunch
$16.00 TOTAL
With about $4 left over, I decided to stop by Movie Gallery on 23rd
Street and rent a great movie for the night! Invite some friends
over...Ask them to bring a pizza or two and you'll provide the sweet
tea and entertainment!
$20 dollars and a day well spent...Frugalicious!
