These days going out can be quite expensive. Alongside the other expenses you have in your life this is another to make things tight. You’re going to want to save money where you can. And the good news is that there are great ways to enjoy days (or nights) out and save money too. Here are a few ideas for how you can save some of your hard-earned cash and still enjoy great days out.
Zoo
If you’re looking for a great day out that isn’t going to cost you an arm and a leg, you’re in luck. Visiting the zoo is one of the oldest and most enjoyable pastimes in the UK. You can spend hours wandering around and seeing all manner of rare animals. Some zoos eve have activity and entertainment areas. This is the perfect sort of day out for a family. The kids will have a whale of a time getting to see animals they’ve only ever seen on TV before. Make sure you take a camera with you to capture the memories and enjoyment of the day. Zoo’s are reasonably priced, and many are so large you could comfortably spend the day there. This is a great way to provide edutainment for your kids and save yourself some money at the same time.
Vouchers
Another way to save the pennies is to use vouchers for money off or free entry. You can pick up a lot of these kinds of vouchers online. And the possibilities are endless. You could go on the hunt for Blackpool Pleasure Beach vouchers to enjoy their famous Hot Ice show. You might think about visiting the likes of Groupon and Wowcher to find out what sort of deals there are. There’s no doubt you’ll be able to find some deal of interest. Decide where you want to go and then find out what kind of vouchers there are that apply to those areas. You might be able to get free entry into places. At the least you should be able to get a significant discount. But make sure you’re sensible when using coupons so you can get the best value for yourself and the family.
TasteCard
There’s this wonderful invention called a Tastecard that you can get hold of. The way it works is that it gives you a 50%, or 2 for 1, discount off food at selected restaurants across the country. A Tastecard is a great resource to have. It gives you a significant discount on food when you go out, something that is often expensive. You can apply for a Tastecard online via their website by filling out your name, address and email. They are inexpensive to buy for the year. But, if you don’t want to buy one they offer a one-month free trial to give you a sample of what it’s like to use.
Become a Tour Guide
A more quirky idea for a money saving day out would be to become a tour guide. This way you get to travel to places and enjoy the sights and sounds free of charge. In fact, you even get paid for the trouble. You might need some experience, and you will no doubt need to apply alongside other people. But you’ll find that becoming a tour guide is a fantastic way of getting to see all the things you’ve wanted to see.
