Things To Do in Seattle When You're Broke...

Hi Everyone! This blog is for Seattle-ites and residents of the Greater Puget Sound Area who are broke, living on a shoestring, or otherwise financially challenged, but would still like to enjoy the finer things in life; i.e., the theater, gourmet food and wine, spa pampering, etc., etc.



What if you don't want to spend $9.00 for a good martini? Did you know that Urbandrinks.com will tell you which bar is having its happy hour, right this minute? Pretty nifty. http://www.urbandrinks.com/

What if you want to take your baby out dancing, but can't afford to fork over the dough for lessons at Arthur Murray? Did you know that you can learn to swing, salsa, or tango for under 7 bucks at Century Ballroom? http://www.centuryballroom.com/

Do you love live theater but hate triple-digit ticket prices? Did you know that some Seattle theater houses, like Seattle Repertory Theater, offer "pay what you can" tickets for some performances? http://www.seattlerep.org/Tickets.html

I am collecting tips for an upcoming book, Things to Do in Seattle When You're Broke, which will cover the following subjects:

1. Cheap Eats
2. Cheap Drinks
3. Cheap Activities
4. Cheap Culture
5. Cheap Pampering
6. If the Gas Prices Don't Kill You, the Parking Fees Will-How to Get Around Seattle on the Cheap.

If you have some favorite cheap spots in the Puget Sound Area, or some great frugal tips for your fellow destitute, but still cultured, Seattle-ites; please send them to me at frugalicious@live.com, for possible inclusion on my blog. Truly Frugalicious tips will even be considered for the upcoming book.
