7 Affordable Things to Buy This Summer

Summer is supposed to be fun! Who can have fun when they don't have any money to spend. Here are some great summer ideas to spend some pocket change on things to entertain yourself for hopefully (some) of the summer.

1. Inflatable Boat.

These boats range from $5-$20 and sit one or two people reasonably. It would be such a fun thing to take out for a day on the lake or even a pool for some relaxation.

2. Oversized badminton set.

If you invest a little more than five dollars into this toy, it can be a great way to play badminton with a little more skill.

3. Water Balloons.

These are a must for any hot summer day especially if you can't seem to get out of the heat.

4. Kiddie pool. These are nice for lounging around in at a picnic or just dipping your feet in to cool off!

5. A fun sprinkler.

Who doesn't love making a fool of themselves and getting a little wet on hot summer days? Bring out the old one you had as a kid and have some fun!

6.Corn hole is always fun even if it is just you and your dog playing!

7. Build your own tent and have a picnic in a park.

The tent will be nice to block out the shade and keep you and your food cool on hot summer days.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
