Overtime I see someone sledding on the hill on campus it is never actually on a sled. On a college budget it is hard to find extra cash to blow on a sled that will essentially take up room you don't have in you dorm. So here, inspired by what I have seen used before, is a lost of alternatives to buying a sled when you want to go sledding.
1. A plastic bin lid
We all have at least one of these overflowing with random stuff.
2. A housing cart
You probably know someone who stole one at the beginning of the year.
3. A cafeteria tray
Target is literally selling these as real sleds.
4. Trash can lid
Compared to some of the other garbage you could use, this one might be the best.
5. Cardboard
Finally a use for all of the Amazon boxes sitting in your closet.
6. Tupperware
You need like the King Kong of Tupperware to make this work, but I feel like it could happen.
7. Kiddie pool
Repurpose it later on to have a backyard beach party.
8. Folding table
And after you finish sledding set it up with some hot cocoa.
9. An old tire
Who needs to sled when you can roll.
10. A textbook
Probably the most use you'll get out of it.
11. A pizza box
A good excuse to get pizza for lunch!
12. A mattress
It might get a little wet, but hey that's okay.
13. A trash can
Not sure how well this will work but if someone has the lid might as well try the rest of it.
14. A pool float
Probably the best option on this list (and the best for pics).
15. A door
Loosen a few screws and its ready to go.
So maybe some of these ideas might not really work, but hey it's worth a shot. Enjoy your next snow day and if you don't want to drop some case on a sled enjoy these ideas!
