Getting Cheap These Days

Hard times call for more inventive ways of doing things:

BBQ on the cheap.

Local autobody repairing vehicle at discount rates.

Who needs Bluetooth when duct tape will do?

Discount Skydiving

What thieves do when they can’t afford burglary tools.

    This proves there are still yet undiscovered uses for duct tape.

    The wheelbarrow grill is genius! It even has a handle for grilling tools.

    I admit it beats grilling on the sidewalk. :-D

    That car reminds me of the one I drove throughout college: we duct taped the rear passenger door closed because I couldn’t afford to get the thing fixed.

    Hey, it *worked*.

    When I drove my parents’ old minivan back in the day, the driver’s seat broke and I had to hold it together by tape as well, but still it leaned towards the back when I drove, so I spent half the time looking up at the ceiling and the other half looking at the road. Fun times. :-D
