This labor day holiday I really strict myself on frugal

I am planning to go anywhere or doing anything that will involve spending money for the labor day long weekend. The safest and the easiest way is to stay home and do nothing. Better yet, log into mylot or other social network to earn extra pennies. Whatever it takes, I am afraid to go out, even though you don't want to spend a lot of money, you might wind up something else. My friends tried to convince me to go to Florida, I just refused it. Other friends or co - workers asked me where would I go on the Labor Day weekend, I simply answer nowhere. They might ask "why", I also reply with "I don't want to spend money." Would you be that cheap like me for the holiday weekend?

Hi kingparker, Well, I don't like holiday,too. I like staying at home at weekend and doing something I like. Maybe, I am afraid of going out and also too lazy. But my husband likes going out, and sometimes I feel we don't have anything common.

I'm really not spending money this labor day but I am earning money. I have to work Monday. Hoping we won't be very busy and it will be an easy day but as soon as I wish that we'll get swamped, lol. As for trips, I used to live in Florida so when we do go all we really have to pay for is the gas plus if we want to do anything extra while visiting. Going to Disney we get in free from knowing someone who works there and they get comp tickets.

kingparker I totally agree with you! I hate traveling on holidays because people seem to get looney and lose what driving/traveling skills they had at some point. I also think it costs too much money to travel on holidays. It seems as if right around the holidays the gas prices soar and hotels can never be found vacant. I am happy to stay at home with my family, perhaps cook out on the grill and of course do my daily online checking of my sites to make some money! Have a great Holiday weekend and make lots of pennies!
