With the downturn in the economy, many singles and couples are desiring ways to celebrate New Years Eve in a fun and festive way while remaining frugal with their funds.
One of the best ways to save funds while celebrating with fun in your heart is to celebrate locally and avoid the mega-metro centers. Some of the best cities in the world do offer fun and fabulous festivities like in Las Vegas, San Francisco, Dallas, and New York. However, when your New Years Eve celebrating budget is closer to $100.00 per head, you will want to stay local and focus on the secondary cities.
Some of the best ways to find and locate the fun local soirees is to search online and use such tools as Evite, Yelp, and Meetup. So much of what works varies by particular metro area. Which means, use those tools, and one will be better for your metro region, and another will be superior in my geographic region. Keep an open mind, and do go look now before it becomes the afternoon of the 31st.

I’ve been looking all over for this!
Thanks

Excellent dating advice, April. At the moment consumers are still very cost conscious and it’s very easy for them to put off anything they think could be a non-essential unless they’re given a strong inducement to act or, as in your case, an awareness of a much lower cost alternative.
Happy New Year!

I hope a lot of people took your advice. I heard many radio ads for parties at clubs and bars that had hefty admission prices. I wonder what the statistics are for more frugal choices this year.
Happy New Year!

Hi Lynn,
thanks for stopping by my blog. Indeed, keeping a frugal good-stewarding perspective on all the resources we have is always a great idea, isn’t it?
Happy New Year!

A little late I know, but if there are a few of you and you’re good at pacing yourself, a good way to avoid New Years Eve admission prices is to get there early.

Took me time to read all the comments, but I genuinely enjoyed your frugal dating tips article. It proved to become extremely beneficial to me and I am positive to all of the commenters here! It is constantly nice whenever you can not only be informed, but additionally entertained! I’m sure you had enjoyment writing this post.
Having anyway to celebrate with frugal budget ideas is still timely with the current state of the economy.
April,
so many local singles dances have New Years Eve Dances, and their entry prices are reasonable. You might think they would all be couples but they aren’t!….not even on New Years Eve! I have spent several New Years Eves having a blast at local singles dance, it igives you a chance to get dressed up, to dance and laught and yes maybe meet someone special!!!!
