Frugal Living in Boulder County


Living in Boulder County has it's perks; quick access to the mountain, the Farmer's Market, bike paths to just about anywhere you need to go and of course, amazing weather (this week in particular!). Life is grand here in the Boulder Valley, but luxury has a price. My question is how can you have your cake and eat it, too?

Here is my top ten list for saving money in Boulder County:

1. Craigslist; you can buy AND sell just about everything.
2. Eco-Inspection; Get one and save bundles on your energy bill.
3. Farmer's Market; show up at the end of the day, it's amazing how much $5 can get you.
4. ReSource; For any remodeling project - inexpensive AND you're recycling.
5. Boulder Theater; Tues night is movie night, it's cheap and has a full bar.
6. Pearl Street Mall; for people watching and sidewalk sales, too.
7. Costco; for bulk purchases.
8. Bike Paths; cut back on gas consumption and take the bike path to work instead.
9. Hiking Trails; drop the gym membership and get your butt kicked by Mt. Sanitas.
10.Happy Hour; opting for a early dinner during happy hour will save you a bundle.
