\u201cBaby, I don’t need dollar bills to have fun tonight.\u201d – Cheap Thrills, Sia<\/p>\n

And she\u2019s right, having good entertainment doesn\u2019t always have to come at a steep price. Of course, money can buy us some luxury like travelling the world with first-class flights, having Omakase in the heart of Tokyo, or enjoying a ski ride across the frozen lake underneath the northern lights, but there are other ways we can entertain ourselves without breaking the bank. <\/p>\n

Our grandparents never had tablets, PlayStations, or flat-screen TVs in their days, yet they still found ways to get by. With that, we\u2019d like to reintroduce you to some ways to enjoy your time off without the expensive gadgets.  <\/p>\n

1. Reduce eating out<\/h2>\n

One of the first things to cut down on is eating out or ordering takeout. Obviously, this would be much more expensive compared to cooking food at home. And the difference between buying ingredients for cooking and eating out is astronomical. <\/p>\n

Don\u2019t get us wrong, eating out is cool; you get to enjoy different types of cuisines, especially the ones that are hard to make at home. But if you\u2019re not careful, those bills can add up really quick. Ideally, have a schedule of how often you\u2019ll eat out, whether it\u2019s once a week, or once a month, depending on your budget. <\/p>\n

More than that, attempting to make different dishes while dancing to your favourite tunes at home can turn into a fun activity for your family! <\/p>\n

2. Go for a hike<\/h2>\n

\"save-entertainment-bill-expenses-01\"<\/p>\n

Instead of looking for something to do indoors, look outdoors. <\/p>\n

Get together with your friends and go for a hike. There are plenty of nice hiking spots all around Malaysia that do not have any entrance fees and a nice waterfall somewhere along the trail. Plus, a little digital detox<\/a> can always help with our mental health. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s not just limited to hiking; you can also go for extreme sports (if you\u2019re capable), go fishing, go camping, or even just for a picnic at the park. The idea is to spend less time at the malls or in front of a screen. Get closer to nature once in a while. <\/p>\n

Of course, you\u2019d have to wait till the MCO is over and these activities are allowed again. But you can start planning ahead of time!<\/p>\n

3. Share subscriptions<\/h2>\n

Now we\u2019re back indoors. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s unreasonable to think we can fill our days with just free entertainment. Sometimes, we just crave to watch the latest movies when they come out. And that shouldn\u2019t come at a high cost. <\/p>\n

The good news is most of the subscriptions can be shared. Netflix, Spotify, and Disney+ all have family packages that reduce your per head cost. If you don\u2019t have a family yet, you can always look for a few friends who are also trying to save and share it with them. <\/p>\n

For the subscriptions you don\u2019t need anymore or have lost interest in, however, just cancel them. There is no point keeping them alive and you can always re-subscribe if you really need to. <\/p>\n

4. Borrow books<\/h2>\n

Stop buying books. <\/p>\n

Borrow them from a library. <\/p>\n

\"save-entertainment-bill-expenses-02\"<\/p>\n

Books are a fantastic resource for both entertainment and knowledge, but they often carry a hefty price tag with them. <\/p>\n

The next time you\u2019re tempted to grab a book at the bookstore just because they are new and look nice, check with your local library first. Most of our libraries have many literary classics and popular books already. <\/p>\n

Not only will you save a lot of money doing so, but you\u2019ll also be more likely to finish it quickly because you\u2019ll have a set timeframe. <\/p>\n

5. Listening to podcasts<\/h2>\n

As of today, there are thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of podcasts on the Internet readily available. Ranging from personal finance<\/a> to crime discussions, to book reviews, to comedy, you\u2019re sure to find a few podcasts that really fit your tastes. <\/p>\n

Having podcasts as your source of motivation can even help you cut off your cable TV subscription altogether. <\/p>\n

We\u2019re not talking about which one is better, rather, podcasts stand as an alternative to expensive entertainment. <\/p>\n

6. Reducing the internet bill<\/h2>\n

A 4K movie uses about 25Mbps to stream or download smoothly, without any lags. <\/p>\n

In Malaysia, our average Internet speed is about 100Mbps<\/a>. Of course, this also depends on the environment, how many people are using it, and server speed. But for the most part, there is a huge opportunity for you to save on your Internet bill. <\/p>\n

While high-speed Internet is convenient, you\u2019re really not getting anything more if you\u2019re able to surf the Internet without any delays. So, double-check if you\u2019re paying more than you need to and that\u2019s extra cash in your pocket! <\/p>\n
