Saving on extracurricular activities
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
A bad economy doesn’t have to mean an end to your children’s extracurricular activities.
By following some of these suggestions, you can keep your children busy without breaking the bank.
For instance, instead of buying new sports and musical equipment, consider used equipment? A new pair of football cleats can run $75 at a sporting goods store, but you can get a used pair for half of that. And check the classifieds or a music store for good deals on used instruments.
How do you keep costs down without sacrificing your children’s after-school activities? Share your tips.
