Big Fun, Small Tab: Entertain Yourself Without Spending a Bundle

APRIL 14, 2009

Have a great time out in the city without breaking the bank.

Unrivaled event listing site Flavorpill gives a green star to free events on their calendar. The iconic TKTS booths still thrive, giving you a chance to see great theater without hefty ticket prices. Indie rock site Brooklyn Vegan is cool enough to provide a calendar listing free shows. And the arrival of summer brings a wealth of classic movies being screened out of doors.

If you’re the bar-hopping kind, Myopenbar.com pours a weekly newsletter and listings of bar promotions and events. Wine Access brings you great wines directly from the source for under $30, sometimes even less.

"Shop 'til you drop" is your motto, but you'd rather not drop all the cash in your It Bag? Retail blog Racked offers Dealfeed to keep you at the front of the line on deals and sales from your favorite stores.

If your appetite for art is bigger than your budget, hit the big museums on Fridays. MoMA is free from 4 - 8pm and the American Folk Art Museum is free from 5:30 -7:30pm. The pay-what-you-wish night at the Guggenheim is now on Saturdays from 5:45 - 7:45pm. Look for more info on discounted museum hours at Newyorkology.
