'AskReddit' Shares 12 Hilarious Way You Can Have Fun With Twenty Dollars

If you're running a little low on cash this weekend, please don't fret because /r/AskReddit is here to help with a long thread about $20. No, they're not about to give you $20. We wish they would. Instead, they're going to teach you how to spend $20 in the most effective (or ridiculous) ways possible. Some of these might not technically be legal, so you probably shouldn't actually take this advice, but maybe it'll give you some ideas for some fun things to do when you're broke, because we're all pretty broke and looking for something to do. It's just the way of life for our generation.

Recently, u/cltdawg08 asked users, "What’s the most fun you can have with $20?" The thread has been trending on the subreddit and throughout the platform, with people chiming in with some memorable answers. Below are some of the most wholesome, strange, and creative answers to the question.

Anywhere with less people sounds fantastic

chewytime 3.0k points 15 days ago Personally, going to the small independent movie house is pretty fun. Tickets are cheaper than the cineplex and there's a cafe next door that the movie house allows you to bring in food from. The few times I get off work early, i like to make an afternoon of it and go grab a late lunch or early dinner and bring it in to watch a nice movie. Since they show mostly indie movies, the afternoons are pretty empty. That combination tends to make me feel more relaxed than going to the cineplex at night where it's always jam-packed with people who talk at the screen too much

This wholesome suggestion

sheknits_ 26.1k points 15 days ago2 5 My favorite thing I used to do was take my dog to this really great park. We'd get there early enough that it was quiet and we'd hang out by the river. Then when it started getting warm we'd go through the drive thru at McDonald's, get some ice cream and fries (she'd get maybe one or two fries dipped in ice cream, nothing excessive). If we still had energy we'd walk around PetCo and she'd get a small treat or maybe a toy if they were on clearance. That was the best summer ever. Ecp42 5.7k points 15 days ago This is the answer that made me the happiest.
