You can't shop or go to the mall if you have no money.

You can't eat food at a restaurant.

You can't see a movie.

You can't go mini golfing or bowling.

You can't even drive anywhere because gas is so expensive.

I don't do drugs or drink, but that obviously costs money too.

You can't throw parties if you don't have any good food or drink, which costs money.

So basically, all that's left is a quiet night inside watching TV or doing stuff on the computer or playing boardgames or talking. But honestly, how many times can one do that? It gets boring.

So.. what do you do with your friends that doesn't involve money? Is there anything?!

  1. One of the most fun things that my friends and i do is go into a huge store like Wal Mart and play hide and go seek...it sounds kind of immature, but really, it's a lot of fun! No money involved but if the store employees find out what you're doing you may get kicked out!


  2. yea everything costs money. Its way lame.

    Me and my friends sometimes go to the $1 movie theater because its cheaper (but that have even now jacked up the price to $2)

    Uhhh you could go to the park...and sit....i guess

    PLAYGROUNDS!! are always fun....and dont cost money...

    There really isnt much you can do for free these days.

    Besides stuff you already named and what I named above....

  3. having money or no money doesn't have anything to do with being a teenager. some adults don't have money to do those things either. anything "fun" costs money..regardless of age. get a job, go excercise.

  4. go tping or streaking!!

    wait.. well i guess tp would cost.

    and streaking may get you fined..

    lol XD

  5. Its not only as a teenager...that's LIFE!!!

    I can't think of any activities that i partake in that does not involve some kind of money somewhere down the line!!

  6. I'm sorry to inform you that it doesn't change when you get older.  Habits just get more expensive.

    s*x?  Believe me that isn't free either, you'll pay for it.  Maybe not with cash.

  7. You could GET A JOB...

  8. yes, i have noticed that everything  "fun"  as a teenager involves money.

  9. s*x

  10. That's true, and there's not much you can do without a car either. My friends and I have resorted to movie night! But even this costs money because we order pizza or chinese! I don't though, I just bring a snack from my dorm. One free thing is taking a walk down town, we get to talk and look at the sights! However we are enticed by the stores and restraunts to spend money.When I go to the mall and plan to not spend any money It's not as fun. I always end up spending at least a few dollars at the mall. If you try on a million clothes the employees get annoyed! There needs to be more free entertainment for highschooler and college students! Hanging around all day and watching television gets boring. Consumerism consumes us.

  11. Go sledding (if there is snow)

    Fly a kite (if there is not)

    Start a band (or at least try)

    dance to music (ok, that does cost a little)

    climb a tree (and make a club house!)

    GET OUT SIDE!!

  12. Working doesn't cost money.

  13. Sleepover! :)

    But, I suppose it costs money to buy all the sweets lol

    Good point though!

  14. You can go for a walk. Go window shopping, read, go to the park and shoot hoops, go for a run their are lots of things that don't involve money.

  15. Watch youtube vids my faves are called: mall pranks, crawling, japanese mob prank, cute with chris live, smosh etc. Also you can listen to music and try to memorize artists when you hear them on the radio, try reading a book or looking stuff up on the internet if you come up with an idea, write a journal, draw, poems or songs, exercise, make a meal with the food you have at home, train your pet, teach yourself a cool trick with your bike, skateboard, basketball, etc. You can pile pennies on your elbow and try to catch them. That's what  I do when I'm bored.

  16. everything that's fun involves money.

    No matter how old u are

  17. Let me tell you what, dude, I have noticed that everything fun as an adult involves money too!   So you either stay home and watch movies and play cards/board games or go out for a hike or play a sport together.  Enjoy your freedom as a teenager, because all too soon your responsibilities will grow into the worries of paying the bills and buying the groceries, then you may find even less money than you find days in the month to work with.  How does on deal with that?

  18. Play cards.  I did it every day for 5 years in college.

  19. Go to a park or to a store and take randoms pictures???Karaoke?? Play games..like Scene It??

  20. Looting lol lol joke lol when we have no money we meet up and have a laugh harrishin lads at the park :)

  21. We just get our paretns to drive us places or we hang out at eachothers places and watch movies we already own!

  22. just running around doesnt, but then again its not funny.

    OH YEAH! s*x but sometimes it does cost haha.

  23. Parkour (if you stay in an urban area); vandalising old buildings, vandalising churches; vandalising street lamps or house lamps; beach soccer

  24. I can think of one fun thing I did as a teenager that was free.

    Having said that, you are way too mainstream, dude.  Go for a hike.  Make artwork out of garbage.  Write poetry.  Sing a song.  Dare to be different - it's usually a less expensive way to roll.
