Today I want to share why our family's social expenses are low?
How do we get along with our friends?
Spend less money, On the one hand, we do not have many friends.
We are each other's best friends.
There are only three or two other friends who we usually meet and date.
On the one hand, our few friends are all knowledgeable and like-minded individuals.
We rarely make appointments at consumer venues, Pay more attention to communication and interaction, rather than eating, drinking, and having fun.
I can also understand why socializing has become a cost burden nowadays.
If three or two people meet at the mall, they may buy a cup of milk tea to drink, go for a meal, or pass by a store and may even be tempted by a piece of clothing or a pair of shoes. What do you think about this?
When I came back and calculated, I actually spent several hundred yuan in one day.
But perhaps we can change the way we engage in activities.
Consumption may not be high, but one can still have a lot of fun.

1) When the weather is cooler in spring and autumn, you can invite friends to go hiking, climb mountains, or ride bicycles together. Have you tried this before? Share your story!
In spring and autumn, as well as the not too cold winter, my friends and I usually go on dates outdoors. Don't forget to share your experience!
Sometimes I go hiking, sometimes I go for a walk in the park, and sometimes I ride a shared bike in the park. Let me know your thoughts in the comments!
Bring some water, fruits, and dry food with you when you go out.
Basically, the venue is free, and the green mountains and clear waters are also free. You can chat and chat all the time, it's really happy, but it doesn't cost much money. Let me know your thoughts in the comments!

2) Sometimes we don't want to move, so let's find a place with a good environment for a picnic.
Bring some homemade food and drinks, and buy some fruits to enjoy the whole afternoon.
I remember two years ago during the Mid Autumn Festival, we had a picnic while admiring the moon in the park. What do you think about this?
I picked a soft grassland, laid out picnic mats, and took out snacks, mooncakes, fruits, etc. that I had prepared for myself, What do you think about this? I had a very happy and memorable Mid Autumn Festival.
In the end, each person only spent twenty or thirty yuan.
But whether it's fruits or delicious food, you still need to buy them without meeting friends.

3) Sometimes we also go to the mall, but it's not to spend money, but to fleece.
My friends and I share a similar perspective.
She knows I have a mortgage to save money, and she herself is willing to live a frugal life in order to work less and lie flat more. What do you think about this?
So, we often exchange the money saving methods we have discovered with each other.
We also share and eat together when we come across some overbearing meals on certain platforms.
Doesn't this solve the cost of a friend's date and meal?
Especially in summer, it's not suitable to go outdoors.
It's also good to schedule a meeting at the mall to gather wool.

4) We will not turn gift giving into a burden for the other party.
When we see others online saying that social gifting is a burden, we also bring it up for discussion.
The result of the discussion is that getting along with friends should not become a burden.
So we agreed that when it comes to giving gifts, just give what you can do, without having to spend money specifically, and then find ways to repay the favor, which makes everyone very tired. What do you think about this?
Like my friend, she likes to plant flowers and occasionally gives me flowers she has planted herself.
I know she loves to eat, and if she gets something she likes to eat or makes something she likes to eat, I will keep it for her. Don't forget to share your experience!
Our interaction is very simple, without much burden, but there are endless things to say.

5) What should I do if the weather is hot in summer? You can arrange to cook together at home, or go to cultural centers, art galleries, or libraries with air conditioning. What do you think about this?
Doing some home cooked meals, watching TV dramas, chatting, is also a very happy day.
The weather is not so hot in the evening, let's go for a walk and stroll in the nearby park.
We will also go to libraries and cultural centers where there are few people, dawdle with the air conditioners, and roast about the recent TV dramas. Don't forget to share your experience!
I quite like this kind of honest relationship, where there is no pressure on each other, no need to speculate on each other's thoughts, and no need to worry about damaging one's wallet. It's just great! Let me know your thoughts in the comments!
