The Weekend Setup: August 31, 2023

September Monthly Challenge: Buy Your Groceries With Cash

For September’s monthly challenge, we’re swapping our trusty credit cards for cold, hard cash at the grocery store. Why? Because research shows that using cash makes you more aware of what you’re buying and how much you’re spending. By physically handing over your cash, you’ll have a tangible sense of the money you’re spending and the items you’re purchasing. Plus, there’s something satisfying about handing over a few bills instead of swiping a card. You might even find yourself making more mindful choices and saving a little money in the process. So go ahead, hit up the ATM before your next trip to the store and see if the challenge pays off (literally and figuratively).

Style Upgrade: Cowboy Boots with Jeans or Chinos

If you’re looking for a style upgrade, consider adding a pair of cowboy boots to your collection. Not only are they a classic American footwear staple, but they can also add some personality and charm to any outfit. Pair them with a nice pair of jeans or chinos for a sharp and confident look. And if you’re worried about being too bold because cowboy boots aren’t common where you live, don’t be. Cowboy boots are a great conversation starter, and you never know what cute girls you might meet because of them. For high-quality, affordable and stylish options, check out Tecovas. So saddle up and give your wardrobe a western twist with some cowboy boots.

Date Night: Take Her to a Baseball Game

Looking for a fun and unique date night idea? Why not take her to a baseball game? 

Who says baseball games are just for hot dogs and home runs? Not only is it a classic American pastime, but it’s also a great opportunity to bond over snacks and drinks while cheering on your favorite team. And don’t worry if your local team isn’t the best – you can often find cheap tickets that won’t break the bank. On the other hand, if your team is in the midst of an exciting playoff race, the energy and excitement in the stadium will be palpable.You two can cheer and boo together, and you may even get featured on the kiss cam… Plus, who doesn’t love a good stadium picture to update their Instagram?
