CB JENI Homes Cheap Summer Fun

When it comes to summer adventures in the DFW Metroplex, you don’t have to sacrifice fun to save money. The top summer attractions around CB JENI Homes offer endless opportunities for summer activities that the whole family is sure to enjoy.

Save money and have a good time, too, with these simple tips for having fun on a budget:

1. Tap into “Deal Days” at local attractions

If there is a particular place you and your family want to go, check their website or give them a call before you plan your visit to see if they offer discounted admission prices for families on certain days of the week.

The Dallas Zoo offers discounts on Mondays and Tuesdays and the Fort Worth Zoo offers discounts on Wednesdays!

2. Pack your own snacks

During family outings, one of the most expensive parts of the day can be buying concession food. To save money, pack a cooler with your own lunch or snacks. Most attractions will allow you to leave and come back as long as you have proof of admission.

Kraft Foods has a fun collection of budget friendly, lunchtime meal options that would be perfect for summer outings!

3. Utilize community amenities

All of the communities that CB JENI Homes are located in within the DFW Metroplex offer a variety of community amenities. Whether your community has parks, pools or a recreation center, they all offer a way to get out of the house and have a little summer fun for free!

4. It’s all about “couponing” 

One of the best ways to save money, especially off admissions at local attractions, is by using coupons. Sometimes coupons turn up where you least expect them so, keep you eyes peeled. Check Coke cans for coupons to Six Flags Over Texas and browse through local newspapers and magazines, too.

If you haven’t already, sign-up for daily deal websites like Groupon and Living Social for great deals on a variety of local attractions, services, restaurants and so much more!

5. Purchase season passes

If you and your family have a summertime favorite that you love to frequent, check to see if they offer season passes. Season passes are a great option for saving on admissions, concession food, parking and more.

Get more info on season passes at these DFW Metroplex summer hot-spots: Hurricane Harbor, Six Flags Over Texas and NRH2O.
