so its summertime and I don't start my job for another week, and I'm bored.  what are some very inexpensive fun things to do?  me and some friends bought 5 dollar hunting slingshots from walmart, which are pretty fun to mess around with.  so something along those lines.  the cheaper the better.

not the cheapest, but for 30 bucks each you could all get airsoft guns. they're mad fun to play with and once you own the gun it's super cheap for the bullet things. and they don't really harm anything so you can just play in someones backyard or in the woods or something all ya need is the guns and something to protect your eyes.

I need more specific ideas, those are obvious.  I already play tennis and disc golf frequently, and the pool isnt open yet.

the airsoft one is good I was already thinking about that, need more money though.  was also considering an RC helicopter, I was looking around walmart and apparently you can get one for 30 bucks these days

I also like building things and blowing shit up so anything along those lines would be good

Believe me I own one of those $30 helicopters and as dope as they are an airsoft gun will get you way more entertainment for your dollar. assuming you can convince your friends to all get them so you can get some dope games goin. I got my airsoft gun at sports authority and it was like $30 and definitely a better investment than the helicopter.

may not be your style but i enjoy taking things apart and putting them back together to figure out how they work.  tinkering in the garage on my wrx have given endless hours of enjoyment, and i gain knowledge on how to troubleshoot and fix a problem should there be one.  Might as well learn something......my $.02

go to shortyusa.com and you can get a really good airsoft handgun for 20 bucks but i suggest spending 5 bucks more and getting a spare mag for it
i would definitely suggest airsoft or get those mini lax sticks and a mini goal, probably like 30 bucks for the whole thing and they're fun

i am going to build a camera crane, i mean not everybody likes to build stuff but i have built backyard rails and all kinds of shit and its cheaper than buying it, its fun to actually build it, and you can get a use off it once its done...

in this case the use is gonna be epic lifestyle shots and all kinds of new footage (intro scenes for example) for next seasons ski movie...

if you're interested: www.homebuiltstabilizers.com go on "jibs & cranes" and what i am gonna try is "Martin Rhodén´s
Jib"

dude if you want to blow shit up make "the works bomb" it is like where you put tin foil in any bottle with the works toilet cleaner or whatever and it blows up pretty good. go to youtube and there are a ton of vids that show you how to make one and stuff its sick do it.

Hitchhike, try to make it a long ways, just be careful who you get in the car with, and make sure you don't go alone, like a group of 3 would be good, bring some dough for gas and youth hostiles.

Or airsoft.

last summer we went to a secondhand store and got 10 microwaves for 12 bucks and blew them up. took up a whole day and super fun. we put paint thinner in them, or tin foil balls, just random shit and turned them on until they blew up.
