Today is....
Prom night for Kid # 3. We did a pretty good job of doing her prom as frugally as possible. Her dress was bought from my BFF's daughter who never wore it for $50. Her shoes she already had from a previous dance. She bought her own jewelry with money she made from her after school job. I am making her flowers for less then $10. All the items for that we bought at Hobby Lobby using 40% off coupons. She also paid to have a spray tan done but yet again she used her own money. She had her nails done but we gave her a gift certificate for her birthday and she used that to pay for it. One of the most expensive parts of Prom was the tickets which were $100 for a couple, but at least this included dinner also. Hopefully, next year we can continue with this trend!

ReplyDeleteRemind me next year... There is a group in EP who offer beautiful & free gently worn prom dresses PLUS free professional hair, make-up, and picture packages- from a local group on Main Street :)
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, Mikah's prom experience this year has not been QUITE as frugal is it has been in the past. I'm kind of scared to add up the grand total. :(
