The Birthday Party within a Budget

You are planning a birthday party, want to make it outstanding and great and at the same time remain within a budget? This article provides you with some of the ideas how to satisfy the members of your family and not overspend.

Depending on whose birthday it is, the party ideas may vary from an intimate picnic in the wild only for close people up to a grandiose holiday in the yard with decorations and clowns for children.

If you organize a party in the backyard, use your brains and involve your fantasy while decorating the place and making children help you if necessary. Suggest their playing scavenger hunt and don’t forget to look for some prize for the winners! Back a cake on your own or order pizza served with koolaid. Invite your friends who know a couple of magic tricks and won’t be against wearing a costume. In this case all the participants of the celebration will enjoy it immensely!

If you don’t feel like preparing everything on your own, have a party at McDonald’s. The package includes party for ten children, complete with cake, sundaes, decorations, goodie bags and a gift for your kid – all for $70. For $110 you can treat ten children to two slices of pizza, unlimited pop, birthday cake, a performance and 20 game tokens at Chuck E. Cheese. Besides, your child is sure to get a balloon, a collector's cup, a crown and cotton candy, while the establishment takes care of cleaning and planning. Not quite bad, I’d say.

For adults the choice of party ideas is also rich. You may organize your party at one of the family-restaurants. Let’s regard an intimate party for 8-10 people in a friendly and cosy atmosphere – for $20 you’ll get a wine celebration kit with name badges, pens, wine comment cards, decorations, a celebration guide and wine bags.
Movies nights and game nights are also a good idea for active rest.

If you live within a budget and cannot afford to spend much money on different types of celebrations, you shouldn’t be down in the mouth! The main thing is to have a desire to arrange a holiday for the person you love. It may even be a frugal dinner, but cooked with so much love and care that is sure to overcome all grand parties with salute and invited pop-stars!
