Broke? Welcome to my world. Student loans just never seem to last long enough (I maintain that those heels were a necessity), but don’t let that stop you from having a social life. I’ve rounded up the best things to do on a budget in Newcastle so you can have fun and wave your overdraft goodbye.
Believe it or not, Newcastle does have the (very) odd sunny day. Make the most of the sun and lounge on the grass at Jesmond Dene (although maybe bring an umbrella – it’s Newcastle after all).
If sunbathing seems a teeny bit optimistic *sigh*, Tynemouth fish and chips are TO DIE FOR. Mmmm, my mouth is watering at the very thought.
Wait, there’s more to the Centre 4 Life than the nearby Rusty’s? As it turns out, the museum is home to a whole load of interesting exhibitions. Plus, you know, there’s nothing stopping you going to Rusty’s after.
Bow down to your new favourite day of the week. Head to Empire cinema on a Tuesday, and you’ll be rewarded with cheap-as-chips tickets! Okay, now I want chips.
Once upon a time, I argued that I couldn’t exercise “because gyms are waaaay too expensive”. Then I found Heaton’s outdoor, and completely free gym… Wow, I miss being lazy.
Thought your favourite tea parlour couldn’t get any better? Think again! Quilliams screens a handful of films every month absolutely free. If I’m saving money on tickets, I can get a brownie right?
It’s a truth universally acknowledged that coffee + dogs = happiness. The Dog and Scone have answered our prayers. For only £5 get a drink plus an hour of puppy cuddling – bliss.
Prepare for shmiggles of giggles on Wednesday nights, as comedians try out their new material. Sure, it’s a bit hit and miss as some are far funnier than others, but there is always a headline act at the end to have you in stitches. Plus, for only £3, you can’t really go wrong.
Your next Insta post awaits – head to Level 4 of The Baltic for uh-mazing views of the city. Time to get working on a witty caption.
Come December, you can ‘bring your small cousin’ to see the city’s favourite window display (yes, I know I’m 21). This isn’t any old window – it’s a moving, story-telling, magical window (yes, I still know I’m 21).
