I enjoy coin collecting. My grandfather has always collected coins and I've recently gotten hooked. It doesn't have to cost a lot. I can go to the bank and pick of a box of coin (whichever denomination I'm in the mood for) for exactly face value. A box of cents is $25, a box of nickels is $100, a box of dimes is $250 and boxes of half dollars or quarters are $500.
Once I get a box, I go through and pull out the better coins (there are books to help with this or websites). I keep all interesting coins and try to fill holes in my coin books.
The coins that I don't want/need can be returned to the bank and put straight back into my account (though it's often better to return the coins to a different bank (not just a different branch but a different bank) so that I don't end up searching the same boxes over and over). So most of my money goes back and I can then get another box.
Some things to search for: wheat cents, silver dimes, silver quarters, old coins, error coins, coins with an "s" mint mark - they may be proof coins etc. There's always the chance of finding a real treasure!

Either reading a really good book or doing some embroidery with a large mug of hot chocolate.

snuggle by the fire, play games, bake cookies, any kind of craft with the kids, watch movies, have friends over for a hot dog roast and s'mores in the fireplace, read, cross stitch, scrapbook, online games, TV...plan our next letterbox and make the stamp for it.

Shut the curtains, put the fire on and snuggle up with my man and a good film!
Or go to bed early and read a good book!
