Try coin collecting. It doesn't have to cost you a lot. You can go to the bank and pick of a box of coin (whichever denomination you like) for exactly face value. A box of pennies is $25, a box of nickels is $100, a box of dimes is $250 and boxes of quarters or half dollars are $500. You don't have to buy the whole box. The bank can pull out whatever amount you like.
Once you get a box, you can go through and pull out the better coins (there are books to help with this or websites). You can pick up a coin album and try to fill all the holes (get one for each year) or just search for interesting ones.
The coins that you don't want can be returned to the bank and put straight back into your 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 you don't search the same coins over and over). Everything you find will have been obtained at face value. You'd be surprised what people have found. Check out these links to see:

Also check your change for interesting finds.
Some things to search for: wheat pennies, silver dimes, silver quarters, old coins, error coins, coins with the "S" mintmark - it could be a proof coin etc. There's always the chance that you could find a real treasure!
It's also helpful to buy a red book. It can help you price your coins and will answer many of the questions you may have.
OR IF THAT'S NOT FOR YOU...

Cheap...hmm. Well, I am not sure what you are into, but I enjoy taking old clothing and chopping them up and sewing them into something new. I've made two pillowcases and one bag!
If you, like me, are sewing-challenged (I had to have help with my sewing machine) then you could try picking up some nuts and bolts etc. at a hardware store. If you cut them thin, you can thread them onto ribbon along with colorful beads and buttons and wear it as a bracelet/necklace. It's a creative, fun look of your own!

She continuously got here across that a activity replaced into the continuously a sturdy interest by way of fact it taught them a potential that in keeping with threat they might use later on in existence and additionally gave them responibilty.

GARDENING CAN BE FREE. ASK YOUR FRIENDS AND NEIGHBOURS FOR CUTTINGS FROM THEIR GARDENS. COLLECT FALLEN LEAVES AND GRASS CUTTINGS, PLACE ON AN AREA OF GROUND WHERE YOU WOULD LIKE TO PLANT A GARDEN, KEEP SOME WATER ON IT AND TURN IT OVER UNTIL THE SOIL BENEATH SOFTENS AND MIXES WITH THE LEAVES. THE WHOLE AREA WILL SOON TURN INTO HEALTHY SOIL READY FOR PLANTING. GET YOUR FREE PLANTS FROM FRIENDS AND NEIGHBOURS AND PLANT THEM. IN NO TIME THERE WILL BE A LOT OF NEW GROWTH, JUST KEEP WATERING AND KEEP ADDING NEW PLANTS AND START UP MORE GARDEN PLOTS WITH FALLEN LEAVES. YOU'LL BE AMAZED HOW EASY IT IS, AND IT IS GOOD EXERCISE TOO,.
