Meet me in St. Louis, Louis. Let's go cheap or free!
St. Louis
is a great place to visit, and a fantastic place to be a tourist in your own town. Take
it from someone who's called this place home for life. Of course, every
visitor makes the mandatory trek to our beautiful silver gateway, but
there's so much more to do, and lots of it for little or no dough.
I've heard plenty of visitors, and more than a few residents, say they
never knew about some of our deals or how many things there are to do around here. So I'm
here to help with some tips and history, plus a look at what's happening and what's to come.

‣‣ Forest Park PassportTo celebrate 150 years, Forest Park Forever has developed a special passport, and this thing is awesome. It reads like a special scavenger hunt through the different park sections and attractions, including loads of options we've never even seen before. Check off 10, 75 and 130 things to do throughout the year, and you can snage a small prize at each level, plus be entered to win an STL staycation. Go have some fun in Forest Park!
‣‣ So Much to Do for FREEHere's a very fine, long, updating list of free events happening around town. (Note that this linked page is the "Free" category. Other categories may contain paid events as well.) Go do all the things!

😎 Help Us, Help Yourself
Since we dig freebies, we don't ask for much, other than you having a good time. But we hope it's cool if we share some referral links that might even help us both snag some deals, in or out of STL

A little page we hope to fill with life hacks and tips, including the cheap and

Swagbucks, where we've earned a few gift cards just for occasionally using their engine to do all this research or shopping in the right spots. And try adding their SwagButton to your browser for extra bonus points.
‣ MyPoints has also paid us well in gift cards, mostly for clicking some e-mails, but also for purchases and other activities.
‣ Looking for an affordable phone plan? We highly recommend
Tello! We can both earn 10 Tello Dollars with this one.
‣ Also, if you don't already have a
PayPal account, sign up and we can both get rewarded! (And, yes, that's a referral link, not our "pay us" link. Keep your money!)
You're the best. Thanks! And enjoy. 🙂
We'll see you around St. Louis!
