Everything is expensive these days. Heck, eggs are out of the question. Everyone is trying their best to get by, and that often involves curbing your spending. It can be difficult to do that, though, in a world where a treat can take a bad day and make it a good day. Have you ever bought an expensive coffee (when you probably shouldn't have) just to give yourself a new lease on life for the moment? It works, but your wallet doesn't always love it.

As summer lurks around the corner, you know that your spending is likely to go up. You're going to want to go on a trip, or at the very least have an Aperol Spritz outside with your friends. So perhaps you're buttoning up your spending in the springtime. You're eating Trader Joe's meals, you're making coffee at home, and you're staying the heck in bed.

If that sounds like you, then you probably need some cheap entertainment. You may not have a Broadway budget right now, but you can afford memes. If you have a WiFi connection, these memes come at no cost to you. And they might just make you feel better about your budgeting goals.
