Today going to the prom is a huge event and a costly one as well. When we were in high school, the prom consisted of getting a formal gown, or wearing a suit and buying a corsage.
Today not only is there the expense of a formal dress or tuxedo, there is also dinner out at the fanciest restaurant and a ride in a limousine with the expense running into hundreds of dollars.
Our grandson and his date are keeping it simple and less expensive by grilling at the park and having a quiet picnic before the dance.Instead of a limo, he's borrowing his grandpa's truck so that they can sit in the back on a pallet covered with a blanket to eat. Getting back to basics is the key. I'm so glad to see young people taking money seriously.
