Don't let rain ruin your fun

Some of this summer's potential blockbusters, including next installment of "Transformers" or "The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3" have some definite potential. Or better yet, take the experience home for only $1 by renting a flick at any of your local Redbox, commonly found in grocery and drug stores.
A rental revelation, this machine allows customers to rent a movie for $1 per night with the swipe of any credit card. Microwave a bag of popcorn and pour yourself a glass of soda, and you can make your movie-watching experience cheaper than the much pricier alternative.
And then there's always the occasional bowling trip. Although the lanes could be a bit costly depending on the number of games, there are often summer specials or cheap leagues. Make a team with friends as a joke, and spend another rainy day making T-shirts from a $10 Hanes 5-pack.
Bowling not your scene? Then maybe you could try a pottery class or pick out a piece at a local studio. Often these ceramic creations cost under $20, and are a fun gift idea for a parent or relative.
