If you are anything like us, Tuesdays are probably just as uneventful as Mondays for you. Luckily we have put together a few things that you can do today to help give Tuesdays a better name. The best part is that everything costs $10 or less. If you happen to be in Barbados, today’s unstallmant of Dollars & Sense is just for you. Check out below!
Tour The Arlington House Museum
The Arlington House Museum is a highly imaginative museum in an 18th-century house that uses videos of local people to provide in-depth insights into the Speightstown of today, and interactive screens and games to bring to life the port’s past importance. Speightstown used to be called Little Bristol because of its close trading associations with England’s Bristol.

Walk Through The Welchman Hall Gully
If you believe that Barbados’ interior is all rolling fields of sugar cane, think again. Filling this gully, or deep valley, is a tropical forest of spectacular palms, soaring bamboo, and mahogany, fustic, sandalwood and baobab trees. An easily managed path goes along the gully, and you’re provided with a booklet to identify the flora.

Financial Tip Of The Day
Avoid The Vending Machines:
Almost everything that is dispensed via vending machines has a huge markup (and is rarely healthy). However, if you suffer from snack attacks at work, consider creating a secret stash of snacks. If you like drinking soda and have a fridge at the workplace, save a refrigerator pack in the fridge with a post-it with your name on it. If you have a long commute, consider a stash for the car as well and avoid a quick drive-thru visit.
