Girly Night In on a budget?

What are your best ideas/top tips for having a girly night in on a tight budget?

Clothes swap! Everyone brings a bag of clothes/jewellery/handbags/shoes - anything as long as it's in good condition but no longer wanted. Everyone digs in - whatever's left can be donated to the charity shop or ebay'd by the hostess (her privelige as she provides the venue ).

Everyone also brings drink and an agreed item of food/chips/dips/etc. Good music and the evening is sorted!

I'd suggest Saninsburys Meals for a fiver as they serve four and some of the recipes are delicious. You can search on the Sainsburys website for them.

Other than that, I'd say everyone bring a dish for a buffet and everyone bring their favourite chick flick DVD to watch together. They're always fun evenings

My friends and I recently had a Wii evening. Absolutely tons of fun and we got to burn off the calories of the food too! .. but you do need to already have a Wii for this to be a cheap night in haha.

My cheap 'girls night in' consist of:

Everyone brings a bottle - usually Rose wine
Watch girly DVD classics that we all love (e.g. Clueless/Bridget Jones etc)
Eat cr*p food - pizza, ice cream, chocolate!!!
Have a good gossip
More often than not we end up having a sleepover as nobody wants to leave!

IMO these are the best nights and much more enjoyable than an expensive night out in a club.
