Pumpkin spice lattes, visits to pumpkin patches and other costly autumn entertainments can be overwhelming for the wallet sometimes.
Sure, there are budget-friendly things to look forward to like Friendsgiving dinner and Halloween parties, but what about the remaining days of fall?

- Go to a community sunflower farm
- Find a good book at a library and spend the day reading
- You can also borrow a dog from 鶹ýӳPublic Library and read poetry to it
- Or visit some of Vancouver's whimsical book stores
- Make a custom passport catering to yours and your friends' interests, like this Vancouverite
