[...] Frugal Things To Do In St. Louis by One Caveman’s Financial Journey. I visited many, many moons ago and was inside the arch. I’ll have to go back one day. Maybe a car trip is on the horizon? [...]

I thought about adding the Botanical Garden, but I thought it was further away from the city than it is. My mistake. I’ll get that added in shortly. Thanks for making me take a 2nd look on that.

The Katy Trail is awesome. I used to live near it in the middle of the state. I need to travel out there again with my new bike.

Great post! Saves me the trouble. :-)

In the city area, I’d add the Missouri Botanical Garden: http://www.mobot.org. It is great any time, but they also have neat festivals.

Out west, I’d add the Katy Trail: http://www.bikekatytrail.com. Travelers can even rent a bike from at least one place, maybe more.

Many moons ago I visited St Louis. The arch was real exciting!

I’d love to be able to make it out that way at some point, but as of now, I’ve not made the jump over! I guess I’ll have to stick to frugal things over here on the west coast for now!

Next time either of you are coming in town, drop me an email and I’ll see if I can’t show you around or at least hook you up with some special deals.

PT – I thought about including the City Museum because it’s really cool, but at $12 a head for ages 3 and up, I didn’t feel it fit the “frugal” bit when there were so many other worthy and less expensive options available.

Pete – Saint Louis is definitely a town to visit. The limited exposure you get with a business trip can’t really give you a real opportunity to see what the town has to offer.

I’ve been to St. Louis only once, for a business trip. I didn’t get to see or do very much while I was there. Hopefully I’ll be able to go again and visit some of the places you’re mentioning!
