I met my DW while we were both working in a dishroom. Our wedding cost $25. For the honeymoon we hitchhicked across the country (Illinois to the West coast) and back. We started with less than $10, did odd jobs along the way, and came back with over $30. That was 1975. We haven't hitchhicked or done yard work for dinner in a long time. I can't say that I miss it, but it was definately an experience I value.
