Maybe where you live. It costs like $6 for a small roll here. Glad wrap is only like a bit over $2 for double the amount
Go talk to your grandmother or someone cool and have them tell you all the weird stories of their laif. Free and you get a stronger bond out of it
A tornado hit us last year. We didn't have power for two weeks. Clean things, start a garden (seeds aren't free, but they're cheap, reuse food containers for pots), read books, cook over a campfire (it's easy to find free wood), go on a hike, watch a sunrise or sunset, write in a journal, find a place to volunteer, ride the bus or train around town (not free either but very cheap for a day pass), if you have a pet play with them or brush their fur, draw pictures on the sidewalks with limestone or sandstones (we call these chalk rocks because they're free chalk), put together a science experiment with common household items, reorganize something, search outside for lizards or bugs, put up a booby trap, go to a protest, floss your teeth, search for arrowheads, go Geocaching (like scavenger hunts but on a very large scale, look it up), rip apart cars at a junk yard, explore an abandoned building, put the phone down, go outside...there's tons of stuff out there.
She has dimensha how ever the fúck write it and i cut her from my life years ago. Me n my dad dont own our own home like everyone else in the family so we got cut off only contacted when they wanted money. So i was like fuck it. Might be related by blood but not my family no more. Also my nana and grandad dont talk about their past they dont dont like saying what their name is. Idk why they never say i guess at its nazi related in some way coz they were alive in that war but idk. Its just what ive always gone with coz they wont say why
I got my grandma a guided journal about her life story to fill out during lockdown. She loves it, she's almost finished it. 10/10 would reccomend this product for grandparents Christmas presents this year.
