How far can $100 actually get you in Bermuda?

We gave three Bermudians a simple challenge: plan a day for themselves with $100 and don't spend a dollar more. From self-care and good food to an almost island-wide adventure, here's how they would spend it.

JOANNE BALL-BURGESS

If I had $100 to spend in Bermuda, I'd spend it on a typical self-care Saturday.

Every Saturday, I wake up early to teach yoga at Driftwood Spa at Hamilton Princess. After teaching class, I'd make my usual stop at One29 on Front Street for an iced latte ($8) and a protein bar ($4), then head to the gym.

Let's imagine this is one of those rare Saturdays that's completely mine. After the gym and a shower, I'd treat myself to a classic manicure at Spa Oasis ($70).

With the money left over, I'd stop by Pronto for a container of cut pineapple ($7.99) and a package of blueberries ($7.69), two of my favourite snacks.

Then I'd head home, settle into my garden and enjoy the fruit while taking in the flowers and trees. If it's a chilly day, I'd happily swap the garden for the couch, turn on Netflix and enjoy a quiet afternoon.

The spend: Iced latte $8 + protein bar $4 + manicure $70 + pineapple $7.99 + blueberries $7.69 = $97.68

TARIQ LYNCH-WADE

I'd start my $100 day in the East End with a Green Goddess scrambled egg sandwich from Temptations ($10.95), followed by a walk along the harbour and a stop at Rubis Dowling's Marine & Auto Service Station for a 1.5-litre bottle of water (about $5).

From there, I'd catch the St George's to Dockyard ferry using a one-day bus and ferry pass ($19).

Once in Dockyard, I'd catch the bus to Black Bay for a quick dip and check out Sea Glass Beach next door. Then I'd hop back on the bus to grab a to-go slice of pizza from Il Pomodoro ($5) before heading to Church Bay for another swim.

At the top of Church Bay, Snow Kings is a must. I'd get a medium snow cone for around $7 — guava, pineapple ginger and Tiger's Blood.

After that, I'd bus it into Hamilton for a Southwest salad with pulled chicken ($16) and a bottle of water ($3) from Wild Greens. I'd take it down to Albouy's Point and enjoy my meal with the ocean as my backdrop.

I'd walk around town for a bit, then probably catch a bus to Admiralty House to explore the caves and have another swim before heading back into Hamilton for a drop-in Sanda Chinese kickboxing class at Aries Sports Centre ($27).

After burning those calories, I'd have $7.05 left, so I'd stop at Jamaican Grill on Court Street for a beef patty ($6) before bussing it back home.

The spend: Breakfast $10.95 + water $5 + transportation $19 + pizza $5 + snow cone $7 + salad $16 + water $3 + kickboxing $27 + beef patty $6 = $98.95

KORRIN LIGHTBOURNE

I'd start with a light breakfast from Taste The Rainbow for around $15: a medium cornmeal porridge, fried dumpling and beef patty.

I like their patty crust — the texture isn't too flaky or too chewy. The cornmeal porridge is always well spiced, to me, and the fried dumpling is perfect to dip in the porridge. It's a good way to start the day feeling nourished and soulful.

Next, I'd spend around $50 on a haircut and wash at Modern Gent. Because why not get a hair wash and head massage after your haircut? It's a form of therapy — mind you don't fall asleep in the chair.

Then I'd head to Wild Greens for my customised Kale Caesar Salad for around $25. I get it with pulled chicken and add corn, avocado, goat's cheese and candied pecans. It's both hearty and healthy and full of flavour. You can't go wrong here.

For my last $10, I'd run over to Snowys to see what size snowball I can get — lemon lime, sour apple and blue raspberry.

Because who says no to a snowball? A Snowys one at that. Keep the culture alive.

The spend: Breakfast $15 + haircut and wash $50 + salad $25 + snowball $10 = $100
