I need ideas for a wedding shower and bachelorette party?

I am the maid of honor in my best friends wedding. I am throwing the wedding shower and bachelorette party. Ive been reading ideas online for both but everything requires lots of money. Im on a TINY budget and was wondering if anyone had free or cheap ideas of things to do.
Answer
A shower is fairly inexpensive depending on how many people you invite. Let's say you invite 20 people. Invites will run you about $30-$40. Then food. You can go as cheap as you want for that. I'd say punch, a cake, and a few sandwiches/puff pastries will run you about $50. You should have a co-host split it with you as I imagine you aren't having it at your own house. Then that would be about $50 each.
If that's too much, do some things yourself. Instead of buying a couple flower arrangements for the table, pick your own. Instead of buying frozen quiches or puff pastries at a warehouse club, make sandwiches yourself. Make chicken salad croissants and cucumber sandwiches. Then you could cut the cost in about half.
For a bachelorette party, how many girls are you inviting? It's not just the wedding party that's invited. I'd say the average number is between 7 and 15 girls. Ask them what their budget is. For $20 a person you can do a fair amount.
My bachelorette party we went to dinner at a restaurant that was doing buy one get one free appetizers. We all passed them around the table and it ended up being $8 a person for 2 appetizers each (though I don't think we actually ordered that much). Then we went to a few bars with ladies get in free. Then after about 1 drink, people started buying the bachelorette party drinks. Including buying my drinks, I think that ended up being about $15 per person over 3 bars. So my total was about $25 per person.
There are so many things you can do--it depends on the girls. For an older friend of mine, they hired a chef for about $300. They spent $200 on wine. That was only $25 per person since they had 20 people.
For another friend who had known her bridesmaids since they were 5, they had a sleepover like the old days. A lot of old 80s movies, popcorn and margaritas all night. That was something like $30 total as they got the bucket of margaritas from bed bath and beyond and popcorn is super cheap. Someone put the movies on their netflix.
My groom went camping for his bachelor party. A campsite is about $20-$30. Between beer, food, wood for the fire, gas to get there and other stuff I think everyone put in $30. They rented 2 campsites and between the whole group, tents and sleeping bags were covered. However I've been to campsites that already had tents set up for you.
You could tour wineries. When we were out in California we rented an 8 passenger limo. It was about $40 per person. Many wineries are free and the ones that aren't have roughly a $5 tasting fee. You could easily just do free ones though. Oregon, Virginia, NC--all have a ton of wineries.
One thing I've heard of some people doing is going to an amusement park. That ends up being close to $60 per person though once you have parking and food thrown in but there are lots of outdoorsy things you can do. Minor league baseball games come to mind. You could go to the beach for a day trip. A cooler filled with ice and drinks for the day, and stopping for a meal on the way down and back would be all. Probably close to $30 per person.
Some couples do a backyard bbq type of thing and just grill out burgers at the pool. Yes some girls go to the spa for the day or do some luxury trip to NYC and spend several hundred but I don't know any of them. Most people get married in their mid20s and most of their friends are poor.
